From the inside out: radionuclide radiation therapy

From the inside, looking out

Kitchens play a role in the daily life of the family. Kitchens in rural areas of developing countries have some specific characteristics in common; lack of comfort, difficult access to water, poor structures, lack of efficient ventilation, and a lot of smoke. The studies about kitchens have been analyzing diverse aspects, like the stove, the functions, and the climate. Little, if nothing was st...

Studying the Mind from the Inside Out

Good research requires, among other virtues, (i) methods that yield stable experimental observations without arbitrary (post hoc) assumptions, (ii) logical interpretations of the sources of observations, and (iii) sound inferences to general causal mechanisms explaining experimental results by placing them in larger explanatory contexts. In The New Phrenology, William Uttal examines the researc...

α-Tubulin acetylation from the inside out.

P osttranslational modification of proteins, including phosphorylation, ubiquitylation, and acetylation, is an important means of signaling and functional specialization in the cell. The acetylation of lysine residues is best understood in histone proteins, in which histone acetyltransferases modify histone tail sequences to regulate chromatin structure. However, lysine acetylation has recently...

Operating the Cloud from Inside Out

Virtual machine images and instances (VMs) in cloud computing centres are typically designed as isolation containers for applications, databases and networking functions. In order to build complex distributed applications, multiple virtual machines must be connected, orchestrated and combined with platform and infrastructure services from the hosting environment. There are several reasons why s...
