The environment in which biology exists has dramatically changed during the last decades. Life was formed during billions of years, exposed to, and shaped by the original physical forces such as gravitation, cosmic irradiation and the terrestrial magnetism. The existing organisms are created to function in harmony with these forces. However, in the late 19th century mankind introduced the use of e

Heterogeneity among NPY (and PYY) receptors was first proposed on the basis of studies on sympathetic neuroeffector junctions, where NPY (and PYY) can exert three types of action: 1) a direct (e.g., vasoconstrictor) response; 2) a postjunctional potentiating effect on NE-evoked vasoconstriction; and 3) a prejunctional suppression of stimulated NE release; the two latter phenomena are probably reci

Biological diversity faces a global crisis with increasing extinction rates and the loss of variety within species and across ecosystems. Increasingly, large companies are committing to address their impacts on biodiversity, but research shows that corporate reporting remains inconsistent, shallow, and difficult to compare. While biodiversity-related disclosures have largely been driven by various

When writing computer software one is often forced to balance the need for high run-time performance with high programmer productivity. By using a high-level language it is often possible to cut development times, but this typically comes at the cost of reduced run-time performance. Using a lower-level language, programs can be made very efficient but at the cost of increased development time. Re

One way to increase the production rate is by increasing the level of prefabrication and industrial building. If the industry had become better at learning from past mistakes, it would have given a greater opportunity to streamline processes, m
