The mathematical models in this book are concerned with a variety of approaches to the manner in which the clinical radiologic treatment of human neoplasms can be improved.
The articles of these proceedings arise from a NSF-CBMS regional conference on the mathematical modeling of the hearing process, that was held at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in the summer of 1980.
Federal programs applicable to the oceans and coastal zone have evolved incrementally in response to perceived needs to expedite emerging mari- time development while conserving valuable marine resources.
Whilst most of the senses (hearing, sight, smell and taste) have their own organs, the tactile sense is dependent on the sensory nerve endings of the periph- eral processes of the nerve cells in the spinal ganglia.
A synopsis of the use of lasers in gynecology is presentedin this book; it is supported by more than 10 years ofexperience and backed up by studies inthe fields ofexperimental surgery, technical medicine and clinicalgynecology.
This volume presents systematic treatments for the families and genera of the Malpighiales, which more recently have been recognised as a new major group of the eudicots.
This volume brings together authors working on a wide range of topics to provide an up to date account of the underlying mechanisms and functions of neurogenesis and synaptogenesis in the adult brain.
As food safety concerns become increasingly prevalent, understanding the physiological implications of foodborne pathogens, contaminants, and additives is essential for safeguarding public health.
This volume highlights the remarkable new developments in brain imaging, including those that apply magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET), that allow us to non invasively study the living human brain in health and in disease.
This book is an edited volume, the goal of which is to provide an overview of the current state-of-the-art in statistical methods applied to problems in structural bioinformatics (and in particular protein structure prediction, simulation, experimental structure determination and analysis).
In this volume there is a strong emphasis on translational science, with preclinical approaches suggesting new directions for development of new treatments.
This volume discusses the current state of research findings related to healthy brain aging by integrating human clinical studies and translational research in animal models.
The diversity, ecological role and biotechnological applications of marine fungi have been addressed in numerous scientific publications in the last few years.
The classical mechanistic idea of nature that prevailed in science during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries was an essentially mindless conception: the physically described aspects of nature were asserted to be completely determined by prior physically described aspects alone, with our conscious experiences entering only passively.
This book offers the most up-to-date information about research surrounding the neurobiology of bipolar disorder as well as currently available and novel therapeutic options.
Cultural neuroscience combines brain imaging techniques such as functional magnetic resonance imaging and event-related brain potentials with methods of social and cultural psychology to investigate whether and how cultures influence the neural mechanisms of perception, attention, emotion, social cognition, and other human cognitive processes.
The latest in Springer's "e;Medical English"e; series, aimed at health care professionals who need English for their work but do not speak English on a day-to-day basis.
