Introductory remarks: Drug-induced toxicity and toxicokinetics

Introductory remarks: Session on genetic factors affecting pollutant toxicity.

Occupational and environmental toxicologists are faced with the responsibility of providing sound scientific data that can be used to ensure individuals that they can conduct their daily activities without undergoing any undue risk which might potentiate the development of disease. With the majority of chemicals in the environment, it has been generally assumed that there is some safe level of ...

Some new models are being developed to aid in studying PMS.

Introductory Remarks

We first review B-splines and splines constructed using B-splines as the basis functions.

Introductory Remarks

Is this a math course or a physics course? General relativity is taught in the mathematics department at the undergraduate level (as well as the physics department at the graduate level) because – • There are faculty members in the math department doing research in areas related to general relativity. • An introductory GR course requires a large dose of special mathematics, not encountered in o...
