Animal history: New research opportunities

New animal model opens opportunities for research on the female athlete triad.

DIMARCO, DART, AND SANBORN have reported (2) the development of an innovative and important “modified activity-stress paradigm in an animal model of the female athlete triad.” This new animal model opens the opportunity to conduct controlled experiments to investigate many important questions about the female athlete triad that cannot be studied in humans or in short-term protocols with animal ...

New opportunities for European radiation protection research.

Broad New OS Research: Challenges and Opportunities

Contemporary software systems are beset by problems that create challenges and opportunities for broad new OS research. To illustrate, we describe five areas where broad OS research could significantly improve the current user experience. These areas are dependability, security, system configuration, system extension, and multi-processor programming. In each area we explore how contemporary sys...

Roadmap for new opportunities in melanoma research.

Investigators representing all major melanoma research areas present an overview of the most important challenges for the field. Four major research areas are covered plus the training of new investigators. For each area we first describe the present status, its strengths and weaknesses, and then outline specific recommendations. In basic research of melanoma, we outline the pertinent issues fo...

New opportunities in animal breeding and production - an introductory remark.

New opportunities in animal breeding and production will be offered by methods for embryo production and the introduction of precise genetic changes in livestock species. A review of current procedures shows that they have been improved during the last 4 years, but still have significant limitations. In the light of experience over the past 50 years it seems likely that these methods will contr...
