This book is an autobiographical interview with Chinese Academician
Yuan Wang on his experience in mathematical research. The book
looks back on Wang's collaboration with his teacher Hua Loo-Keng
and younger scholars, offering insights into fruitful cooperation
in mathematical research. In this book, Yuan Wang’s path of
studying Goldbach conjecture is revealed in detail from motivation
to method. Then his work on algebraic number theory is traced back
in a separate chapter. The book ends with two chapters which
introduce Wang’s interest in history of mathematics and his
hobbies outside of mathematical research. Wang shows how a
mathematician can in the same time be a historical and popular
science writer and, in particular, a well-received
calligrapher. The book is intended for undergraduate and
graduate students studying number theory. Researchers who are
willing to learn from the experience of an established
mathematician, as well as math amateurs and general audience who
are interested in Yuan Wang's life story might also find this book
appealing.
This book summarizes the progress made to functional immobilize G
protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) through site-specific or
orientated recognition in both non-covalent and covalent manners.
The last decade is the dawn of the "post-structural biology" era
for G protein-coupled receptor research. As an emerging approach
for state-of-the-art immobilization, this book discusses efforts to
explore the elegance of naturally-occurring biochemical reactions
by using their high specificity and robust reactivity in the
complex system, such as site-specific conjugation by covalent
recognition between enzymes and their substrates. With the
perspective of protein-drug interactions, this book also reviews
the applications of protein immobilization, with an emphasis on G
protein-coupled receptors, in drug discovery and protein-ligand
interaction analysis. In addition, the merits, opportunities and
disadvantages are analyzed for different immobilization methods,
and a perspective for future directions is presented. Given its
scope, this book appeals to a broad readership, particularly
researchers engaged in the field of analytical chemistry,
bioconjugate chemistry, and chemical biology, and other related
field, as well as teachers of relevant majors in colleges and
universities.
Therapeutic Targets For Diabetic Retinopathy: A Translational
Approach offers a consolidated view of this complex disorder by
summarizing the latest evidence-based studies and translating their
findings into practical, actionable knowledge. This concise
resource covers the fundamentals of diabetic retinopathy and
diabetic macular edema with an emphasis on basic science and
therapeutic targets on the horizon. Ophthalmologists, optometrists,
and researchers will find the translational approach to this common
eye disorder to be useful in both research and clinical practice
settings. Takes a concise yet comprehensive approach to diabetic
eye disorders, covering basic science as well as therapeutic agents
with both current and future clinical applications. Covers current
diagnostic and management guidelines as well developments on the
horizon that are likely to improve patient outcomes. Explains the
pathophysiological mechanisms of diabetic retinopathy and diabetic
macular edema from both a basic and clinical perspective, helping
readers seek promising new therapeutic targets. Consolidates
today's available information on this timely topic into a single,
convenient resource.
Spatial Cognitive Engine Technology discusses the increase in user
demand for satellite wireless communication services that has led
to the increasing development of spectrum resources and the fixed
spectrum allocation mode which makes the utilization rate of
spectrum resources lower. As an intelligent spectrum sharing
technology, cognitive radio has innovated the traditional spectrum
management system and is one of the effective ways to solve the
above-mentioned problems. As the core of satellite cognitive radio,
the spatial cognitive engine can use artificial intelligence to
dynamically configure working parameters according to changes in
the communication environment and user needs.
This is the first transcultural mental health project focusing on
sport. The book highlights the psychological problems and mental
crisis of athletes beyond the competition from "Western" and
Eastern cultural perspectives as reflected by DSM IV TR and
Traditional Chinese Medical Psychology (TCMP). The first chapter
offers an overview of the transcultural approach in sport. The
second chapter presents a basic introduction of the diagnostical
systems of DSM IV TR and TCMP. The third chapter is focusing on
case studies of athletes from different cultural backgrounds,
especially on Asian athletes, and mainly on the previous research
on DSM depression and TCM You Y depression. It is useful to
professionals in sport sciences, psychology, medicine, sociology,
and cultural anthropology. Coaches, athletes in all sport
disciplines and sport managers will equally benefit as everyone
practicing or interested in sports.
