For their sponsorship of this important study, our sincere thanks go to the National Science Foundation. R.D. Shelton President, WTEC WTEC MISSION WTEC provides assessments of international research and development in selected technologies under awards from the National Science Foundation (NSF), the Office of Naval Research (ONR), and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Formerly part of Loyola University Maryland, WTEC is now a separate nonprofit research institute. Sponsors interested in international technology assessments or related studies can provide support through NSF or directly through separate grants or GSA task orders to WTEC. WTEC’s mission is to inform U.S. scientists, engineers, and policymakers of global trends in science and technology. WTEC assessments cover basic research, advanced development, and applications. Panels of typically six technical experts conduct WTEC assessments. Panelists are leading authorities in their field, technically active, and knowledgeable about U.S. and foreign research programs. As part of the assessment process, panels visit and carry out extensive discussions with foreign scientists and engineers in their labs. The WTEC staff helps select topics, recruits expert panelists, arranges study visits to foreign laboratories, organizes workshop presentations, and finally, edits and publishes the final reports.

Read Full License Page 2/26 Abstract Background: There is a huge controversy about whether xenograft or allograft in the “immune-privileged” brain needs immunosuppression. In animal studies, prevailing sophiscated immunosuppression or immunodeciency is detrimental for the recipients, which results in short lifespan of animals, and confounds functional behavioral readout of the graft benet, discouraging long-term follow-up. Methods: Neuron-restricted human neural progenitor cells (NPCs) were derived from human embryonic stem cells (ESCs, including H1, its gene-modied cell lines for better visualization, and HN4), propagated for different passages and then transplanted into the brain of immunocompetent rats without use of immunosuppressant.

Hutchins , Miguel A. Esteban & Baoming Qin The interplay between the Yamanaka factors (OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and c-MYC) and tran- scriptional/epigenetic co-regulators in somatic cell reprogramming is incompletely under- stood. Here, we demonstrate that the histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) demethylase JMJD3 plays conflicting roles in mouse reprogramming. On one side, JMJD3 induces the pro-senescence factor Ink4a and degrades the pluripotency regulator PHF20 in a reprogramming factor-independent manner. On the other side, JMJD3 is specifically recruited by KLF4 to reduce H3K27me3 at both enhancers and promoters of epithelial and pluripotency genes.

  • Calendar 2017–2018 the Emblem of the University Is the Mythical Chinese Bird Feng (鳳) Which Has Been Regarded As the Bird of the South Since the Han Dynasty
    The Chinese University of Hong Kong Calendar 2017–2018 The emblem of the University is the mythical Chinese bird feng (鳳) which has been regarded as the Bird of the South since the Han dynasty. It is a symbol of nobility, beauty, loyalty and majesty. The University colours are purple and gold, representing devotion and loyalty, and perseverance and resolution, respectively. The motto of the University is ‘博文約禮’ or ‘Through learning and temperance to virtue’. These words of Confucius have long been considered a principal precept of his teaching. It is recorded in the Analects of Confucius that the Master says, ‘The superior man, extensively studying all learning, and keeping himself under the restraint of the rules of propriety, may thus likewise not overstep what is right.’ (Legge’s version of the Four Books) In choosing ‘博文約禮’ as its motto, the University is laying equal emphasis on the intellectual and moral aspects of education.
