Genomics and the Prevention and Control of Common Chronic Diseases: Emerging Priorities for Public Health Action

open access: yesPreventing Chronic Disease, 2005
The completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003 continues to raise expectations on near-term applications of human genome discoveries in personalized disease prevention, especially in the area of common chronic diseases (1,2). In fact, almost daily we

Comparative Aspects of Osteosarcoma Pathogenesis in Humans and Dogs

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences, 2015
Osteosarcoma (OS) is a primary and aggressive bone sarcoma affecting the skeleton of two principal species, human beings and canines. The biologic behavior of OS is conserved between people and dogs, and evidence suggests that fundamental discoveries in ...

Human Epilepsy Gene Discovery

open access: yes
Abstract The application of genome-wide technologies has accelerated the discovery of genetic and genomic etiologies for the epilepsies. Gene discovery has been most successful in the developmental and epileptic encephalopathies, and genetic testing is now routinely implemented in the clinical setting.

Human Discovery and Machine Learning

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cognitive Informatics and Natural Intelligence, 2008
This article studies machine learning paradigms from the point of view of human cognition. Indeed, conceptions in both machine learning and human learning evolved from a passive to an active conception of learning. Our objective is to provide an interaction protocol suited to both humans and machines to enable assisting human discoveries by learning ...

Next-generation Astronomy

open access: yes, 2010
Fundamental changes are taking place in the way we do astronomy. In twenty years time, it is likely that most astronomers will never go near a cutting-edge telescope, which will be much more efficiently operated in service mode.
