Taking a Closer Look at RecQ Helicase with Nanopore Tweezers

Taking a closer look at IBD.

Healthcare professionals caring for patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) in 2013 are equipped with significantly better knowledge about the disease, its variations, course and complications than in years gone by. Treatment options are improving, and perhaps more importantly, our knowledge of when and how to use existing treatments is becoming sharper. For these reasons, we have deci...

Taking a Closer Look at a Simple Bipos Language Model

Scanning probe microscopy: Taking a closer look at conductivity.

protected these proteins and maintained cell adhesion. Western blot analysis of brain tissues for various signalling molecules known to promote cell survival implied the involvement of the PI3/Akt pathway in mediating the benefits of the treatment. When compared with other formulations of carbon nanotubes (raw and carboxyl-functionalized tubes), aminemodified nanotubes provided the best protect...

Revision vs. Update: Taking a Closer Look

Belief revision and belief update are two of the most important types of belief change. Although similar in some ways, these two processes are believed to be fundamentally different. In this paper we take a closer look at belief revision (as formalized by Alchourrón, Gärdenfors and Makinson [1]) and belief update (as modelled by Katsuno and Mendelzon [4]). The results we obtain herein show that...
