Height and Cognitive Function among Older Europeans: Do People from “Tall” Countries have Superior Cognitive Abilities?

Height and Cognitive Function among Older Europeans: Do People from “Tall” Countries Have Superior Cognitive Abilities? Previous research has found that height is correlated with cognitive functioning at older ages. It therefore makes sense to ask a related question: do people from countries where the average person is relatively tall have superior cognitive abilities on average? Using data fro...

So how do you know you have a macromolecular complex?

Protein in crystal form is at an extremely high concentration and yet retains the complex secondary structure that defines an active protein. The protein crystal itself is made up of a repeating lattice of protein-protein and protein-solvent interactions. The problem that confronts any crystallographer is to identify those interactions that represent physiological interactions and those that do...

How Tall Is Tall? Compositionality, Statistics, and Gradable Adjectives

What is tall? Like many words, tall is fundamentally compositional in meaning — whether an item is tall depends on the statistical properties of the set of items it is being compared to. Despite preliminary evidence to this effect, no mathematical models of how tall operates in a given context have ever been empirically evaluated. We compare a number of statistical models to adults and children...

Neutrinos Have Mass – so What ?

In this brief review, I discuss the new physics unveiled by neutrino oscillation experiments over the past several years, and discuss several attempts at understanding the mechanism behind neutrino masses and lepton mixing. It is fair to say that, while significant theoretical progress has been made, we are yet to construct a coherent picture that naturally explains non-zero, yet tiny, neutrino...

How Do so Few Control so Many?

The separation of sister chromatids at the metaphase-to-anaphase transition is triggered by a protease called separase that is activated by the destruction of an inhibitory chaperone (securin). This process is mediated by a ubiquitin protein ligase called the anaphase-promoting complex or cyclosome (APC/C), along with a protein called Cdc20. It is vital that separase not be activated before eve...
