The Various Shapes of Innovation

Forum of Clinical Oncology, 2015
Background: Innovation is one of the most difficult words to define, especially when it comes to health technology. The aim of this article is to get a better understanding of the multi-dimensional facet of innovation, how this is valued by different ...

How to recover from a bad start: size at metamorphosis affects growth and survival in a tropical amphibian

BMC Ecology, 2020
Background In species with complex life cycles, size at metamorphosis is a key life-history trait which reflects the complex interactions between costs and benefits of life in the aquatic and terrestrial environments.

The Characteristic of Critical Genes in Neuroendocrine System and Their Regulation on Food Habit Transition and Metamorphosis of Veined Rapa Whelk Rapana venosa (Valenciennes, 1846)

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Metamorphosis is a critical developmental event in mollusks, and neuroendocrine system plays an essential role in this process. Rapana venosa is an economically important shellfish in China, but the artificial technology of R.

Increased insulin/insulin growth factor signaling advances the onset of metamorphosis in Drosophila. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
Mechanisms by which attainment of specific body sizes trigger developmental transitions to adulthood (e.g. puberty or metamorphosis) are incompletely understood.

Geometric Metamorphosis [PDF]

, 2011
Standard image registration methods do not account for changes in image appearance. Hence, metamorphosis approaches have been developed which jointly estimate a space deformation and a change in image appearance to construct a spatio-temporal trajectory smoothly transforming a source to a target image.

Indoles induce metamorphosis in a broad diversity of jellyfish, but not in a crown jelly (Coronatae). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Many animals go through one or more metamorphoses during their lives, however, the molecular underpinnings of metamorphosis across diverse species are not well understood.

A Review on the Biology, Ecology, and Management Tactics of Helicoverpa armigera (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

Turkish Journal of Agriculture: Food Science and Technology, 2022
In the agronomical field, different internal and external factors are responsible for substantially diminished crop harvest. A hindrance that can be listed in those factors is insect pests.

Experimental Control and Characterization of Autophagy in Drosophila [PDF]

, 2008
Insects such as the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, which fundamentally reorganize their body plan during metamorphosis, make extensive use of autophagy for their normal development and physiology.

Les métamorphoses de l’inimitié

Ateliers d'Anthropologie, 2022
The Ashéninka report stories of meetings with peyari, a fortuitous event viewed as contact with the dead’s universe of sociability, which is liable to plunge the witness into a state of pathological stupefaction.

The role of retinoic acid signaling in starfish metamorphosis

EvoDevo, 2018
Background Although retinoic acid (RA) signaling plays a crucial role in the body patterning of chordates, its function in non-chordate invertebrates, other than its mediation of environmental cues triggering metamorphosis in cnidarians, is largely ...
