Multi‐Scaled Cellulosic Nanonetworks from Tunicates
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Microbial and plant nanonetworks of cellulose have enabled a wide range of high‐performance yet sustainable materials. Herein, a third class of cellulosic nanonetworks is showcased by exploiting the only animal tissue‐producing cellulose nanofibers, i.e., ascidians. An ultrastructure including spherical cells and a microvasculature with diameters of 50–

A theory for the tissue specificity of BRCA1/2 related and other hereditary cancers [PDF]
, 2010 Women who inherit a defective BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene have risks for breast and ovarian cancer that are so high and seem so selective that many mutation carriers choose to have prophylactic surgery. There has been much conjecture to explain such apparently

Binding occupational exposure limits for carcinogens in the EU – good or bad?
Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment & Health, 2019 The European Union (EU) has increased its efforts to counteract cancer due to occupational exposure. This is done by several means, including more active use and revision of the Carcinogen Directive (1), launch of the Roadmap on Carcinogens (2) and the ...
