One of the most important views in the recent discussion of epistemological scepticism is NeoMooreanism.

Microtubule Destabilizing Kinesins: A Historical Perspective and Thoughts for the Future
ABSTRACT The microtubule cytoskeleton plays critical roles in multiple cellular processes such as mitotic spindle assembly and chromosome segregation. Cells contain a number of microtubule‐associated proteins that regulate microtubule dynamics both temporally and spatially in cells. The microtubule depolymerizing kinesins include members of the Kinesin‐
