Mammals and mammal-like robots
2018Mammals are warm-blooded tetrapod vertebrates that evolved from reptilian ancestors during the late Triassic period around 225 million years ago. This chapter focuses on some of the most distinctive mammalian characteristics and on integrated robotic systems that seek to capture these capabilities in biomimetic artifacts.

Mammalian synthetic biology represents a vibrant and growing technical discipline. As this nascent field matures, technologies for engineering sophisticated mammalian cell functions are enabling the development of novel therapies that address unmet medical needs. These transformative capabilities are likely to impact clinical practice in ways that have

The Quarterly Review of Biology, 1960
Melanocytes may be regarded as unicellular, pigment-secreting glands, largely though not entirely confined to the epidermis, of which they are a constant though often un-recognized cellular component. Their numerical incidence, and their branching form, with numerous dichotomizing processes, are such as to form a reticular system within the epidermis ...

Genetica, 1959
Eighteen new cases of colour mosaics are described. Previous reports of mosaics are collocated and briefly discussed. Various mechanisms are described which may engender three types of mosaicism. These are the (1) somatic, (2) the soma-gonadic and (3) the gonadic.

The Bulletin of Mathematical Biophysics, 1948
By considering the general energy balance between the energy of muscular contraction in the extremities, kinetic energy imparted to the animal and the energy lost in the lifting of the center of gravity and in the possible muscular viscosity, an expression is derived for the speed of an animal in terms of the constant which determine its shape and ...

Philosophical Psychology, 2006
Many traditional attempts to show that nonhuman animals are deserving of moral consideration have taken the form of an argument by analogy. However, arguments of this kind have had notable weaknesses and, in particular, have not been able to convince two kinds of skeptics.

Of the approximately 4,200 species of mammals inhabiting the earth, few are singularly adapted for existence in wetland environments. Yet wetland habitats provide important resources for many mammals that occupy broad ecological niches but are typically associated with other habitat types.

Mammals of Assam and the Mammal-Geography of India
1974The northeastern parts of India, comprising Assam, are of exceptional biogeographical interest. It is from this region that the obliteration of the Pre-Tertiary Tethys Sea began, producing in its wake a land connection between the Indian Peninsula and the main Asiatic mass to its north (see Chapters II, III & XX).
