In 1973 Pelletier and Feingold' described a boy seen at the Boston Floating Hospital with short stature, delayed speech development, and a striking facial appearance. A f...

In this thesis we address the problem of drift-free navigation for underwater vehicles performing harbor surveillance and ship hull inspection. Maintaining accurate localization for the duration of a mission is important for a variety of tasks, such as planning the vehicle trajectory and ensuring coverage of the area to be inspected. Our approach uses only onboard sensors in a simultaneous loca...

process of gastrulation in a whole series of different ways — for example, as a sequence of drawings taken from the classic work on the subject by Nieuwkoop and Faber, which have been 'morphed' together into a movie. There is also a movie showing the external movements of gastrulation recorded using a conventional light microscope, and also a movie showing the internal movements of gastrulation...

The autologous and allogeneic immunological humoral response of breast cancer patients to breast tumours was investigated by ELISA assay of both the serum and the supernatants of transformed lymphocytes from the patients and controls. No specificity or increased titre relative to the controls was observed in serum antibody. However, when the response was dissected by the use of clones of transf...
