The story of the unorthodox and inspiring life and career of a pioneering biologist Scientist Rosemary Grant's journey in life has involved detours and sidestepsnot the shortest or the straightest of paths, but one that has led her to the top of evolutionary biology.
This book investigates the pivotal role of microorganisms in elemental cycling and degradation processes, offering a comprehensive exploration of their chemical reactivity and metabolic diversity.
Bioethics: 50 Puzzles, Problems, and Thought Experiments collects 50 cases-both real and imaginary-that have been, or should be, of special interest and importance to philosophical bioethics.
Huntington's disease (HD) is one of the most common dominantly inherited neurodegenerative disorders, characterized by a clinical trial of movement disorder, cognitive deficits, and psychiatric symptoms.
This innovative and thought-provoking book integrates both new, authored material and reprints of existing literature that, together, provide a compelling narrative that reveals the fatally flawed science associated with genetic reductionist accounts of human behavior and development.
Die CONTOC-Studie hat in ökumenischer und internationaler Ausrichtung die digitale kirchliche Praxis unter den Bedingungen der Corona-Pandemie im Frühsommer 2020 erforscht.
Data sharing - broadly defined as the exchange of health-related data among multiple controllers and processors - has gained increased relevance in the health sciences over recent years as the need and demand for collaboration has increased.

This monograph summarizes several decades of collaborations between ecologists and mathematicians, presenting novel applications in biological modeling.
This book addresses complex problems associated with crop improvement programs, using a wide range of programming solutions, for genomics data handling and sustainable agriculture.
This book provides a detailed evaluation of the hydro-ecological characteristics of the Western Balkans, an area characterized by still preserved inland waters and fish resources important for the European continent, as well as the biodiversity of inland waters important for the planet Earth.
This book gives a general overview on current research focusing on geoenvironmental issues and challenges in hydrogeosciences in the Middle East and Mediterranean region and surrounding areas.
Theory and early empirical work posed that herbivore pressure should be lower on islands than on the mainland owing to lower herbivore abundance and diversity in insular systems.

The global human population will reach nine billion by 2050, and seafood is projected to be the primary food source to sustain such a large population.

Cold-water corals form reef structures in continental margin and seamount settings world-wide, making them more wide-spread and abundant than shallow-water reefs.
The evolution of genome's modification by genetic engineering was characterized by a major technological breakthrough with the discovery of CRISPR in 2012.
This textbook examines the fundamental principles of microbial metabolism and how a microbe's ecology is intrinsically interwoven with and a consequence of its metabolism.
