Highlights of ASH ® is Coming to China and Uruguay

The immunomodulatory drug lenalidomide can induce striking hematologic and cytogenetic responses in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), especially among patients whose clonal cells bear a somatic deletion of the long arm of chromosome 5q (del(5q)). Unfortunately, most patients whose cytopenias and burden of clonal cells improve during lenalidomide therapy will relapse within three ye...

Highlights for Agave Productivity

Agaves can grow in marginal arid and semiarid lands where their special ecological and physiological adaptations to environmental conditions give them the potential to produce substantial biomass. Agave americana was the first agave species shown to be a Crassulacean Acid Metabolism plant, with CO2 uptake occurring primarily at night and with high wateruse efficiency (photosynthesis/transpirati...

Highlights for Success

Many scientists are far more comfortable performing scientific experiments than they are reporting their findings. Although they could benefit from the excellent books available on scientific writing, they may not have time to read these comprehensive articles. As a result, considerable data either are not reported or are published in ways that inadequately express their significance. This arti...

Patch Volumes: Multiple Fusion Volumes for Consistent RGB-D Modeling

Recent advances have allowed for the creation of dense, accurate 3D maps of indoor environments using RGB-D cameras. Some techniques are able to create large-scale maps, while others focus on accurate details using GPU-accelerated volumetric representations. In this work we describe patch volumes, a novel multiple-volume representation which enables the creation of globally consistent maps of i...
