Overcoming Early Career Barriers to Interdisciplinary Climate Change Research
None are likely better suited to interdisciplinary research than those early in their scientific careers, and the next generation of scientists whom they are today teaching, advising, and mentoring.
Evolution of Post-Transcriptional Gene Regulation
“DNA makes RNA makes protein”? After transcription, mRNAs undergo a series of ‘post‐transcriptional’ regulatory processes to be finally translated into functional proteins. Changes in these regulatory processes are important driving forces underlying the evolution of phenotypic differences across different species.
The Risks of using Waterbodies to Heat and Cool Infrastructure
Waterbodies such as oceans, lakes, rivers and aquifers represent large reserves of thermal energy, which can be used to heat or cool nearby buildings and infrastructure.
