Verification of systems biology research in the age of collaborative competition [PDF]
BMC Proceedings, 2012 Modern society demands greater scrutiny of the potential health risks and benefits of long-term, and sometimes lifelong, exposure to drugs, chemicals, and substances found in consumer products and the environment. Organizations such as companies and academic consortia conduct large multi-year scientific studies that entail the collection and analysis ...

The Current Biology Photomicrography Competition [PDF]
Current Biology, 2000 This image of a rat retina is the winning entry in this year’s Current Biology Photomicrography Competition. It was produced by Werner Zuschratter at the Leibniz Institute for Neurobiology in Magdeburg, Germany.The retrogradely traced ganglion cells — cell bodies, dendrites and axons — are coloured in yellow.

Cancer Cell Biology: Myc Wins the Competition [PDF]
Current Biology, 2004 During Drosophila development, cells with elevated levels of the Myc oncoprotein grow faster than, and induce cell death in, nearby wild-type cells, suggesting how inappropriate Myc over-expression provides cells with a competitive advantage that can lead to cancer.

An Effective Sign Switching Dark Energy: Lotka–Volterra Model of Two Interacting Fluids [PDF]
Universe, 2023 One of the recent attempts to address the Hubble and S8 tensions is to consider that the Universe started out not as a de Sitter-like spacetime, but rather anti-de Sitter-like. That is, the Universe underwent an “AdS-to-dS” transition at some point.

Promoting microbiology education through the iGEM synthetic biology competition [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2015 Synthetic biology has developed rapidly in the 21st century. It covers a range of scientific disciplines that incorporate principles from engineering to take advantage of and improve biological systems, often applied to specific problems. Methods important in this subject area include the systematic design and testing of biological systems and, here ...

Single Cell Biology: Exploring Somatic Cell Behaviors, Competition and Selection in Chronic Disease [PDF]
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022 The full range of cell functions is under-determined in most human diseases. The evidence that somatic cell competition and clonal imbalance play a role in non-neoplastic chronic disease reveal a need for a dedicated effort to explore single cell ...
