Genetically Linked Scientists

Genetically Linked Scientists

The comprehensive report in this issue by Ranger et al. (1) is a landmark contribution for several reasons: first, it identifies an important regulatory agent that functions in several diverse mesenchymal pathways; second, it shows that transcription factors that affect differentiation pathways in adults are not necessarily prominent in embryonic events; third, it documents that alert and inqui...

Attitudes of agricultural scientists in Indonesia towards genetically modified foods.

Conflicting arguments and partial truths on genetically modified (GM) foods have left confusion. Although studies of consumer acceptance of GM foods are numerous, the study of scientists is limited. Therefore, the main objective of this study was to assess the attitudes of scientists towards GM foods. The study was a cross sectional study. A total of 400 scientists (involved in at least one of ...

Genetically linked site-specificity of disuse osteoporosis.

UNLABELLED The genetic influence on bone loss in response to mechanical unloading was investigated within diaphyseal and distal femoral regions in three genetically distinct strains of mice. One mouse strain failed to lose bone after removal of function, whereas osteopenia was evident in multiple regions of the remaining two strains but in different areas of the bone. INTRODUCTION It is well ...

Linked Data Services for Scientists Exemplified Using Drosophila Melanogaster Datasets

Semantic technologies allow scientists to rapidly integrate data from experimental datasets and online databases. On the computational side, the massive scale of these datasets poses some challenges. We find that there are additional challenges on the human side. Problems we encounter in practice include translating human questions to SPARQL queries, adjusting data models and ontologies to matc...
