T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and T-cell acute lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) are aggressive hematological malignancies that arise from abnormal activation of oncogenes and/or inactivation of tumor-suppressor genes, followed by a differentiation arrest and uncontrolled clonal expansion of immature thymocytes . Proviral integration site for Moloney-murine leukemia 1 (PIM1) is a known JAK-STAT target gene that […]
Author: Alexander Lewis Peace, Associate Professor, Structural Geology, McMaster University Recent seismic imaging off Vancouver Island has revealed something extraordinary: a tear in the subducting oceanic plate beneath the Cascadia Subduction Zone. The finding briefly raised the public’s hopes that Cascadia might be “shutting down,” potentially lowering earthquake risk in North America’s Pacific Northwest. A […]
Author: Hossein Hashemi, Senior Lecturer, Division of Water Resources Engineering & Centre for Advanced Middle Eastern Studies, Lund University In recent years, residents of Spain, France and the UK have looked up to see an eerie sight: deep orange sunrises and skies thick with a yellowish haze. These hazy skies often deposit “blood rain”, rust-colored […]

Author: Henry Taylor, Associate Professor, Department of Philosophy, University of Birmingham What can you see right now? This might seem like a silly question, but what enters your consciousness is not the whole story when it comes to vision. A great deal of visual processing in the brain goes on well below our conscious awareness […]
Author: Ry Holland, Research Fellow in Microbial Ecology, Monash University Winter in Antarctica is long and dark. Temperatures remain well below freezing. In many places, the Sun sets in April and does not rise above the horizon again until August. Without sunlight, photosynthetic life such as plants, mosses and algae cannot make energy. But that’s […]
T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) is a precursor T cell lymphoma. T-LBL represents the second most common subtype of Non-Hodgkin lymphoma in both children and adolescents; however, it is less common in adults . T-LBL share many characteristics with the precursor T cell leukemia (T-ALL), however, various studies have indicated that T-ALL and T-LBL might be […]
