there are three main ideas about relation between creatures and god. one of them is the theory of separation, according to this theory there's not any homogeneity between creatures and god it means the essence and existence of creatures are completely inhomogeneity with god's essence and existence. the second is the theory of oneness, according to this theory creatures and god are uni...

mythical categories. Thus, Alfredo Bonanno discusses the rise of political Islam as a kind ofmapping of the situated categories of oppressor and oppressed onto the ethno-religious categories of

It is an honor to become a part of the talented group of cell biologists who have received this award before me. While running a research group certainly has its ups and downs, I love being a faculty member and am continuously excited by the prospect of scientific discoveries yet to be made. I have benefited from the support of many people over the years and hope to be able to do the same for o...

This study was designed to explore the role that red-winged blackbirds (Agelaius phoeniceus) may have played in disseminating West Nile virus (WNV) across the United States. Using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays designed to detect WNV antibodies in avian species we were able to determine the WNV antibody prevalence in a cohort of red-winged blackbirds in central North Dakota in 2003 and 2004...

ToxR is a bitopic membrane protein that controls virulence gene expression in Vibrio cholerae. Its cytoplasmic domain is homologous to the winged helix-turn-helix ('winged helix') DNA-binding/transcription activation domain found in a variety of prokaryotic and eukaryotic regulators, whereas its periplasmic domain is of ill-defined function. Several genes in V. cholerae are regulated by ToxR, b...

In Artificial Life, the production of new artificial creatures always needs more and more computation power. Whereas artificial morphogenesis methods construct complete creatures using blocks, artificial embryogeny develops smaller creatures starting from a unique cell. To obtain a complete creature, organized in tissues and organs, we propose a developmental model in which cells are coded as t...
