Conquering Vocab: The Most Effective Way to Learn GRE Vocabulary in the Shortest Amount of Time

by: Novall Khan
publisher: Novall Yasmin Khan, published: 2009-06-17
ASIN: 0578028999
EAN: 9780578028996
sales rank: 542223
Conquering Vocab utilizes research in the cognitive sciences to provide the GRE-test-taker with the most efficient and effective way to learn vocabulary. This method involves reading hundreds of vocabulary words in absurd, but humorous contexts within one dozen short stories. Each short story provides brief, easy-to-understand definitions corresponding to every targeted GRE word bolded within the story. Conquering Vocab is unlike any other GRE book in that memorization, and allotting a significant amount of time to study, is simply not necessary.

HIV and Dementia: Proceedings of the NIMH-Sponsored Conference "Pathogenesis of HIV Infection of the Brain: Impact on Function and Behavior" (Current Topics in Microbiology and Immunology)

publisher: Springer, published: 1995-09-19
ASIN: 3540591176
EAN: 9783540591177
The principal objective of the book is to inform scientists and educated lay audience of now well-documented involvement of the nervous system in AIDS and the tremendous opportunities for basic neuroscience research in this evolving area. Recent evidence indicates that HIV infection results in the perturbation of the blood-brain barrier potentially facilitating the entry of HIV into the brain parenchyma and directly causing neuronal dysfunction and ultimate death. In addition, recently established models of AIDS in monkeys, cats, and mice faithfully recapitulate aspects of neuropathophysiology of HIV infection in humans thereby providing new opportunities for research in NeuroAIDS.

Lentiviral Vectors

publisher: Springer, published: 2002-02-05
ASIN: 3540421904
EAN: 9783540421900
sales rank: 3221980
For the first time a compilation of chapters that depict the biological bases underlying the development of lentiviral vectors, the techniques involved in the manufacture of this new gene delivery tool, and its most promising applications.

In vivo Models of HIV Disease and Control (Infectious Agents and Pathogenesis)

publisher: Springer, published: 2005-12-21
ASIN: 0387257403
EAN: 9780387257402
sales rank: 3143275
An AIDS vaccine is still elusive and HIV treatment continues to develop multidrug resistance at alarming rates. Because of the similarities between HIV and immune deficiency infections in a variety of animals, it is only natural that scientists use these animals as models to study pathogenesis, treatment, vaccine development and many other aspects of HIV. Part of the series Infectious Agents and Pathogenesis, this volume reviews the immune deficiency virus in a variety of hosts. Pathogenesis, vaccine and drug development, epidemiology, and the natural history of the monkey, mouse, cat, cow, horse, and other animal viruses are detailed and compared to HIV. Also included are chapters on the history and future of animal models, as well as a chapter on ethical and safety considerations in using animal models for AIDS studies.

Optogenetics, Volume 196: Tools for Controlling and Monitoring Neuronal Activity (Progress in Brain Research)

publisher: Elsevier, published: 2012-05-03
ASIN: 0444594264
EAN: 9780444594266
sales rank: 1684648

Optogenetics is a fast-growing field concerning the invention, and use, of molecules that are genetically expressed in cells, and then either report on cellular physiology in optical form, or enable control of specific pathways in cells when actuated by light. This book reviews the current state, as well as the underlying principles and future directions, of a diversity of optogenetic tools of importance for observing and controlling cellular signaling and physiology.

These tools are already revolutionizing neuroscience, and are starting to have impact on fields ranging from metabolism to development to cardiology. The book contains a dozen chapters written by world experts on these topics, half focusing on the optogenetic molecular tools themselves, and half on the genetic and hardware approaches that make them powerfully useful in intact tissues and organisms.
Leading authors review the state-of-the-art in their field of investigation and provide their views and perspectives for future research
Chapters are extensively referenced to provide readers with a comprehensive list of resources on the topics covered
All chapters include comprehensive background information and are written in a clear form that is also accessible to the non-specialist
