The Evolution of Long-term Care Programs; Comment on “Financing Long-term Care: Lessons From Japan”
The need for long-term care (LTC) represents a “new social risk,” one that overlaps with and complements systems of care that pre-date such programs, complicating LTC program design. This commentary expands on Ikegami’s discussion of how these structural factors must be accommodated, as well as historical and cultural factors that influence public expectations of such a...

متن کاملHow proteins adapt: lessons from directed evolution.
Applying artificial selection to create new proteins has allowed us to explore fundamental processes of molecular evolution. These "directed evolution" experiments have shown that proteins can readily adapt to new functions or environments via simple adaptive walks involving small numbers of mutations. With the entire "fossil record" available for detailed study, these experiments have provided...
متن کاملEvolution of language: Lessons from the genome
The post-genomic era is an exciting time for researchers interested in the biology of speech and language. Substantive advances in molecular methodologies have opened up entire vistas of investigation that were not previously possible, or in some cases even imagined. Speculations concerning the origins of human cognitive traits are being transformed into empirically addressable questions, gener...
متن کاملHow enzymes adapt: lessons from directed evolution.
Enzymes that are adapted to widely different temperature niches are being used to investigate the molecular basis of protein stability and enzyme function. However, natural evolution is complex: random noise, historical accidents and ignorance of the selection pressures at work during adaptation all cloud comparative studies. Here, we review how adaptation in the laboratory by directed evolutio...
