Pathways, Potholes, and the Persistence of Women in Science Reconsidering the Pipeline


Free Download Enobong Hannah Branch, "Pathways, Potholes, and the Persistence of Women in Science: Reconsidering the Pipeline"
English | ISBN: 149851636X | 2016 | 278 pages | EPUB | 3 MB
Training for and pursuing a career in science can be treacherous for women; many more begin than ultimately complete at every stage. Characterizing this as a pipeline problem, however, leads to a focus on individual women instead of structural conditions. The goal of the book is to offer an alternative model that better articulates the ideas of agency, constraint, and variability along the path to scientific careers for women. The chapters in this volume apply the metaphor of the road to a variety of fields and moments that are characterized as exits, pathways, and potholes.

Role of Signaling Pathways in Brain Tumorigenesis


Free Download Role of Signaling Pathways in Brain Tumorigenesis
English | 2023 | ISBN: 9811584729 | 378 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 21 MB
This book provides acomprehensive overview of cell signalling pathways and morphogens in the genesis of brain tumours. It also explains the role of brain tumour stem cells in the brain tumour progression. It also elucidates the novel early biomarkers that can be utilized to diagnose brain tumours. It presents the basic developmental pathways and morphogens, including retinoic acid and TGF-b that promote brain tumorigenesis. The chapters illustrate the role of stem cells and stem cells mediated cell signalling pathways including, Sonic hedgehog, Notch, Wnt in the brain tumour growth. The chapters also emphasize the role of transcription factors, mainlyNanog, Sox, BMI1, HIF1 and Pax6 in the brain tumouriogensis. It highlights the role of NF-kb, Myc and neurotrophins in the brain tumour development. Finally, the book summarizes the potential early therapeutic targets and targeted drug discovery for brain tumours.
