Drosophila poly suggests a novel role for the Elongator complex in insulin receptor-target of rapamycin signalling (2012)
Journal Article
Bolukbasi, E., Vass, S., Cobbe, N., Nelson, B., Simossis, V., Dunbar, D. R., & Heck, M. M. S. (2012). Drosophila poly suggests a novel role for the Elongator complex in insulin receptor-target of rapamycin signalling. Open Biology, 2(1), 110031-110031. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsob.110031

Multi-cellular organisms need to successfully link cell growth and metabolism to environmental cues during development. Insulin receptor–target of rapamycin (InR–TOR) signalling is a highly conserved pathway that mediates this link. Herein, we descri...

In this art... Read More about Thematic elements underlying the delivery of services in high-contact public service encounters.

Enhancement of life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology to include the effect of surface albedo on climate change: Comparing black and white roofs (2012)
Journal Article
Susca, T. (2012). Enhancement of life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology to include the effect of surface albedo on climate change: Comparing black and white roofs. Environmental Pollution, 163, 48-54. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envpol.2011.12.019

Traditionally, life cycle assessment (LCA) does not estimate a key property: surface albedo. Here an enhancement of the LCA methodology has been proposed through the development and employment of a time-dependent climatological model for including th...
