The Eisenberg plot or hydrophobic moment plot methodology is one of the most frequently used methods of bioinformatics. Bioinformatics is more and more recognized as a helpful tool in Life Sciences in general, and recent developments in approaches recognizing lipid binding regions in proteins are promising in this respect. In this study a bioinformatics approach specialized in identifying lipid...

—We give two natural generalizations of Fisher’s market model: In model M1, sellers can declare an upper bound on the money they wish to earn (and take back their unsold good), and in model M2, buyers can declare an upper bound on the amount to utility they wish to derive (and take back the unused part of their money). —We derive convex programs for the linear case of these two models by genera...

Molecularly targeted therapy is a hot topic in oncology, and the development of imatinib mesylate (Gleevec) for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) is one of our best examples of the successful translation of basic science research into effective treatment of malignancy. Dr. Eisenberg has thoroughly researched the impetus for the use of imatinib in GISTs and has methodically reviewed the re...

THE present study is one of a series comparing the relative effectiveness of various pretreatments in making initially unquestioned beliefs resistant to change when subsequently the person is forced to expose himself to strong counterarguments against the belief. The theoretical point of departure of the present and the earlier studies is the postulate of "selective exposure." Initially strong ...

a r t i c l e i n f o Parents socialize children's emotion through active, purposeful strategies and through their own expressivity; yet little research has examined whether parents are inconsistent within or between these socialization domains. The author presents a heuristic model of inconsistency in parents' emotion socialization. Parents (M age = 34.8 years, 85% mothers) of preschool-aged c...
