UNCOVERING GENOMIC INSIGHTS TO THE DYNAMICS AND MECHANISMS OF SPECIATION USING LIALIS BURTONIS AND HETERONOTIA BINOEI
(2019-05-08)
Species are fundamental entities in biology because their existence represents the cohesion that binds populations into a single unit. One facet of evolutionary biology is to identify the processes that cause the origin ...
Rattlesnake genomics illustrate patterns of speciation, adaptation, and links between genome structure and function
(2019-08-13)
Understanding the origins of species and biological novelties that allow them to thrive in diverse environments is a key goal in evolutionary biology, and new genomic methods are constantly enabling research using non-model ...
Using snake genomes to illuminate the patterns and mechanisms of rapid adaptation
(2018-08-01)
One of the most important and interesting goals in evolutionary biology is to understand the mechanisms generating biodiversity and adaptive novelty. Ever-evolving genomic techniques have served as a catalyst for this work, ...
FUNCTIONAL GENOMICS REVEALS THE MECHANISMS AND EVOLUTION OF EXTREME PHYSIOLOGICAL ADAPTATIONS IN SNAKES
(2021-04-28)
Previous studies examining post-feeding organ regeneration in the Burmese python (Python molurusbivittatus) have identified thousands of genes that are significantly differentially regulated during this process. However, ...
Using improvisational theater to teach genetics concepts
(Lippincott, 2007-09)
**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: For 40 years, nursing leaders have called for more genetics content in the undergraduate nursing curriculum, but incorporating the essentials of the growing body ...
Can Heterogeneity of Chronic Sickle Cell Disease Pain Be Explained by Genomics? A Literature Review
(Sage, 2009-07)
This literature review explores the potential of genomics to explain, or at least contribute to the discussion about, heterogeneity in chronic pain in sickle-cell disease (SCD). Background: Adults with SCD, a single-gene ...
Nurses Collaborating with Cross Disciplinary Networks: Starting to Integrate Genomics into Practice
(National Black Nurses Association, Inc., 2010-07)
Nurses and other health-care providers are poised to include
genetic discoveries into practice settings and to translate such
knowledge for consumer benefit within culturally appropriate
contexts. Nurses must seek ...
Genomics and Pain Research in Sickle Cell Disease: An Explanation of Heterogeneity?
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2011)
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a chronic illness, and the major complication, pain, results in complex multidimensional problems
that affect an individual’s ability to maintain adequate quality of life in multiple areas. ...
