Humans are complex beings. Compared to different species, humans experience conditions well embedded in complex webs of memories, present states and future expectations. If humans have critical rites of passage including most notably birth, marriage and death (each loaded by emotions and ideations defined largely by cultural frameworks in which groups of similar communities interact), a human condition can, accordingly, be defined based on resultant interactions between such critical rites or, more broadly, based on given characteristics, key events and situations composing essentials of one or another human condition. The range of human conditions is, indeed, limitless and can ...

Project management entails the application of tools, knowledge, processes, techniques, experience and skills in achieving a particular project activity to meet the intended goal. A project is usually a unique endeavor that is undertaken to attain a specific objective whose success is defined in terms of the overall benefit or output. Thus, project management process helps in the attainment of the desired outcome according to the agreed budget, criteria, and timescale (Hyväri, 2006). According to Mir & Pinnington (2014), projects are different to business activities as they require the particular stakeholders involved to come together and focus on the ...

Strategy is an essential part of any organization. Its types can be differentiated on the basis of their deliberate and emergent methods of implementation (Mintzberg & Waters, 1985, p. 257). Project management may be argued to be inherently included in the strategy development, because strategy includes directing an organization and responding to challenges on the way to strategy implementation (Mintzberg & Waters, 1985, p. 271). Relative emphasis of the strategy is flexible, but these two features are a requirement of sound strategy development (Mintzberg & Waters, 1985, p. 257). The way managers track strategies is significant for ‘strategic control’, which is an ...

Project management is a crucial aspect when doing a new activity such as the construction of buildings and other structures. Management is necessary for scheduling of activities, doing the work breakdown structures, allocation of resources, and monitoring the progress (Mir and Pinnington). Technology has enabled the use of computer software in project management, unlike in the past when projects were done manually without involving any software or computing technology. In the past projects were done based on the design and the understanding of the engineer and other developers involved. Some of the constructions of the past were pyramids and ...

Why do Muslim women cover their hair?

It is the commonly approved norm among the followers of Islam that a Muslim woman needs to cover-up her head and most part of her hair exposing just her face. This general norm is part of the general, accepted dress code and social practice norms which Islam preaches. This dress code suggestion is hence an integral fraction of the existing standard social system of Islam, and the materialization of significant common principles of Islam, that are applicable to all believers of Islam. Precisely, a modern, well-educated Muslim woman follows the norm about covering her hair because she prefers to ...

MicroRNAs are small, single-stranded, non-coding, 16–29 nucleotide RNA molecules (approximately 22 nucleotides in length) comprising of an evolutionarily conserved class of endogenous ribo-regulators that regulate (modulate) gene expression (Wiemer, 2007, p.1529; Zhang et al., 2006, p.9136; Garzon et al., 2009, p.168). They were discovered in 1993 in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (Espinosa & Slack, 2006, p.131). Currently, 4167 miRNAs are listed in the miRNA registry and 474 human miRNAs have been identified (Wiemer, 2007, p.1530).

The miRNA genes are dispersed across the genome in gene clusters or as single genes. At least 50% of the miRNA genes are ...

Literature Review Plan

Introduction This section begins with the definition and a brief introduction of microRNA, its biogenesis and mode of action, how to identify miRNA targets, and the various functions of miRNA. The definition of tumorigenesis is also presented here. The section then concludes with a brief description of the topic and the importance of the topic.

The main theme

The main theme here is the role of miRNA in tumorigenesis. This section begins with a general overview of miRNA and cancer. It highlights the families of miRNAs with tumour suppressing activity such as MiR-15a and miR-16-1, and the Let-7 family. Also considered are the families ...
