Dynamic Cognitive Processes
The conference from which this book derives took place in Tsukuba, Japan in March 2004. The fifth in a continuing series of conferences, this one was organized to examine dynamic processes in "lower order" cognition from perception to attention to memory, considering both the behavioral and the neural levels. We were fortunate to attract a terrific group of con tributors representing five countries, which resulted in an exciting confer ence and, as the reader will quickly discover, an excellent set of chapters.

Dangerous of Pharmaceutical Waste From Hospitals and Homes on Human and Environment
The occurrence of pharmaceuticals in environment originating from hospitals and household waste has received increased scientific attention during the last decades because more than 100 different drugs have been detected in the aquatic environment at concentrations from the nanogram (ng) to the μg/l range. This research talk about improper disposal of pharmaceutical waste, impacts of some drugs included in like metals, endocrine disruptors, and various compounds that are dangerous for aquatic and human lives. The safe disposal and management of pharmaceutical waste. The origin of this problem begin due to lack of awareness about this issues beside there is no training or courses for pharmacists and people work in medical departments on pharmaceutical waste management during their academic studies.in addition, this research also talk about how to reduce the amount of pharmaceuticals waste and environmentally friendly and cost-effective ways for handling this waste, beside increase the awareness to overcome this problem.

Crop Biosecurity : Assuring our Global Food Supply
Prevention and preparedness are the two basic approaches to maximize food security against any sort of tampering, whether natural, inadvertent or intentional. The NATO funded project “Tools for crop biosecurity” was designed to strengthen the cooperation among U.S., Europe and Israel in the field of crop biosecurity and to generate awareness on how the psychological, economic and cultural consequences of crop bioterrorism, especially attacks on soft targets such as crop seeds, could have a disproportionate adverse effect on Mediterranean agriculture and, more generally, on society.This book illustrates the achievements of the project originated from the workshops organized during the project itself taking in consideration main microbiological threads posed to crops, the tools to recognize and to control them, the needs for international cooperation and research funds to create networks which can face emerging risks for agriculture.
Consequences of Unawareness in Usage of Some Medicines and Diet Routine
In the short term, imbalanced nutrition can contribute to stress, tiredness and our capacity to work, and over time, it can contribute to the risk of developing some illnesses and other health problems such as: being overweight or obese, tooth decay, high blood pressure. Such habits cause considerable damage to human existence such as loss of potential and motivation, premature aging of the human body and the acquisition of diseases of various kinds. Such habits include the consumption of the following substances and medications which we will focus on in our research project in order to contribute to the public health awareness and to provide people with the best way to eat, on the other hand as an effect, pharmacologist we will also include the possible therapy of such diseases. However, with their side and some other commune drugs we are used to take on daily terms or very often but it may have a toxic side effect.
Congenital torch infections : torch panel
TORCH is a group of infections that can be passed from the pregnant mother to her fetus through the placenta. TORCH, includes Toxoplasmosis, Other (syphilis, varicella-zoster, parvovirus B19, Hepatitis B), Rubella, Cytomegalovirus (CMV), and Herpes infections are some of the most common infections associated with congenital anomalies. Most of the TORCH infections have serious fetal consequences and there has no impact on fetal outcome. In the present article, we wanted to discuss about the causative agents/organism, mode of infection, symptoms, treatment, vaccination, available molecular biological techniques and public awareness regarding this infection, Our objective in this project is to assess the awareness of and knowledge about mother-to-child infections and prevention
