Beat Cancer
If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with cancer, you want to do everything possible to beat the disease. But with so much conflicting advice and so many options available, how do you decide on the best treatment plan for you? In this major new book, Professor Jane Plant and Professor Mustafa Djamgoz present a clear and scientifically sound 10-step programme to help you beat cancer. At a time when you may be feeling helpless and confused, this book provides the essential guidance you need to take control of your life and regain your health with targeted advice for specific cancers. Included in the 10-step plan: · Inform yourself: understand what cancer is, what causes it and how to avoid carcinogens · Choosing the right treatment: evidence-based advice on conventional and complementary therapies, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery and medication · Change your lifestyle: guidance on diet, exercise, reducing stress, relationships and other lifestyle factors that have a proven link with cancer Beat Cancer will help you prevent cancer, tackle your diagnosis and stay in remission.
The Visual System of Fish
A question often asked of those of us who work in the seemingly esoteric field of fish vision is, why? To some of us the answer seems obvious - how many other visual scientists get to dive in a tropical lagoon in the name of science and then are able to eat their subjects for dinner? However, there are better, or at least scientifically more acceptable, reasons for working on the visual system of fish. First, in terms of numbers, fish are by far the most important of all vertebrate classes, probably accounting for over half (c. 22 000 species) of all recognized vertebrate species (Nelson, 1984). Furthermore, many of these are of commercial importance. Secondly, if one of the research aims is...
Studies of Ionic Mechanisms Associated with Human Cancers
The general aim of this thesis was to undertake a series of inter-related studies with a view to improving our understanding of the role of ion channel expression and its regulation in cancer cells with strong metastatic potential. The emphasis was on neonatal Nav1.5 (nNav1.5) subtype of voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC). Chapter 1 (General Introduction) gives an account of the relevant literature and states the main aims of the studies. Chapter 2 details the Materials and Methods, ranging from quantitative molecular biology to in vitro assays of metastatic cell behaviour. Chapter 3 presents experiments on regulation of VGSCs by insulin and insulin-like growth factor1 (IGF1) in strongly me...
Basic and Clinical Perspectives in Vision Research
I have been asked to write a brief foreword to this volume honoring Hisako Ikeda, providing a review of the accomplishments in our field over the past four decades, when Hisako was an active participant. This I am delighted to do. It has been a most exciting time in vision research and Hisako has been right in the middle of much of the excitement, publishing on a wide variety of topics and providing much new data and many new insights. Hisako's research career can be divided by decades into four quite distinct areas of inquiry. In the 1950s, as a student in Japan, her research interests were psychophysical in nature, and she was concerned with visual illusions, figural aftereffects, and motion detec tion. In the 1960s, after her move to London, she began electrophysiological studies. Much of her work in the 1960s was concerned with the electroretinogram (ERG), its components, and the use of this electrical response for evaluating spectral sensitivities of the eye and retinal degenerations. This work represented the beginning of her electrodiagnostic clinical work, which continued until her retirement.
Summary of Sally Adee's We Are Electric
Get the Summary of Sally Adee's We Are Electric in 20 minutes. Please note: This is a summary & not the original book. "We Are Electric" by Sally Adee delves into the historical and scientific exploration of bioelectricity. The book traces the debate between Luigi Galvani, who posited the existence of "animal electricity," and Alessandro Volta, who argued for a metallic source of electrical contractions in frog legs. Despite Galvani's initial discrediting, his theories laid the groundwork for future research into biological electricity...
