A TIMES ENVIRONMENT AND SCIENCE BOOK OF THE YEAR 2022'The ideal guide to what is not just a fiendishly complex area of science but also an ethical minefield' Mail on SundayA new gene editing technology, invented just seven years ago, has turned humanity into gods.
'A big-picture forecast of how medicine stands on the threshold of a revolution that will radically change all of our lives' The TimesWelcome to a revolution in the science of you.
"e;An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure"e; In medicine the truth of this statement is so self-evident that it is simply taken for granted; and yet it has become mere lip-service for many a doctor, since his work is almost exclusively concerned with the treatment of those who are already ill.
The most important investigation of genetic science since The Selfish Gene, from the author of the critically acclaimed and best-selling The Red Queen and The Origins of Virtue.
'Beautiful to read and packed with cutting-edge science' Observer'Poetic, mind-stretching and, through it all, deeply human' Daniel LevitinMental illness is one of the greatest causes of human suffering, its nature and origin a long-held mystery.
Recognizing the potential design complexities and ethical issues associated with clinical trials for gene therapies, the Forum on Regenerative Medicine of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a 1-day workshop in Washington, DC, on November 13, 2019.
Directed Evolution Library Creation: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition presents user-friendly protocols for both proven strategies and cutting-edge approaches for the creation of mutant gene libraries for directed evolution.
Recent stem cell research has revealed that miRNA and RNAi-mediated gene regulation is one of the vital determinates controlling the state of cell differentiation, with the small RNAs serving as key elements involved in regulatory network control of pluripotent cell fate determination.
Microarray Technology, Volumes 1 and 2, present information in designing and fabricating arrays and binding studies with biological analytes while providing the reader with a broad description of microarray technology tools and their potential applications.
The existence of genes for RNA molecules not coding for proteins (ncRNAs) has been recognized since the 1950's, but until recently, aside from the critically important ribosomal and transfer RNA genes, most focus has been on protein coding genes.
Microchip-Based Assay Systems explores recent progress in the microelectronics arena, the resultant miniaturization of component device features to nanometer size particles, and the ensuing growth in the development and use of microchip-based techniques in leading laboratories around the world.
