Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Molecular epidemiology is the study of the distribution and determinants of disease in human populations using techniques of molecular biology and epidemiology. Molecular epidemiology has found many domains of application, in particular cancer epidemiology, environmental epidemiology and inf…ectious disease epidemiology. During the last two decades, molecular epidemiology has become an important discipline in cancer research. The early contributions of molecular epidemiology came from the application of markers of exposure, such as measurements of adducts in blood and urine, in population-based studies. The investigation of aflatoxin exposure markers in cohorts at high risk of liver cancer remains a paradigm of the potential of the new approaches. Over the years, molecular cancer epidemiology has evolved towards the development, validation and application of markers of susceptibility and, more recently, markers of mechanisms of cancer development. This IARC Scientific Publication originates from the workshop 'Mechanistic Considerations in the Molecular Epidemiology of Cancer' jointly organised by IARC and the University of Vermont and held in Lyon, France, in November 2001. The workshop was devoted to providing guidelines for use of molecular techniques in cancer epidemiology, in particular with respect to the study of cancer mechanisms. Molecular cancer epidemiology is often defined in terms of biomarkers, which are found internally within biological systems as indicators of exposure, effects, or susceptibility is no longer necessary. For example, DNA adducts are markers that integrate exposure, effect and susceptibility. The new IARC Scientific Publication covers from an interdisciplinary perspective the contribution of molecular epidemiology to the understanding of mechanisms of carcinogenesis, and represents a further contribution to the development of molecular epidemiology as a mature scientific discipline. The new IARC Scientific Publication comes from an interdisciplinary perspective. It looks at the contribution of molecular epidemiology to the understanding of mechanisms of carcinogenesis, and represents a further contribution to the development of molecular epidemiology as a mature scientific discipline.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Many are no larger than a fingertip. They are engraved with symbols, magic spells and images of gods, animals and emperors. These stones were used for various purposes. The earliest ones served as seals for making impressions in sof…t materials. Later engraved gems were worn or carried as personal ornaments - usually rings, but sometimes talismans or amulets. The exquisite engraved designs were thought to imbue the gems with special powers. For example, the gods and rituals depicted on cylinder seals from Mesopotamia were thought to protect property and to lend force to agreements marked with the seals.This edited volume discusses some of the finest and most exceptional precious and semi-precious stones from the collection of the Dutch National Museum of Antiquities - more than 5.800 engraved gems from the ancient Near East, Egypt, the classical world, renaissance and 17th-20th centuries - and other special collections throughout Europe.

Buch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Many are no larger than a fingertip. They are engraved with symbols, magic spells and images of gods, animals and emperors. These stones were used for various purposes. The earliest ones served as seals for making impressions in soft materials.… Later engraved gems were worn or carried as personal ornaments - usually rings, but sometimes talismans or amulets. The exquisite engraved designs were thought to imbue the gems with special powers. For example, the gods and rituals depicted on cylinder seals from Mesopotamia were thought to protect property and to lend force to agreements marked with the seals.This edited volume discusses some of the finest and most exceptional precious and semi-precious stones from the collection of the Dutch National Museum of Antiquities - more than 5.800 engraved gems from the ancient Near East, Egypt, the classical world, renaissance and 17th-20th centuries - and other special collections throughout Europe. Meet the people behind engraved gems: gem engravers, the people that used the gems, the people that re-used them and above all the gem collectors. This is the first major publication on engraved gems in the collection of the National Museum of Antiquities in Leiden since 1978.ContentsTable of contents:PrefaceWim Weijland, director Rijksmuseum van OudhedenIntroductionBen van den Bercken (assistant curator Engraved Gems, Rijksmuseum van Oudheden, Leiden)1.
