Some of these reforms have been catastrophic for the quality of service that patients experience at ward level.

Though ranked third it is lagging behind, in herbs-based medicines, and holds less than 2% (US$ 62 billion),of market share , whereas China with just 10% scientific base holds nearly one-third of the internatio...

Discovering hidden features in a representation without being fixated to a single perspective of viewing it is one of the crucial acts in creative activities. The process of designing through conceptual sketches is no exception; designers should be able to discover in an unexpected way visual/spatial features of sketched elements which were not intended when the elements were being sketched.

Ion transporters are fundamental to life. Due to their ancient origin and conservation in sequence, ion transporters are also particularly well suited for comparative genomics of distantly related species. Here, we perform genome-wide ion transporter profiling as a basis for comparative genomics of eukaryotes. From a given predicted proteome, we identify all bona fide ion channels, ion porters,...
