Psychological factors that influence performance in youth advanced climbers
Introduction: Rock climbing performance in lead can be measured in two ways: on-sight and red-point. On-sight climbing demands greater physiological and psychological factors. There are five main recurring themes that keep climbers highly motivated: risk

T Cells Can Induce Somatic Mutation in B Cell Receptor-Engaged BL2 Burkitt’s Lymphoma Cells Independently of CD40-CD40 Ligand Interactions [PDF]
Abstract The B cell surface trigger(s) and the molecular mechanism(s) of somatic hypermutation remain unknown, partly because of the lack of amendable in vitro models. Recently, however, we reported that upon B cell receptor cross-linking and coculture with activated T cells, the Burkitt’s lymphoma cell line BL2 introduces mutations in ...
