Mice are the premier model organisms to study human biology and disease, but there is still debate about the extent to which molecular mechanisms are conserved between human and mouse. With the advance of next-generation ...
This doctoral thesis aims to find a connection between two different disciplines. On the one hand, the electromagnetic theory, one of the most known and most applied theories in physics, properly described by the famous ...
Behind every good advertisement there is a creative concept, a Big Idea. In contrast to the countless number of ads, a small number of patterns of effective communication (idea templates) have been uncovered, which are ...
Our current knowledge about the function of human genes is mostly based on data from genetic studies using animal models. However, divergence among species may hamper the understanding of genetic mechanisms underlying ...
