Pharmacogenomics in children: advantages and challenges of next generation sequencing applications [PDF]
Pharmacogenetics is considered as a prime example of how personalized medicine nowadays can be put into practice. However, genotyping to guide pharmacological treatment is relatively uncommon in the routine clinical practice. Several reasons can be found

Defining Culture Conditions for the Hidden Nitrite-Oxidizing Bacterium Nitrolancea
Nitrification is a key process for N-removal in engineered and natural environments, but recent findings of novel nitrifying microorganisms with surprising features revealed that our knowledge of this functional guild is still incomplete.
