During translation, cells 'read' genetic information in the form of messenger RNA and use this as a blueprint to synthesize proteins. Translation occurs continuously in living cells and is executed by organelles called ribosomes.
Translational failure in biomedicine has led to much soul-searching about the causes for this. Amongst many others (misunderstanding of statistical tests, vibration of effects, flexibility in...
Why did we change focus from the 3Rs to Systematic Reviews? Questionnaires on the 3Rs have revealed that the 3R search gets no high priority and the 3R search process is never included in fun...
