Cancer and the arts: Johannes Brahms and the problem of pancreatic carcinoma

Correspondence to Dr Wolfgang Wagner; [email protected] ‘Pancreatic cancer kills patients—and it still exhausts their doctors’, an oncologists told me once. ‘Pancreatic cancer is associated with a very poor prognosis, highlighted by the close parallel between disease incidence and mortality. Five-year survival in patients with pancreatic cancer remains as low as 6% in the USA’, Terumi Kami...

Lay Abstract Identify causal biological mechanisms of PTSD using a novel gene x environment mouse model of stress vulnerability, and characterize the interaction between PTSD-like symptoms and nicotine/alcohol consumption Identify SNPs associated with PTSD, or PTSD and comorbid substance use disorders, informed by our mouse model. Examine the genetics and epidemiology of substance abuse among m...

Brahms Overview

A brief review of BRAHMS measurements of bulk particle production in RHIC Au+Au collisions at √ sNN = 200GeV is presented, together with some discussion of baryon number transport. Intermediate pT measurements in different collision systems (Au+Au, d+Au and p+p) are also discussed in the context of jet quenching and saturation of the gluon density in Au ions at RHIC energies. This report also i...

Recent results from BRAHMS

The BRAHMS collaboration ended its data collection program in 2006. We are now well advanced in the analysis of a comprehensive set of data that spans systems ranging in mass from p+p to Au+Au and in energy from √ sNN = 62.4 to 200 GeV. Our analysis has taken two distinct paths: we explore the rapidity dependence of intermediate and high-transverse-momentum, identified-particle production, thus...
