Goliath moves into healthcare records

Genomics moves into the clinic.

Semantically Inspired Electronic Healthcare Records

The adoption of Electronic Healthcare Records (EHRs) holds the key for the success of next generation intelligent healthcare systems to improve the quality of healthcare and patient safety by facilitating the exchange of critical patient’s episodic information among different stakeholders. The primary and secondary care healthcare systems store the episodic information for future reuse and for ...

Laetrile: the battle moves into the courtroom.

NDP kinase moves into developing primary cilia.

Inmunofluorescence staining of murine NIH3T3 fibroblasts grown at high density shows that conventional nucleoside diphosphate (NDP) kinases A and B localize to a sensory organelle, the primary cilium. Similar results are obtained with Xenopus A6 kidney epithelial cells, suggesting that NDP kinases are a universal component of the primary cilium. The translocation of NDP kinase into primary cili...

Plant genomics moves into the limelight.

Two major considerations impelled Ronald Phillips [University of Minnesota and Director of the National Research Initiative of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)], and Michael Freeling (University of California, Berkeley), to organize a recent colloquium, ‘‘Protecting our Food Supply: The Value of Plant Genome Initiatives’’ (Stanford, CA, June 2–5). First, the increased wealth of the dev...
