A gene library that goes "moo"

This Goes with This Goes with That: Maximising the Modular Approach in Library Systems

Libraries for many years have been trying to make the information-seeking process easier and more convenient for users. USQ Library, with its high proportion of off-campus students, has felt this challenge more keenly than most. Over the last 18 months, the Library has implemented federated search, interlibrary loans and off-campus delivery through a single interface, branded “DocEx”. This pape...

A Risk Measure That Goes beyond Coherence

There are more to a risk-measure than being coherent. Both the popular VaR and the coherent Tail-VaR ignore useful information in a large part of the loss distribution; As a result they lack incentive for risk-management. I propose a new coherent risk-measure that utilizes information in the whole loss distribution and provides incentive for risk-management.

A GTPase that goes both ways

Survival gets more complicated NTF and related proteins have been shown to promote the survival of motoneurons in two different settings: during embryonic development and after nerve injury in adults. Because the signal and the response are apparently the same in the two situations, a simple explanation is that embryonic and adult neurons use the same signaling pathways to promote survival. But...

There Goes the (Gene Expression) Neighbourhood Theory

The production of proteins from their respective genes is a tightly regulated process that helps cells conserve energy while ensuring they have the raw materials needed to perform basic life processes. The expression of any particular gene can be controlled by various mechanisms, including the actions of transcription factors and repressors, and epigenetic factors such as DNA methylation or chr...
