Mind the GAP, for Tolerance to Gut Bacteria

“Mind the Gap” in Reporting the Outdated Statistics

Mind the gut

Animals thrive in environments where food resources are abundant. While this correlation between population growth and food abundance is well established, much less is known about the influence of diet quality on physiological and developmental programs that support animal reproduction. Here we discuss dietary impact on fertility, and highlight a recent report on the activity of a nuclear recep...

From inhibitor to drug: mind the gap!

There was a time when academics were reluctant to work on anything that could be commercialized. Applied research had its place, but not in the university laboratory. One reason for the unwillingness to follow up on basic research was a widespread conviction that it is less of an intellectual challenge to turn a promising discovery into a new therapeutic than, say, defining a signal transductio...

Mind the (Intelligibility) Gap

Intelligibility, evolution and emulation are some of the key notions for digital information preservation. In this paper we define formally these notions on the basis of modules and inter-module dependencies. Subsequently, we discuss how we can handle the evolution of modules and dependencies. This work can be exploited for building advanced preservation information systems and registries.

Mind the Gap!

In 1835, the French naturalist Felix Dujardin started crushing ciliates under the microscope and observed that the tiny cells exuded a jellylike, water-insoluble substance, which he described as a ‘‘gelée vivante’’ and which was eventually christened ‘‘protoplasm’’ by the physician Johann E. Purkinje and the botanist Hugo von Mohl. Fifty years after Dujardin’s observations, the possibility that...
