How do I decide which assignments/activities to make collaborative? — A good rule of thumb is that if there's no reason for an activity to be collaborative, perhaps it shouldn't be. As you contemplate making a project collaborative, consider these questions: What is the objective or goal of this assignment or activity? How will that objective be furthered by asking students to work in groups? I...

No Question about Exciting Questions in Cell Biology

Although we have a good grasp of many important processes in cell biology, including knowledge of many molecules involved and how they interact with each other, we still do not understand most of the dynamical features that are the essence of living systems. Fortunately, we now have the ability to dissect biological systems in enough detail to understand their dynamics, including the use of mat...

Fundamental Questions in Biology

The anti-tumour antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) capacity of the conventional antibody ml7-IA was compared with its chimerised analogue c17-lA and a newer chimeric antibody. cSF25. specific for colonic adenocarcinoma. The results (AUC units±s.e.m.. control versus cancer) show that mononuclear cells from patients with adenocarcinoma mediate ADCC as efficiently as those from c...
