This volume contains the papers presented at the symposion on Central Neurone Environment and the Control Systems of Breathing and Circulation held at Bochum, October 5-7,1981 in honour of Prof.
For several decades botanists have been impressed by the discovery that the distribution of secondary plant substances follows the general lines of plant relationships.
The most prominent function of the central nervous system is the control of motor functions by rapidly transmitted impulses through efferent cranial and spinal peripheral nerves.
There is no doubt that a major problem of present day research workers, especially in the life sciences, is the plethora of publications of all kinds, abstracts, short communications, full papers in journals of varying quality, reviews and proceedings of symposia with, in addition, an unprecedented duplication of publications.
In keeping with the spirit of an Advanced Series in the Agricultural Sciences, we have attempted to address herein most of the current research areas being used to characterize, describe and manage salt-affected soils.
The development of a crop, and therefore its health, is always the result of interplay between biological and environmental factors, as influenced by human agency.
This volume on the clinical anatomy of the neurocranium, the orbit and the craniocervical junction is intended to provide a precise and detailed account for the use of neurosurgeons, otorhinolaryngologists, neuroradiologists and roentgenologists.
When, in 1966, the Gennan Research Society directed the attention of oceanographers in the Federal Republic of Ger- many to problems of marine pollution, I was not enthusiastic.
Sensorimotor systems are not rigidly wired predetermined networks but rather highly plastic structures that learn and modify their entire performance in response to changes in external or internal conditions.
"e;Anatomy is the mother of physiology"e; - this statement was used to characterize the evolution of physiology from anato- my as an independent science in the late nineteenth century.
The text of this book is derived from courses taught by the author in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Statistics at the State University of New York at Stony Brook.
Schlaganfälle töten jährlich mehr als 275000 Amerikaner und invalidisieren weitere 300 000; sie stellen somit eine der Hauptur sachen für Tod und Langzeitinvalidität dar.
The study of the genetic regulation of immune response to natural multidetermi- nant immunogens was undertaken by the method of bidirectional selective breed- ing of High or Low antibody responder lines of mice.
The International Biological Programme (IBP) was a cooperative effort on the part of scientists throughout the world, whose goal was an integrated study of the basic processes of biological productivity.
The scanning electron microscope (SEM) has been used with increasing frequency in recent years to study the surface mor- phology of normal, transformed and malignant leukocytes.
Mit der Elektroencephalographie und der Elektromyographie hat die Neurophysiologie zwei wichtige Beiträge zur klinischen Routinearbeit geleistet, die aus der Funktions diagnostik einerseits des Gehirns, andererseits des peripheren Nervensystems nicht mehr wegzudenken sind.
In the spring of 1969 a small meeting was convened at the CSIRO Riverina Laboratory, Deniliquin, New South Wales, to discuss the biology of the genus Atriplex, a group of plants considered by those who attended to be of profound importance both in relation to range management in the region and as a tool in physiological research.
