Studies evaluating the potency of experimental cell and gene therapies in clinically relevant animal models of disease and describing important advances in cell/gene-based product manufacturing and validation are welcomed. Results of clinical studies evaluating the safety and efficacy of cell and gene therapies in early and late phase trials are also of interest. In addition to Short Reports and Full-Length Articles, the journal also accepts Editorials addressing emerging trends and potential controversies in the field, and Review articles summarizing bodies of work that have made lasting impacts in the field.

  • Annual Report 20120198 WHAT IS PMI?
    PMIPMI日本支部 Japan Chapter アニュアルレポートAnnual Report 20120198 WHAT IS PMI? Project management is said to be derived from the U.S. Department of Defense’s efforts to systematize the management methods for purpose of administering large-scale projects including those in national defense and aerospace. These systematized management methods were further developed and expanded to manufacturing, construction, engineering, and chemical industries. In 1969, a series of discussions among three men at The Three Threes Restaurant, which used to be a small, intimate gathering place just a few blocks from City Hall in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, lead to a formation of the Project Management Institute (PMI) as a professional organization with a membership base, comprised of project management practitioners. PMI celebrated the 50th anniversary of its foundation in 2019. PMI published its first standard, called “A Guide to the Project Management Body Of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide),” in 1987. Revisions are completed every four years with the collaboration of devoted and committed volunteers. The latest sixth edition was published in September of 2017. As of today, the project management standard, issued by PMI, has been put in practice as the global standard for project management in various fields all over the world. PMI JAPAN CHAPTER PMI’s representative chapter in Japan was first established in 1998 as the PMI Tokyo Chapter and was later renamed to the PMI Japan Chapter in 2009. The chapter operates with a number of stakeholders for the purposes of promoting and advancing the knowledge of project management. In 2018, the chapter had celebrated its 20th anniversary of formation.

  • Bf 109E-3 GERMAN WWII FIGHTER 1/48 SCALE PLASTIC KIT
    Bf 109E-3 GERMAN WWII FIGHTER 1/48 SCALE PLASTIC KIT ProfiPACK #8262 INTRO No other aircraft of the German Luftwaffe is so intimately connected with its rise and fall in the course of the Second World War than the Messerschmitt Bf 109. This type, by whose evolution outlived the era in which it was conceptualized, bore the brunt of Luftwaffe duties from the opening battles of Nazi Germany through to her final downfall. The history of the aircraft begins during 1934-35, when the Reich Ministry of Aviation formulated a requirement for the development of a single-engined monoplane fighter. Proposals were submitted by Arado, Heinkel, Focke-Wulf and Bayerische Flugzeugwerke. The last mentioned firm featured a technical director named Professor Willy Messerschmitt, who was riding a wave of popularity based on the success of his recent liason aircraft, the Bf 108. His goal was to conceive of an aircraft with the best possible performance for the specified weight, size, and aerodynamic qualities. Over the subsequent months, several prototypes were built that served first and foremost in development flights and further modifications. The aircraft was relatively small, and compared to the prevailing trends of the time, docile with revolutionary features such as low wing design, the use of a retractable landing gear, a wing with a very narrow profile, wing slats, landing flaps, weapons firing through the prop hub, and so on. Even the enclosed cockpit and the method of construction were not very common just four years prior to the beginning of the Second World War. At its conception, the Bf 109 was a very promising asset despite some powerplant troubles.

  • Abstracts of General Contribution, the 35Th Annual Meeting of the Japan Society of Human Genetics
    15 Abstracts of General Contribution, the 35th Annual Meeting of the Japan Society of Human Genetics AI FAMILY OF MAN Y.R.AHUJA Dept. Genetics, Osmania University, Hyderabad-500 007, India There are various hypotheses regarding the origin of man but the mystery has not been resolved yet. Perhaps man originated in Central Asia. When man's family size increased, its members migrated in different directions. Mutations, natural selection and genetic drift played their roles in bringing about differentiation. Hunter and gatherer gradually became an organised and mechanized man. As man's family continued to increase, conflicts arose. Some of the conflicts turned into wars. The climax came when atomic bombs were dropped at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Devastation was unparalleled. But there was a lesson to learn: If discretion was not used, human specis could become extinct. After all, man belongs only to one family. Why destroy it! A4 The relationship between the Xmn I site polymorphism 5' to the Gy-globin gene and its gene expression in a Japanese population with or without elevated Hb F. K, SHIMIZU, H. KEINO, S. HA}IIHARA (Inst. Dev.Res., Aichi Pref. Colony, Kasugai) and Y. ENOKI (2nd Dept. Physiol., Nara Med. Univ., Kashihara) It is well known that the Gy/A7 ratio of the newborn is about 7/3, while that of the adult, around 2/3. Its abnormal ratio depends on the 7- globin gene number and the abnormality of its promoter or enhancer sequence. It has been said that the C~T substitution at -158 bp to the 67-globin gene cap site, which produces the presence of the Xmn I site, accompanies the elevation of the GT-globin chain synthesis.
