Delay-and-pay: prolonging pharmaceutical patent protection without paying the ‘price’ by Foss-Solbrekk, K

“…My doctrinal analysis establishes that the generic/biosimilar defendants’ loss is likely undercompensated and the money that national health authorities spent purchasing the more expensive, patented drug whilst the interim injunction remained in effect is not usually compensated following a patent revocation and discharged injunction. …”

Territorial movements of African lions: can waterholes shape multiple central-place territories in a savanna ecosystem? by Dejeante, R, Loveridge, A, Macdonald, D, Madlamoto, D, Chamaille-James, S, Valeix, M

“…We hypothesized that male lions would be more likely to patrol a buffer area around the territory core to defend a core area where social interactions with groupmates occur, whereas female lions would more specifically patrol hunting sites, i.e. waterhole areas. …”

Investigating the role of lysine demethylase UTX-1 in lifespan regulation of C. elegans by Guillermo, A

“…Overall, the work in this thesis, which also includes analysis of <em>cbp-1</em> (H3K27 acetyl transferase), suggests that lifespan regulation due to H3K27 modification is incredibly complex and that longevity is mediated differentially as a consequence of different doses of modifier, and in specific tissues, likely due to transcriptional changes mediated by the demethylase function of UTX-1.…”
