Only two genome-wide significant loci associated with longevity have been identified so far, probably because of insufficient sample sizes of centenarians, whose genomes may harbor genetic variants associated with health and longevity. Here we report a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of Han Chinese with a sample size 2.7 times the...
A five year longitudinal study was begun in 1976 to find a
solution to the problem of early primary children who fail in school
and then adopt the failure syndrome. The study was conducted in four
elementary schools in Oregon which had distinctly different
socio-economic populations.

In this project we measure the neutron capture cross section of ²⁰⁸Pb. We began by calibrating our silicon detector with ²⁰⁴Tl. Two experiments were then performed, the first in December of 1999 and the second in March of 2000. Both experiments were performed in the nuclear reactor of the Radiation...
In 1959 the British Ornithological journal, The Ibis, published a centenary commemorative volume on the history of ornithology in Britain. Over the previous few decades, the contributors to this volume had helped focus the attention of ornithologists on the methods, priorities, and problems of modem biology, specifically the theory ofevolution...
This study documented the history of the development and practice of the

increased demand for long-term care-givers were the antecedents for a paradigm shift
to "caring with" persons based upon the theory of esca developed by
M. Lucille Kinlein. Interested...
