This book includes papers presented at ESCAPE-10, the 10th European Symposium on Computer Aided Process -Engineering, held in Florence, Italy, 7-10th May, 2000. The scientific program reflected two complementary strategic objectives of the 'Computer Aided Process Engineering' (CAPE) Working Party: one checked the status of historically consolidated topics by means of their industrial application and their emerging issues, while the other was addressed to opening new windows to the CAPE audience by inviting adjacent Working Parties to co-operate in the creation of the technical program.The former CAPE strategic objective was covered by the topics: Numerical Methods, Process Design and Synthes...
This book chronicles the process of creating a documentary that shares the story of Derek Free and other patients with Diamond Blackfan Anemia. DBA is considered an "orphan disease," one that affects so few people that it is not profitable to pharmaceutical companies, and therefore does not justify research. Until recently, not enough people had the disease to justify governmental aid. A transformation towards hope reveals a disease that is defying odds and treading new ground for the possibility of a cure. The small documentary interviews Pulitzer-prize winning journalist Beth Whitehouse (author of The Match: "Savior Siblings" and One Families Battle to Heal Their Daughter, the story of the Trebing family), Congresswoman Carolyn McCarthy, Dr. David Bodine from the National Institutes of Health, Drs. Jeffrey Lipton and Adrianna Vlachos from Cohen Children's Hospital, the Diamond Blackfan Anemia Foundation's founder, Dawn Baumgardner, and Marie Arturi, founder of the Daniella Maria Arturi Foundation.
Cell therapy is a rapidly developing area, drawing on cell biology, molecular biology, virology, immunology, cell quantitation techniques and biomedical engineering. It has potential in many clinical settings, in the treatment of cancer and other diseases. This volume in the series Cancer: Clinical Science in Practice examines the current state and future prospects of cell therapy, which seems likely to have an even more profound impact on health care than did the production of proteins by recombinant DNA technology. The coverage is broad, including the scientific principles of haematopoietic cell therapy, the technology of cell collection and preparation, current and likely future clinical applications of cell therapy, and the principles and practice of cellular immunotherapy. Up-to-date and authoritative, volumes in this series are intended for a wide audience of clinicians and researchers with an interest in the applications of biomedical science to the understanding and management of cancer.

Image analysis is a computational feat which humans show excellence in, in comp- ison with computers. Yet the list of applications that rely on automatic processing of images has been growing at a fast pace. Biometric authentication by face, ?ngerprint, and iris, online character recognition in cell phones as well as drug design tools are but a few of its benefactors appearing on the headlines. This is, of course, facilitated by the valuable output of the resarch community in the past 30 years. The pattern recognition and computer vision communities that study image analysis have large conferences, which regularly draw 1000 parti- pants. In a way this is not surprising, because much of the h...
