Influenza Viruses: Breaking All the Rules
Influenza A viruses (IAV) are significant pathogens able to repeatedly switch hosts to infect multiple avian and mammalian species, including humans. The unpredictability of IAV evolution and interspecies movement creates continual public health challenges, such as the emergence of the 2009 pandemic H1N1 virus from swine, as well as pandemic threats from the ongoing H5N1 and the recent H7N9 epi...
متن کاملBreaking All the Rules : The Compact Symmetric Object 0402 + 379
We present results of multi-frequency VLBA observations of the compact symmetric object (CSO) 0402+379. The parsec-scale morphology of 0402+379 allows us to confirm it as a CSO, while VLA data clearly show the presence of kiloparsec-scale structure. Thus, 0402+379 is only the second known CSO to possess large scale structure. Another puzzling morphological characteristic found from our observat...

Now, just over two years later, questions raised by the interpretation of the fossil abound. In a series of recent papers, critics have qu...
متن کاملAll About Mitochondrial Eve: An Interview with Rebecca Cann
In unearthing the genetic history of human populations, the recent pace of discovery has been so rapid that we can lose sight of the impact made by a single paper. In a 1987 Nature article, Rebecca Cann and her co-workers, Mark Stoneking and the late Allan Wilson, painstakingly analyzed mitochondrial DNA purified from placentas that had been collected from women of many different ancestral orig...
متن کاملThe great oxidation event: an expert discussion on the causes, the processes, and the still unknowns. Interview by Frances Westall.
Dr. Frances Westall (FW): Let’s begin with each of you giving an overview as to the importance of biogenic processes in the rise of oxygen—oxygenic photosynthesis. Lee, would you like to begin? Dr. Lee Kump (LK): What is really interesting about the history of atmospheric oxygenation is that there is this event or interval of change from an anoxic Archean atmosphere to an oxygenated post-Archea...
