Axiological and epistemological contributions to teaching the theory of evolution Darwin [PDF]

Investigações em Ensino de Ciências, 2011
From the essential role of theme “biological evolution” in scientific formation of students and the diversity of issues identified in the literature for teaching of the same, we developed a qualitative study through contributions of Didactics of Science ...

Linguistic Change and Biological Evolution

, 2020
Early conceptualizations of evolution, e.g. by Charles Darwin, saw similarities in the evolution of languages and of biological species. This similarity has been disputed at times, but in recent decades linguists have again started looking at how biology studies evolution.

Some Computational Aspects of Essential Properties of Evolution and Life [PDF]

, 2012
While evolution has inspired algorithmic methods of heuristic optimisation, little has been done in the way of using concepts of computation to advance our understanding of salient aspects of biological evolution.

Mechanisms of IgE‐mediated food allergy and the role of allergen‐specific B cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Food allergy arises when allergen‐specific B cells preferentially produce immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies against harmless foods. This article explains the mechanisms driving IgE‐mediated reactions, highlights the central role of these B cells, and discusses how natural tolerance (NT) and oral immunotherapy (OIT) can reshape allergic immune responses.

Psychopathological Implications of Behavioral Patterns in Obsessive–Compulsive Rituals: A Hierarchical Analysis

Brain Sciences
Background/Objectives: Compulsive rituals in Obsessive–Compulsive Disorder (OCD) are characterized by a specific motor structure, built upon the fragmentation of action flow, obtained through act repetitions and the intrusion of non-functional acts.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

The Basics of Evolution Strategies: The Implementation of the Biomimetic Optimization Method in Educational Modules

Biomimetics
With a focus on education and teaching, we provide general background information on bioinspired optimization methods by comparing the concept of optimization and the search for an optimum in engineering and biology.
