The CODATwins Project: The Cohort Description of Collaborative Project of Development of Anthropometrical Measures in Twins to Study Macro-Environmental Variation in Genetic and Environmental Effects on Anthropometric Traits
(2015-05-27)
For over 100 years, the genetics of human anthropometric traits has attracted scientific interest. In particular,
height and body mass index (BMI, calculated as kg/m2) have been under intensive genetic research.
However, ...
Genetic and environmental effects on body mass index from infancy to the onset of adulthood: an individual-based pooled analysis of 45 twin cohorts participating in the COllaborative project of Development of Anthropometrical measures in Twins (CODATwins) study
(Elsevier, 2016-07-13)
Background: Both genetic and environmental factors are known to affect body mass index (BMI), but detailed understanding of how their effects differ during childhood and adolescence is lacking. Objectives: We analyzed the ...
Enantioselective Construction of Tetrasubstituted Stereogenic Carbons through Brønsted Base Catalyzed Michael Reactions: α´-Hydroxy Enones as Key Enoate Equivalent
(ACS, 2014-11-25)
Catalytic and asymmetric Michael reactions constitute very powerful tools for the construction of new C–C bonds in synthesis, but most of the reports claiming high selectivity are limited to some specific combinations of ...
