Due to the rapid growth of wireless technology, there has been a growing interest in the capabilities of ad hoc networks connecting mobile phones, PDAs and laptop computers. The distributed and self-configurable capabilities of ad hoc networks make them very attractive for some applications such as tactical communication for military,...
TAC is the most commonly used medication in post transplantation maintenance immunosuppression therapy. TAC lipophilicity and its erratic oral absorption especially in the presence of food intake result in great intra- and interpatient pharmacokinetic variations. Complicated dosing and frequent required therapeutic monitoring is thought to be the main cause of...
L. C. Dunn (1893-1974) spent most of his scientific career conducting research in
developmental genetics as a member of the Zoology Department at Columbia
University in the City of New York. He had an accomplished scientific career
researching mutations in mice, which earned him respect from other geneticists and

My thesis, entitled "Fantastic Histories: How Malory's Morte Darthur
Influenced Tolkien's The Silmarillion," argues that J.R.R. Tolkien's Silmarillion

In the educational wave that is sweeping our country from ocean to ocean, technical education is at its crest, and no phase is more popular than domestic science. Indeed it has such a hold upon public opinion that it is quite the fashion, a commendable fact, for as soon as...
The nucleosome appears to be the basic structural unit of the
eukaryotic chromosome. The usual nucleosome preparation, isolated
from a micrococcal nuclease digest of nuclei, is heterogenous in DNA
length and protein composition with some particles containing spacer
DNA and associated protein. This heterogeneity complicated physical
and reconstitution studies. As...
