Stem Cell Research and Other Cell-Related Controversies
Infobase Publishing 2011; US$ 37.50Scientific progress often sparks disputes about the meaning of a discovery, the research methods, and the possible uses of new technology. From the debate about teaching evolution in public schools to the modern controversies of ownership that arise in the context of gene patenting and medical tissues, there have been many ethical and religious arguments... more...
Power, Sex, Suicide
OUP Oxford 2005; US$ 16.99Mitochondria are tiny structures located inside our cells that carry out the essential task of producing energy for the cell. They are found in all complex living things, and in that sense, they are fundamental for driving complex life on the planet. But there is much more to them than that. Mitochondria have their own DNA, with their own small collection... more...
Advances in Cell Mechanics
Springer 2011; US$ 139.99"Advances in Cell Mechanics" presents the latest developments in cell mechanics and biophysics, mainly focusing on interdisciplinary research in cell biology and the biophysics of cells. Moreover, a unique feature of the book is its emphasis on the molecular and complex continuum modeling and simulations of the cells. It may be the first... more...
Modeling Fragile X Syndrome
Springer 2011; US$ 169.99This title contains: Introduction; Probing Astrocyte Function in Fragile X Syndrome; Neural Stem Cells; Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP) and the Spinal Sensory System; The Role of the Postsynaptic Density in the Pathology of the Fragile X Syndrome; Behavior in a Drosophila model of Fragile X; Molecular and Genetic Analysis of the Drosophila... more...
Control of Cell Fate in the Circulatory and Ventilatory Systems
Springer 2011; US$ 159.99The volumes in this authoritative series present a multidisciplinary approach to modeling and simulation of flows in the cardiovascular and ventilatory systems, especially multiscale modeling and coupled simulations. The cardiovascular and respiratory systems are tightly coupled, as their primary function is to supply oxygen to and remove carbon dioxide... more...
The Nucleolus
Springer 2011; US$ 169.99Within the past two decades, extraordinary new functions for the nucleolus have begun to appear, giving the field a new vitality and generating renewed excitement and interest. These new discoveries include both newly-discovered functions and aspects of its conventional role. "The Nucleolus" is divided into three parts: nucleolar structure... more...
Ribosomes
Springer 2011; US$ 169.99The ribosome is a macromolecular machine that synthesizes proteins with a high degree of speed and accuracy. Our present understanding of its structure, function and dynamics is the result of six decades of research. This book collects over 40 articles based on the talks presented at the 2010 Ribosome Meeting, held in Orvieto, Italy, covering all facets... more...
Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Springer 2012; US$ 39.99Induced Pluripotent Stem (iPS) cells are mature cells that have been genetically reprogrammed so that they return to their embryonic state. It is not yet known if iPS stem cells and embryonic stem cells differ significantly. Today many fundamental belief systems in biology are shifting towards accepting that mature body cells can be reverted to an... more...
Atlas of Human Pluripotent Stem Cells
Springer 2011; US$ 109.99Human pluripotent stem cells, including human embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells, are a key focus of current biomedical research. The emergence of state of the art culturing techniques is promoting the realization of the full potential of pluripotent stem cells in basic and translational research and in cell-based therapies. This... more...
