    Comments on August 1, 2018 Planning Commission agenda items, received July 26-30 Items 1a/b, South Nashville Community Plan Amendment/Fairgrounds Mixed-Use District -----Original Message----- From: John Bernatavitz [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, July 30, 2018 10:30 AM To: Planning Commissioners Subject: Major League Soccer is what Nashville needs; so please support the proposed stadium! Dear Members of the Planning Commission, The 2018 World Cup said it all. What a great event! Nashville could also potentially share in the sport the binds the world together. I support the proposed Major League Soccer Stadium and renovation to the Fairgrounds Nashville. Professional sports teams in Nashville have turned into major brands that are recognized across their various leagues. The Predators not only hosted the NHL All Star weekend not long ago but are widely hailed as having the best home ice advantage in hockey. The Titans, on the heels of their incredible new uniform update ceremony, were selected to host next year's NFL draft at Ascend Amphitheater. Professional sports always have, and always will greatly benefit not only the neighborhoods where they play, but the city as a whole. I would ask that you seize this opportunity to make history with us and vote to approve this soccer stadium as well as the accompanying fairgrounds renovations. I recently went on a trip to Belize, and in the small village of Hopkins, Belize, I and my wife had the privilege of experiencing the World Cup final between Croatia and France with many people throughout the world in this village.

    ea sac Genome editing: scientific opportunities, public interests and policy options in the European Union EASAC policy report 31 March 2017 ISBN: 978-3-8047-3727-3 This report can be found at www.easac.eu Science Advice for the Benefit of Europe EASAC EASAC – the European Academies' Science Advisory Council – is formed by the national science academies of the EU Member States to enable them to collaborate with each other in giving advice to European policy-makers. It thus provides a means for the collective voice of European science to be heard. EASAC was founded in 2001 at the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. Its mission reflects the view of academies that science is central to many aspects of modern life and that an appreciation of the scientific dimension is a pre-requisite to wise policy-making. This view already underpins the work of many academies at national level. With the growing importance of the European Union as an arena for policy, academies recognise that the scope of their advisory functions needs to extend beyond the national to cover also the European level. Here it is often the case that a trans-European grouping can be more effective than a body from a single country. The academies of Europe have therefore formed EASAC so that they can speak with a common voice with the goal of building science into policy at EU level. Through EASAC, the academies work together to provide independent, expert, evidence-based advice about the scientific aspects of public policy to those who make or influence policy within the European institutions.

This dynamic filament system is involved in many processes in the cytoplasm and the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. This thesis studies profilin, a regulator of actin filament dynam- ics which functions during incorporation of new actin molecules at growing filament ends at the cell periphery. Profilin is also present in the nucleus but its function is less well understood in this compartment. Here I present results concerning profilin and the activity of the transcription factor SRF, which is known to control the expression of actin and many actin-binding proteins in a process requiring the MRTF-A co-factor. MRTF-A binds monomeric actin and is released upon receptor mediated actin polymerization. Depletion of the two profilin isoforms I and IIa reduced MRTF-A/SRF-dependent transcription, most likely since the lack of profilin enable more MRTF-A to bind actin monomers and thereby prevent SRF-transcription. Interestingly profilin de- pletion also seemed to affect general transcription in the two cell lines investigated.

  • Scale up of Platelet Production from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells for Developing Targeted Therapies: Advances and Challenges
    CELL & GENE THERAPY INSIGHTS STRATEGIES FOR SCALE-UP & SCALE-OUT EXPERT INSIGHT Scale up of platelet production from human pluripotent stem cells for developing targeted therapies: advances and challenges Jonathan N Thon & Sven M Karlsson Without question, the future of regenerative medicine is in the scalable production of transfusable human tissues for therapeutic use. Platelets will be among the first of these stem-cell based therapeutic tissues to be developed and adopted for clinical use, most notably because they are anucleate and can be safely irradiated to substantially reduce the risk of teratoma development and other cell contaminants. Furthermore, plate- lets are short-lived, well characterized, easily transplanted, are not re- quired to be autologous, and support a larger than $20 billion per year global market that relies entirely on human volunteer donors. While we are within a decade of realizing the potential of stem cell-based therapeu- tics, this was not obvious only several years ago. This article identifies the major logistical challenges associated with commercially scaling platelet production for therapeutic use and our experiential insights into translat- ing this technology to the clinic.
