Completing the Candida Loop
2100 Imagine identical twin sisters, one short, dark-haired, and zaftig; the other tall, blond, and willowy. You’re not likely to run across this pair, since identical twins possess matching genomes and thus, when raised under the same conditions, look alike. But some organisms, like the fungus Candida albicans, can assume dramatically different, heritable forms even though they share identical...
متن کاملCompleting the Loop: IS Program Improvement through Outcomes Assessment
Why are assessment results often not used to effect IS program improvement? Although both AACSB and ABET place great emphasis on the establishment of a systematic process for the collection and evaluation of academic program assessment data, moving assessment from a data collection activity to a mechanism for program improvement has proven to be a challenge for many programs. The ultimate goal ...
متن کاملClosed-loop Acceleration Feedback
Historically, sensor noise has been a key factor in the analysis of system performance for formation flying spacecraft. Since most interesting formation missions require coordination between multiple spacecraft, knowledge of the relative states must be as accurate as possible. This knowledge is typically used to design a trajectory to meet specific criteria, such as minimizing fuel use or maint...
متن کاملFeedback on a feedback loop: the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis.
Recent evidence indicates that transthyretin (TTR), the major transport protein for thyroxine [1] and retinol binding protein [2], plays important roles in amyloidβ (Aβ) metabolism. Transthyretin has been demonstrated to bind Aβ in vitro [3,4] and in vivo [5,6], colocalize in Aβ plaques and within neurons containing intracellular Aβ [7], and recent evidence suggests it might act as a transport ...
متن کاملOscillations by the p53-Mdm2 feedback loop.
The p53 network is perhaps the most important pathway involved in preventing the initiation of cancer, p53 levels and activity are upregulated in response to various stresses including DNA damage, hypoxia, and oncogene activation. Active p53 initiates different transcriptional programs that result in cell cycle arrest, cellular senescence or apoptosis. p53 also activates the transcription of Md...
