Survival and Resurrection

Resurrection

The golden era of molecular biology has paved the way for us now to tweak, fix, engineer, or even entirely synthesize genomes at levels and scales never seen before. Sequencing technologies continue to improve at exponential rates and have yielded powerful new insights into organisms of the distant past, as well as those that co-inhabit the planet with us. The era of genomics has ushered in the...

Resurrection Plants

Trehalose-6-phosphate synthase (TPS), as the key enzyme for the synthesis of plants trehalose, has effects of enhancing its anti-dehydration, as well as protecting biofilm, proteins, and others from harm. Additionally, reproductive isolation between species can be broken with transgenic technology, and beneficial gene of other species can be transformed and utilized to improve resistance of cro...

Resurrection axioms and uplifting cardinals

We introduce the resurrection axioms, a new class of forcing axioms, and the uplifting cardinals, a new large cardinal notion, and prove that various instances of the resurrection axioms are equiconsistent over ZFC with the existence of an uplifting car-

Resurrection of Tweedledum and Tweedledee

Simultaneously presented signals may be processed in serial or in parallel. One potentially valuable indicant of a system’s characteristics may be the appearance of multi-modality in response time distributions. It is known that standard serial models can predict multimodal RT distributions, but it is unknown whether multimodality is diagnostic of serial systems, or whether alternative architec...
