Solving a Cartesian Conundrum
LIn a recent issue of this journal, Robert Oakes has proposed a “Cartesian conundrum,” arguing that certain elements in Descartes’ philosophical theology are incompatible.^ I believe that this conundrum can be solved. It does, however, lead to an interesting question about what constitutes the “materiality” of a material object. In this article I propose to solve the conun drum, and to say a l...
متن کاملRe-solving the cadherin-catenin-actin conundrum.
Cell-cell adhesion plays critical roles in establishing and maintaining tissue architecture and function (1,2). In these roles, cell-cell adhesion must be adaptable and, depending on the biological circumstance, weak, dynamic or strong. Different adhesion structures (adherens junctions, tight junctions, desmosomes) regulate cell-cell adhesion, and each comprises distinct membranebound adhesion ...
متن کاملElectronic cigarettes in mental health settings - solving a conundrum?†
Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes), have recently been the focus of much attention and debate. This article attempts to highlight their relevance and potential importance for mental health settings, with a focus on in-patient units. To do so, the complexities involved in smoking among people with mental disorder, the debate surrounding e-cigarettes, and their potential to be utilised as a smo...
متن کاملChanging the Genospace: Solving GA Problems with Cartesian Genetic Programming
Embedded Cartesian Genetic Programming (ECGP) is an extension of Cartesian Genetic Programming (CGP) capable of acquiring, evolving and re-using partial solutions. In this paper, we apply for the first time CGP and ECGP to the ones-max and order-3 deceptive problems, which are normally associated with Genetic Algorithms. Our approach uses CGP and ECGP to evolve a sequence of commands for a tape...
متن کاملDNA A-tract bending in three dimensions: solving the dA4T4 vs. dT4A4 conundrum.
DNA A-tracts have been defined as four or more consecutive A.T base pairs without a TpA step. When inserted in phase with the DNA helical repeat, bending is manifested macroscopically as anomalous migration on polyacrylamide gels, first observed >20 years ago. An unsolved conundrum is why DNA containing in-phase A-tract repeats of A(4)T(4) are bent, whereas T(4)A(4) is straight. We have determi...
