Linear chromosomes represent an evolutionary innovation associated with the origin of eukaryotic cells. This book describes how linear chromosomes and primordial pathways for maintaining their terminal structures, telomeres, emerged in early eukaryotes.Telomeres, derived from the Greek meaning terminal part, were first described by Hermann Muller i
Tells why to engage in scientific education of talented students as early as possible to develop the critical minds or scientific method judgments. This book discusses the multitudes of initiatives all around the world; stating that most of them work in isolation, often struggling with lack of resources and stay unrecognized to the general public."

This text examines the relationship between DNA damage and repair, cellular senescence, genomic instability, and aging. The authors provide in-depth discussions of various types of DNA damage, the DNA repair network, and cellular responses to genetic damage to assess their impact on the modulation of aging processes and age-related diseases, including cancer development. Chromosomal Instability and Aging describes cloning genes for human chromosomal instability disorders, the causal factors and consequences of chromosomal injury, the telomere hypothesis of aging, and age-dependant mitochondrial genetic instability. It includes more than 2200 references to facilitate further research, making it an informative and timely guide.

Nanosensors and nanorobots are not science fiction but part of nanomedicine, the newest direction in medicine. After touring medical history and defining molecular nanotechnology as the atomic-level control of molecular structures to create precisely targeted medical procedures, Freitas (Institute for Molecular Manufacturing, Palo Alto, CA) details such topics as molecular transport and device applications but leaves ethical debates to others. Appends data on nanodevice design, and human blood and cell types; and a 36-page glossary. Part of a three-volume work, due to be available online.
