چکیده
The Baird’s tapir is the largest land mammal living in Mexican Selva Maya, which tropical forest America after Amazon. Tapirs are herbivores that play a key role maintaining health of forests by dispersing seeds their feces (poop). mysterious, silent, and nocturnal characteristics make them difficult to study. In our research, we analyzed microbes tapirs’ understand populations Maya. We found large amount variety fecal associated with healthy ecosystem. Maybe analysis wildlife can be used as gentle technique help us status animals environments they live.

In this issue of Endocrinology, there is a rapid communication by Mahato et al. (1) that addresses the issue of estrogen action directly on germinal cells in the testis. The authors transplanted germ cells from the testis of the estrogen receptor a (ERa) knockout mice into the seminiferous tubules of germ cell-depleted wild-type mice. The germ cells carrying the knockout mutation underwent qual...

Over the last ten years there has been truly remarkable progress in the study of cold, dilute gases of fermionic atoms in which the scattering length a of the atoms can be controlled experimentally. These systems can be realized in the laboratory using Feshbach resonances, see1) for a review. A small negative scattering length corresponds to a weak attractive interaction between the atoms. This...
متن کاملWhat viruses can teach us about the human immune system
The first and most critical step in a host’s response to viral infection is the recognition of the viral invader by the immune system. This task is carried out by a repertoire of sensor molecules, found in most organisms, that recognize features that are unique to the virus and not found in the host, such as viral double-stranded RNA. The principle that hosts are able to detect specific pathoge...
متن کاملWhat Complex Systems Research Can Teach Us About Collaborative Design
Collaborative design is challenging because strong interdependencies between design issues make it difficult to converge on a single design that satisfies these dependencies and is acceptable to all participants. Complex systems research has much to offer to the understanding of these dynamics. This paper describes some insights from the complex systems perspective. 1. The Challenge: Collaborat...
متن کاملFail better: What formalized mathematics can teach us about learning
Real-life conjectures do not come with instructions saying whether they they should be proven or, instead, refuted. Yet, as we now know, in either case the final argument produced had better be not just convincing but actually verifiable in as much detail as our need for eliminating risk might require. For those who do not happen to have direct access to the realm of mathematical truths, the mo...
