In this paper, recent advances in surfactant enhanced oil recovery (EOR) are reviewed. The
addition of alkali to surfactant flooding in the 1980s reduced the amount of surfactant …

The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) has used the latest sequencing and analysis methods to
identify somatic variants across thousands of tumours. Here we present data and analytical …

The Alzheimer Disease Genetics Consortium (ADGC) performed a genome-wide association
study of late-onset Alzheimer disease using a three-stage design consisting of a discovery …

Cancer is a disease driven by genetic variation and mutation. Exome sequencing can be
utilized for discovering these variants and mutations across hundreds of tumors. Here we …

Most patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) die from progressive disease after relapse,
which is associated with clonal evolution at the cytogenetic level 1 , 2 . To determine the …

Elimination of amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) from the brain is poorly understood. After intracerebral
microinjections in young mice, 125 I-Aβ 1-40 was rapidly removed from the brain (t 1/2 ≤ 25 …

To correlate the variable clinical features of oestrogen-receptor-positive breast cancer with
somatic alterations, we studied pretreatment tumour biopsies accrued from patients in two …

Several genetic alterations characteristic of leukemia and lymphoma have been detected in
the blood of individuals without apparent hematological malignancies. The Cancer Genome …
