Make more knowledge even in less time every day. You may not always spend your time and money to go abroad and get the experience and knowledge by yourself. Reading is a good alternative to do in getting this desirable knowledge and experience. You may gain many things from experiencing directly, but of course it will spend much money. So here, by reading sir thomas browne, you can take more ad...

The cause of the Association for Mental Welfare, no less than the scientific aspect of psychiatry, has suffered a great loss by the death of Sir Frederick Mott. This is no place to deal in detail with the purely scientific side of his activities, but some knowledge of their general tendency is required in order to assess the great influence that he exercised on our conceptions of the treatment ...

We present a sector-based resource allocation scheme for broadband fixed wireless networks. For SIR requirements of about 12 to 14 dB, the scheme can deliver an effective reuse factor of one, while permitting a given spectrum to be re-used in every sector of every cell. The scheme also offers flexible sector planning, easy capacity growth, and addresses irregular cell layout and non-uniform tra...

This valediction to the late Sir Harold Ridley commemorates the 50th year of his first publication in the St Thomas’s Hospital Report, describing his pioneer undertaking to research, design, and implant an intraocular lens to correct aphakia. Dissatisfied with the poor acuity and loss of binocular single vision following unilateral cataract extraction and the poor outcome, particularly in child...

IT is written in the Bible that wve should take time "to praise famous men and our fathers that begat us." This year-the centenary year of the Ulster Medical Society-seemed an appropriate point of time for such remembrance and reflection. I chose, therefore, the name of one, William Whitla, a past President and benefactor of our Society, as the subject of my address. On 11th December, 1933, Sir...

How alternative chromatin-based regulatory states can be made stable and heritable in order to provide robust epigenetic memory is poorly understood. Here, we develop a stochastic model of the silencing system in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that incorporates cooperative binding of the repressive SIR complex and antisilencing histone modifications, in addition to positive feedback in Sir2 recruitme...

Patients on maintenance dialysis have increased risk for cancer, especially in the kidney and urinary tract. In a retrospective cohort of 831,804 patients starting dialysis during 1980 to 1994 in the United States, Europe, or Australia and New Zealand, standardized incidence ratios (SIR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated for kidney and bladder cancers. Risks for cancers of the ...

Proton cyclotron waves (PCWs) upstream from Mars are generated by ion–ion instabilities due to the interaction between solar wind and pickup protons that originate extended hydrogen (H) exosphere of Mars, indicating a loss H interplanetary space. Their occurrences properties associated with nominal conditions have been widely studied, but relatively little is known about PCW activity under extr...
