Microsatellites---contiguous arrays of 2 6 base-pair motifs---have formed the cornerstone of population-genetic studies for over two decades.
A cornerstone of population health is the estimation of disease occurrence – both in terms of incidence (people who newly develop a disease) and prevalence (the total number of people living with a disease).
Specifically, the ICPD made advancing gender equality, eliminating violence against women, ensuring women's ability to control their own fertility, and universal access to sexual and reproductive health (SRH) information and services cornerstones of population and development policies [ 1].
ICPD declared that advancing gender, empowering women and eliminating all kinds of violence against women, and ensuring women's ability to control their own fertility are cornerstones of population and development related programs [ 11].
Self-management of risk behaviors is a cornerstone of future population health interventions.
In the rapidly specializing health care arena, the training of competent generalists remains a cornerstone of optimal population-level health as measured by a variety of outcomes in many countries [ 1].
As the prevalence of low birth weight (<2500 g) is as high as 16%% in Tanzania [ 19], prevention of intrauterine growth retardation and preterm births must form one cornerstone in the population level management strategy for infant stunting.
Since the global prevalence of T2DM is expected to increase beyond previous estimates, best practices for promoting these self-management cornerstones at a population level are urgently needed.
In both cases, the goal should be to make sure the sea retains plenty of "BOFFs," an acronym used by marine conservationist Carl Safina and Jane Lubchenco, the former administrator of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, to describe the "big old fat females" that are huge egg producers and the cornerstone of healthy marine species populations.
These findings have been echoed with models developed in contexts other than biological control (Berec et al. 2001; Drake and Lodge 2006) and now form a cornerstone of theory regarding small populations.
