Guide to Biomolecular Simulations
Molecular dynamics simulations have become instrumental in replacing our view of proteins as relatively rigid structures with the realization that they were dynamic systems, whose internal motions play a functional role. Over the years, such simulations have become a central part of biophysics. Applications of molecular dynamics in biophysics range over many areas. They are used in the structure determination of macromolecules with x-ray and NMR data, the modelling of unknown structures from their sequence, the study of enzyme mechanisms, the estimation of ligand-binding free energies, the evaluation of the role of conformational change in protein function, and drug design for targets of known structures.
Gruppi : Una introduzione a idee e metodi della Teoria dei Gruppi = Groups : An introduction to the ideas and methods of Group Theory
Born from the university courses of Group Theory held by the author for several years, this book deals with the fundamental arguments of the theory: abelian, nilpotent and solvable groups, free groups, permutations, representations and cohomology. After the first notions, Hölder's program for the classification of finite groups is exposed. A long chapter is dedicated to the action of a group on a set and to the permutations, both under the algebraic and combinatorial aspects, with references to the theory of equations. Some questions of a logical nature are also considered, such as the decidability of the word problem for certain classes of groups. An essential aspect of the book is the presence of a great variety of exercises, about 400, mostly solved.

Gradients in a Tropical Mountain Ecosystem of Ecuador
This volume addresses a multitude of ecologically relevant aspects: macro- and microclimate; physics, chemistry and biology of soils; water relations, matter turnover and nutrient availability; plant growth and biomass partitioning; floral composition and plant life forms; vegetation structure and dynamics; organismic interactions, diversity and population biology of birds, moths and microarthropods; forest management, and reforestation with indigenous species; ethnobotanical and social aspects. New hypotheses are presented with regard to biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, as well as sustainable management of an ecosystem in a biodiversity hotspot.
GPCRs as Therapeutic Targets ; 2-Vol. Set
Delivers an authoritative and in-depth compendium of a vibrant and active area of academic and industrial drug discovery. The book serves as an important reference for new and experienced researchers studying G protein-coupled receptors and discusses the molecular pharmacology of this important target class. It also includes up-to-date material on GPCR structures and structure-based drug design.
Governing the Sustainable Development Goals : Quantification in Global Public Policy
This book conceptualises the Sustainable Development Goals as epistemic infrastructures that connect numbers, networks and governing paradigms.The book approaches quantification not merely as a tool for governing, but rather as a broader epistemic system through which global public policy is produced. This book focuses on the role of international organisations in shaping and implementing the 2030 Agenda and demonstrates how the SDGs have transformed and accelerated trends in quantification.
Governing the Pandemic : The politics of navigating a Mega-Crisis
This book offers unique insights into how governments and governing systems, particularly in advanced economies, have responded to the immense challenges of managing the coronavirus pandemic and the ensuing disease COVID-19.
Goodman and Gilman's the pharmacological basis of therapeutics ; 14th ed.
A collaboration between two friends and professors at Yale, Louis Goodman and Alfred Gilman. Over the years, “G&G” has been acclaimed as the “blue bible” of pharmacology. Surely much of that acclaim reflects the book’s purpose, delineated by the original authors and steadily adhered to over 81 years: to correlate pharmacology with related medical sciences, to reinterpret the actions and uses of drugs in light of advances in medicine and the basic biomedical sciences, to emphasize the application of pharmacodynamics to therapeutics, and to create a book that would be useful to students of pharmacology and to healthcare practitioners.
Goodman & Gilman's the pharmacological basis of therapeutics ; 13th ed.
Correlates pharmacology with related medical sciences, to reinterpret the actions and uses of drugs in light of advances in medicine and the basic biomedical sciences, to emphasize the applications of pharmacodynamics to therapeutics, and to create a book that would be useful to students of pharmacology and to physicians.
Good Research Practice in Non-Clinical Pharmacology and Biomedicine
This book, published under a CC BY 4.0 license in the Pubmed indexed book series Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology, provides up-to-date information on best practice to improve experimental design and quality of research in non-clinical pharmacology and biomedicine.
Good pharmacovigilance practice (GVP) : Focus on risk mangement plan (RMP)
Pharmacovigilance which is the science and activities relating to the detection, assessment, understanding and prevention of adverse drug reactions or any other possible drug related problems and Risk Management Strategies which provides a structured and coherent approach to identifying, assessing and managing risk and builds in a process for regularly updating and reviewing the assessment based on new developments or actions taken, conference provides the foundation for strong strategic planning and practical decision-making in pharmacovigilance programs. Stakeholders from medicines research, global regulation, and healthcare will join together to analyse the challenges for safety and pharmacovigilance efforts in this uncertain environment and examine effective strategies for addressing gaps and needs.
GN Company for face masks and hand sanitizers production
If there is any product that has been in high demand in Pharmacies and Supermarkets since the advent of the corona virus, then it must be face mask and sanitizers. The fact that wearing of face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic received varying recommendations from different public health agencies and governments means that the product is bound to sell well. In essence, starting a face mask and sanitizers production company is a business you should consider as an aspiring entrepreneur. This business that is still open for investors to come and compete for the available market. From here we got the idea to start up this business GN company for Masks and Hand Sanitizers.
Glutamate Receptors in Peripheral Tissue : Excitatory Transmission Outside the CNS
The book is divided into three sections— Part I is on general concepts and concentrates on the distribution and cell-specific localiza tion of glutamate receptors, their transporters, and the pharmacology in peripheral tissues and organs. Part II emphasizes the presence and implications of these receptors in specific target tissues, organs, and systems, including liver, lungs, endocrine tissues, bone, immune system, etc. Part III focuses on glutamate receptors in plants to illustrate their presence beyond the animal kingdom.
Globalization and Urban Development
Most research on globalization has focused on macroeconomic and economy-wide consequences. This book explores an under-researched area, the impacts of globalization on cities and national urban hierarchies, especially but not solely in developing countries. Most of the globalization-urban research has concentrated on the "global cities" (e.g. New York, London, Paris, Tokyo) that influence what happens in the rest of the world. In contrast, this research looks at the cities at the receiving end of the forces of globalization. The general finding is that large cities, on balance, benefit from globalization, although in some cases at the expense of widening spatial inequities.
Global regulations of medicinal, pharmaceutical, and food products
Medicine regulation demands the application of sound medical, scientific, and technical knowledge and skills, and operates within a legal framework. Regulatory functions involve interactions with various stakeholders (e.g., manufacturers, traders, consumers, health professionals, researchers, and governments) whose economic, social, and political motives may differ, making implementation of regulation both politically and technically challenging. This book discusses regulatory landscape globally and the current global regulatory scenario of medicinal products and food products comprehensively.
Global Political Demography : The Politics of Population Change
This book draws the big picture of how population change interplays with politics across the world from 1990 to 2040.
