The approximate solvability of a system of nonlinear variational inequalities involving two relaxed cocoercive mappings in Hilbert spaces is considered by exploiting projection methods. The results presented in this paper extend and improve the main results of Chang et al. [1], Verma [2, 3 ,4], Xiu and Zhang [5] and Nie et al. [6].

Circular RNAs are generated during splicing through various mechanisms. Ashwal-Fluss et al. demonstrate that exon circularization and linear splicing compete with each other in a tissue-specific fashion, and Zhang et al. show that exon circularization depends on flanking intronic complementary sequences. Both papers show that several types of circular RNA transcripts can be produced from a sing...

In this issue of Neuron, Zhang et al. (2016) develop a novel approach to generate populations of human astrocytes to uncover their uniquely human traits.

Since Pauling and Zuckerkandl first suggested it more than 40 years ago, the idea of reconstructing ancestral proteins and DNA sequences from the information contained in sequences of present day species has held considerable fascination (Pauling & Zuckerkandl, 1963). Such reconstructions can provide a unifying framework for understanding the molecular origins and evolution of key components in...

Convection-diffusion equations are widely used for modeling and simulations of various complex phenomena in science and engineering (Hundsdorfer & Verwer, 2003; Morton, 1996). Since for most application problems it is impossible to solve convection-diffusion equations analytically, efficient numerical algorithms are becoming increasingly important to numerical simulations involving convection-d...

Mesoderm induction was first demonstrated by Pieter Nieuwkoop in 1969. By recombining animal and vegetal explants, which would in isolation originate ectoderm and endoderm, respectively, mesoderm formed from the animal cap cells (Nieuwkoop, 1969). Successive research has identified candidate mesoderm inducers within the TGFβ and FGF families of molecules (reviewed in Harland and Gerhart, 1997)....

Zhang et al ([2]) recently propose another approach to the face algorithm [1]. This note gives a modification of the result.
