How Far We Have Come, How Far We Have Yet to Go in Atherosclerosis Research

Knowledge Representation: How far we have come?

The theory of Knowledge Representation has been one of the central focuses in Artificial Intelligence research over the past 60 years which has seen numerous proposals and debates ranging from very philosophical and theoretical level to practical issues. Although a lot of work has been done in this area, we believe currently, it does not receive enough attention from the research community, exc...

The last 80 years in primary immunodeficiency: how far have we come, how far need we go?

Meningococcal serogroup C conjugate vaccination in Canada: how far have we progressed? How far do we have to go?

Since routine meningococcal C conjugate vaccination was introduced into Canada in 2002, there have been a large regional variation in the routine programs, changes to the timing of the infant series in some provinces, and wide differences in catch-up programs. As immunization is viewed as a provincial responsibility, less attention has been paid to determining national coverage rates and the di...

Influenza and pneumococcal vaccination: how far we have come and how to go farther.

The recent outbreak of avian influenza in Asia is a timely reminder of the ever present possibility of a human influenza pandemic in the near future. Work continues to develop vaccines effective against emergent influenza strains, but another component of effective prevention and infection control programs is the ability to administer vaccine in a timely and efficient manner. Even in the absenc...

Understanding Bioluminescence in Dinoflagellates—How Far Have We Come?

Some dinoflagellates possess the remarkable genetic, biochemical, and cellular machinery to produce bioluminescence. Bioluminescent species appear to be ubiquitous in surface waters globally and include numerous cosmopolitan and harmful taxa. Nevertheless, bioluminescence remains an enigmatic topic in biology, particularly with regard to the organisms' lifestyle. In this paper, we review the li...
