"This is an abbreviated version of the National Academies' report on augmenting DOE's security systems at sites in the nuclear weapons complex, and particularly on the applicability of risk assessment concepts for this augmentation. The full report is entitled Understanding and managing risk in the DOE nuclear weapons complex. The full version of that report, which is exempt from public release under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. [section] 552 (b)(2), was issued in 2010. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
In Gene Sharing and Evolution Piatigorsky explores the generality and implications of gene sharing throughout evolution and argues that most if not all proteins perform a variety of functions in the same and in different species, and that this is a fundamental necessity for evolution. |
