Celebrating the fortieth anniversary of the publication of Tinbergen's classic article 'On aims and methods of ethology', in this book an international cast of leading behavioural biologists reflect on the enduring significance of his groundbreaking proposals.
Investigations into the field of immunology are rapidly expanding with the use of genetically altered mice at the embryonic stage. This breakthrough laboratory guide provides a complete study of transgenesis and targeted mutagenesis in laboratory mice that will be valued by researchers looking for fresh observations and interpretations when designing future experiments. Special Features Include:Contributions of two Nobel Prize winnersAddresses the use of mouse models in studying the immune systemTargets gene distribution in embryonic stem cells and their introduction into blastocyte mice modelsAnalyzes the in vivo functional loss of embryonic cellsA practical, useful guidebook for individual researchers, laboratories, and libraries
Vols. for 1963- include as pt. 2 of the Jan. issue: Medical subject headings.
This book encompasses the proceedings of a conference held at Trinity College, Oxford on September 21-25, 1985 organized by a committee comprised of Drs. M. Crumpton, M. Feldmann, A. McMichael, and E. Simpson, and advised by many friends and colleagues. The immune response gene workshops that took place were based on the need to understand why certain experimental animal strains were high responders and others were low responders. It was assumed that identification of the immune response (Ir) genes and definition of their products would explain high and low responder status. Research in the ensuing years has identified the Ir gene products involved in antibody responses as the la antigens, o...

Discover the roots of international transracial adoption International Korean Adoption: A Fifty-Year History of Policy and Practice explores the long history of international transracial adoption. Scholars present the expert multidisciplinary perspectives and up-to-date research on this most significant and longstanding form of international child welfare practice. Viewpoints and research are discussed from the academic disciplines of psychology, ethnic studies, sociology, social work, and anthropology. The chapters examine sociohistorical background, the forming of new families, reflections on Korean adoption, birth country perspectives, global perspectives, implications for practice, and a...
