We review some of the salient results presented at this Workshop, together with some comments on the underlying physics, and the proposed facilities for future experiments. ISN 93–17 February 5, 2008. Invited talk at the Workshop on Spin and Flavour in Hadronic and Electromagnetic Interactions, Turin, September 1992, to appear in the Proceedings SPIN AND FLAVOUR: CONCLUDING REMARKS

Salicylic acid (SA) is a key defense signal molecule against biotrophic and hemibiotrophic pathogens in plants, but how SA is synthesized in plant cells still remains elusive. Identification of new components involved in pathogen-induced SA accumulation would help address this question. To this end, we performed a large-scale genetic screen for mutants with altered SA accumulation during pathog...

As this paper has described, methods are available for addressing all of the reasons organizations choose the wrong projects, including quantitative methods for identifying projects on the efficient frontier. Some organizations that regularly make high-stakes, project-selection decisions (e.g. some financial institutions, oil and gas exploration companies, pharmaceutical companies, some high-te...

The notion that biological systems come to embody optimal solutions seems consistent with the competitive drive of evolution. It has been used to interpret many examples of sensorimotor behavior. It is attractive from the viewpoint of control engineers because it solves the redundancy problem by identifying the one optimal motor strategy out of many similarly acceptable possibilities. This pers...
