QnAs with Alan Hastings.

چکیده
Theoretical ecology uses conceptual and mathematical models, computer simulations, and data analysis to study ecological systems. Alan Hastings, a Distinguished Professor of Environmental Science and Policy at the University of California, Davis, has contributed significantly to the development of this field over the past four decades. Much of his research uses mathematical models of population dynamics to explore various applied ecological problems, including natural resource management and invasive species control. He also founded the journal Theoretical Ecology and coedited The Encyclopedia of Theoretical Ecology (1). His contributions to theoretical ecology have earned Hastings numerous awards, including the Robert H. MacArthur Award from the Ecological Society of America in 2006 and election to the National Academy of Sciences in 2016. In his Inaugural Article (2), Hastings developed a framework for studying a common problem in fisheries management. PNAS spoke with Hastings about his career and current research.

QnAs with Alan G. Hinnebusch.
The central dogma of molecular biology states that information in DNA is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA), which is in turn translated into proteins by structures called ribosomes. Lengths of mRNA strands vary, but all mRNAs use codons, sets of three nucleotide bases, to instruct the ribosome where to begin protein synthesis, what proteins to produce, and when to stop. Alan G. Hinnebusch, ...
