Book Description
I’ve always wondered why you care about me. I don’t deserve you. I don’t even know why you chose to adopt me of all people. And after the horrible things I’ve done to you, you still look at me like I’m the most precious person in the world. What brings you to do this? Why would someone as great as you, even smile at me? Among all the curious creatures on this planet, you are by far the most baffling. I hope that one day, you’ll tell me the reason why you look at me like that. But one thing’s for sure, whatever happens with us, I know you’ll always be my brother. Or perhaps, something more

Understanding the High Performance Workplace
Author: Neal M. Ashkanasy
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317626230
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 337
Book Description
This book asks the crucial question: When does high performance supervision become abusive supervision? As more organizations push to adopt high performance work practices (HPWP), the onus increasingly falls on supervisors to do whatever it takes to maximize the productivity of their work teams. In this rigorous, research-based volume, international contributors offer insight into how and when seemingly-beneficial workplace practices cross the line from motivation to abuse. By reviewing critical issues in both high performance work practices and abusive supervision, it illuminates the crossover between these two modes of work, and forges a path for future scholarship.

Investigating and harnessing T-cell functions with engineered immune receptors and their ligands
Author: Bruno Laugel
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 2889194132
Category : Immunologic diseases. Allergy
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
T-cells are an essential component of the immune system that provide protection against pathogen infections and cancer and are involved in the aetiology of numerous autoimmune and autoinflammatory pathologies. Their importance in disease, the relative ease to isolate, expand and manipulate them ex vivo have put T-cells at the forefront of basic and translational research in immunology. Decades of study have shed some light on the unique way T-cells integrate extrinsic environmental cues influencing an activation program triggered by interactions between peptide-MHC complexes and the antigen-recognition machinery constituted of clonally distributed T-cell receptors and their co-receptor CD4 or CD8. The manipulation of these molecular determinants in cellular systems or as recombinant proteins has considerably enhanced our ability to understand antigen-specific T-cell activation, to monitor ongoing T-cell responses and to exploit T-cells for therapy. Even though these principles have given numerous insights in the biology of CD8+ T-cells that translate into promising therapeutic prospects, as illustrated by recent breakthroughs in cancer therapy, they have proven more challenging to apply to CD4+ T-cells. This Research Topic aims to provide a comprehensive view of the recent insights provided by the use of engineered antigen receptors and their ligands on T-cell activation and how they have been or could be harnessed to design efficient immunotherapies.
