In this light, study of metal interactions in animals and animal cells offer the exciting possibility of resolving many molecular, biochemical, biomedical, physiological and environmental questions which remain open. The present issue aims at bringing together, under a metallomics perspective, important contributions to the field of metal metabolism in animals.
This book presents essential knowledge and key facts about breast cancer. It is divided into two sections. Section 1 about Epidemiology, Social Conditions and General Information. Section 2 about Treatments.
For centuries, the Mosque of Eyüp Sultan has been one of Istanbul’s most important pilgrimage destinations, in large part because of the figure buried in the tomb at its center: Halid bin Zeyd Ebû Eyûb el-Ensârî, a Companion of the Prophet Muhammad. Timur Hammond argues here, however, that making a geography of Islam involves considerably more. Following practices of storytelling and bu…
This volume offers insights into the role of private supplementary tutoring in the Middle East, and its far-reaching implications for social structures and mainstream education. Around the world, increasing numbers of children receive private tutoring to supplement their schooling. In much of the academic literature this is called shadow education because the content of tutoring commonly mimics…
A Special Issue in Molecules was guest edited by us and collected 15 research articles which focused on various aspects of protein ligand interactions using wide range of experimental and computational tools. We are grateful to Jessica Wang, Section Managing Editor of MDPI who provided a dedicated and wonderful professional support for organizing this work. I hope that this reprint makes for in…
This book clearly explains the principles of molecular docking and molecular dynamics. It includes examples of algorithms and procedures proposed by different software programs for visualizing and identifying potential interactions in complexes of biochemical interest. The book is organized into six chapters, each one discussing different molecular simulation methodologies and providing concret…
In this open-access monograph, Paul Weller explores how the movement known as Hizmet (meaning “service”) is undergoing a period of transitions in Europe. Inspired by the teaching and practice of the Turkish Islamic scholar, Fethullah Gülen, Hizmet has been active in Europe (and other continents) for several decades. It has always been subject to some degree of contestation, which has inten…
A massive reference work on the scale of MITECS (The MIT Encyclopedia of Cognitive Sciences), The MIT Encyclopedia of Communication Disorders will become the standard reference in this field for both research and clinical use. It offers almost 200 detailed entries, covering the entire range of communication and speech disorders in children and adults, from basic science to clinical diagnosis.MI…
This book is based on the Special Issue of the journal Molecules on ‘Molecular Modeling in Drug Design’. This collection of research and review articles provides a snapshot of the state-of-the-art of molecular modeling in drug design, illustrating recent advances and critically discussing important challenges. The topics covered include virtual screening and pharmacophore modelling, chemoin…
