Tribbles at the cross-roads…

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2015
Interest in the biology of tribbles (TRIB) pseudokinase family has been growing steadily since their first description in Drosophila as a regulator of cell division and migration during embryonic development. It is now clear that TRIB proteins play important roles in controlling a number of distinct physiological systems, including insulin-mediated ...

Oestrid myiasis at a cross-road

Acta Tropica, 2021
The oestrids are a genuinely unique group of Diptera that represent many species whose larvae parasitize mammals, feeding on live tissues of a wide range of hosts, from mice to elephants, causing obligatory myiases. Those have had greatest impact on the activities of humans and their use of animals (e.g., as food, recreation, in the conduct of wars ...

THE DELAY TO PEDESTRIANS CROSSING A ROAD

Biometrika, 1951
independent. We assume, in other words, that vehicles arrive 'at random'. The assumption of randomness is not usually true in practice, but Adams (1936) has shown that the approximation is quite good under a fairly wide range of conditions. Pedestrians arrive at X at a rate n per unit time, also at random, and independently of the passage of vehicles ...
