Soil moisture revamps the temperature extremes in a warming climate over India
We note that more than 70% area of the Indian landmass has experienced significant changes in characteristics of temperature extremes due to soil moisture perturbations, through modulating surface energy partitioning, evapotranspiration and soil moisture memory.
Unusual PDGFRB fusion reveals novel mechanism of kinase activation in Ph-like B-ALL
The detailed functional study of rare and unusual genomic events in patient cancer samples can provide some unique and important biological insights. We have uncovered a novel mechanism of tyrosine kinase activation in a form of leukaemia in which tyrosine kinase activation is the hallmark.
