How do we convert the problem of the crisis into an opportunity?'" he said of determining what the 2017 challenge theme would be. .
Endemic blackfoot disease (BFD) in southern Taiwan and the switch from well water to a tap-water system provides a unique opportunity for determining the consequences of chronic As exposure and subsequent cessation of As ingestion.
Localization of bacteria in gametes and larvae of corals presents an opportunity for determining when bacterial-coral associations are initiated and whether they are dynamic throughout early development.
To address these aspects, the monitoring record for North Stradbroke Island provides a relevant opportunity for determining the structural development of native vegetation among reconstructed ecosystems.
These isolated land masses, far from continental source areas, offer opportunities for determining origins of immigrants and their evolutionary history after establishment.
Recent development of animal models for assessing declines in integrative assessments of motor and cognitive function with primary aging, as well as syndromes of aging such as frailty, provide previously unavailable experimental opportunities for determining the efficacy of therapies on functional outcomes [ 40, 41, 43- 46].
The recently completed genome sequencing for 53 species of the ancient fungal clade Ascomycota provides a unique opportunity to determine patterns of gene gain and gene loss, as well as mechanisms of gene family evolution (Dujon 2010).
With mutations in over 90% of these genes, there is an opportunity to determine the role of these proteins in the context of complex endocrine and other signaling networks.
Each morning, blood glucose, blood ketone, and urine ketone levels were measured irrespective of the level of the blood glucose, providing the opportunity to determine the frequency of ketosis assessed by a standardized protocol.
The recent publication of a revised Y chromosome haplogroup tree comprised of >600 binary markers (Karafet et al. 2008) and the availability of dozens of Y-STRs provides the opportunity to determine the origin(s) of Cohanim lineages with greater phylogenetic and geographic resolution than previously possible (Kayser et al. 2004; Lim et al. 2007; Redd et al. 2002).
