GEOPHYSICS: Looking Beneath the Surface

Looking beneath the surface.

Looking beneath the surface: the cell death pathway of Fas/APO-1 (CD95).

SUMMARY The biochemical basis of programmed cell death is poorly understood in mammals. The cell surface receptor Fas/APO-1 (CD95) is one molecule known to be central to a number of mammalian cell death processes. Several studies in the past year have led to insights about the role of Fas/APO-1 in vivo and have also given some clues about the biochemical components of the Fas/APO-1 death pathwa...

Learning to read in Williams syndrome: looking beneath the surface of atypical reading development.

In this paper, we make a fundamental distinction between literacy attainment scores and the actual process of learning to read, and examine these two aspects of reading in atypical development. Reading skills in a group of children and adults with the genetic disorder Williams syndrome (WS) were compared to a group of typically developing children matched for reading age and receptive vocabular...

n his 1988 article [1] and 1995 book [2], Roald Hoffmann looked "Under the Surface of the Chemical A-rticle." In these, Hoffmann examines the 'rvorkings of chemistry that are not evident on the surface of a printed page or a luminescent screen. He provides an important semiotic analysis of horv we represent and communicate scientific ideas and the impact of these on scientifrc practice. As a ca...
