New avenue to nanoscale architecture

New avenue to inhibit Ras signaling.

Inhibition of Ras-stimulating enzymes is a possible avenue to treat Ras-driven diseases. In this issue of Chemistry & Biology, Evelyn and coworkers report an inhibitor for one such enzyme, Sos1, capable of impairing wild-type Ras signaling in cells.

Cerebellar neurocognition: a new avenue.

The functional role of the cerebellum is traditionally defined as a mere coordinator of automatic and somatic motor functions. This view determined most of the clinical and experimental investigations of the functions of the cerebellum and overshadowed many attempts to expand its role to non-motor functions. However, during the past decades the collaboration across contemporary neuroscience dis...

Generalized Parton Distributions: a New Avenue to Color Transparency Phenomena

Color Transparency studies have been since long suggested as a means to study the occurrence and relevance of small size hadronic configurations, predicted within QCD to dominate exclusive scattering processes, by monitoring the passage of hadrons through the nuclear medium at large four momentum transfer, Q. The validation through experiments of this picture – the dominance of short separation...
