This book looks at the New Urban Agenda and prospects of its implementation. In 2016, the New Urban Agenda was endorsed by the General Assembly of the United Nations after having been adopted by the United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development (Habitat III) in Quito, Ecuador. Together with the Sustainable Development Goals, it provides a comprehensive and ambitious roadmap for global debate and action related to sustainable urbanisation during the coming decades. As mature economies and ageing societies, Japan and Germany can make considerable contributions to the implementation of the New Urban Agenda. Both countries share a number of similar challenges for environ...
This book provides readers with the most up-to-date practical information on breast cancer screening. Since breast cancers are highly heterogeneous, time to clinical onset from the initial carcinogenesis differs diversely between cancers. Pathological germline variants and driver mutations cause a high lifetime risk of breast cancer. The lifetime risks are various according to what genes are pathologically dysfunctional. Integrated omics and imaging technologies have established varying tumour characteristics. Thus, this book suggests that a more individualised scheme is required to improve breast cancer screening. A key aim is to demonstrate how multiple diagnostic imaging modalities such a...

This book provides a much needed overview of the agrourbanism topic in the context of territorial studies. It carefully looks at rural, urban, periurban farming in both professional and unprofessional capacities as one of the main sustainable forms of land use and management. This cutting edge text explores the various forms of agricultural and urban planning, as well as the main innovations that the agro-urban approach entails in terms of governance, spatial dimensions and functions. Agrourbanism provides a breadth of information and serves as a practical study of concerns facing policy and decision makers, planners and landscape managers, as well as farmers, managers of protected areas, local authorities and local action groups. As such this book is suitable as a course accompaniment to provide an overview of the complexity of agro-urban issues.
Treats a subdiscipline of cell biology that seeks not only to understand the structure, function, and behavior of differentiated animal cells, but also how they can be enlisted into industrial and medical purposes through such activities as clonally expanding cells with useful abilities, optimizing their culturing at industrial scale, modulating their ability to produce pharmaceutical proteins and monoclonal antibodies, and finding applications in gene therapy and organ culture. Some 100 papers examine such topics as cell culture for cell therapy, modeling and controlling cultures, process analysis, glycosilation-based biotechnology, hydrodynamics and mass-transfer, information and animal cells, human tissue resources, apoptosis, tissue engineering, cultures free of serum and protein, cell physiology for enhancing productivity, bioreactors and high-density culture, cell culture engineering, engineering for artificial organs, and the expression of recombinant animal genes.
