First person - Hui-Ying Tsai and Shih-Cheng Wu
No full text[[abstract]]First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Disease Models & Mechanisms, helping early-career researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Hui-Ying Tsai and Shih-Cheng Wu are co-first authors on ‘Loss of the Drosophila branched-chain α-ketoacid dehydrogenase complex results in neuronal dysfunction’, published in DMM. Hui-Ying is a research assistant in the lab of Chun-Hong Chen at National Health Research Institutes, Zhunan, Taiwan. Her research interest is modeling the human neurological disease maple syrup urine disease in Drosophila, assessing behavior as well as brain damage. Shih-Cheng is a postdoc in the same lab, with interests in modeling human disease and immunometabolism

Models of high rank for weakly scattered theories
No full textThesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mathematics, 2006.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 32-33).The Scott rank of a countable structure A, denoted sr(A), was observed by Nadel to be at most wA + 1, where wA4 is the least ordinal not recursive in A. Let T be weakly scattered and L(a,T) be E2-admissible. We give a sufficient condition, the B,-hypothesis, under which T has model A with w4A = a and sr(A) = a + 1. Given the B,-hypothesis, an iterated forcing argument is used to obtain a generic Ta D T such that Th has a model with the desired properties.by Alice Shih Ying Chan.Ph.D

Random walk, sequential analysis and related topics: A festschrift in honor of Yuan-Shih Chow.
No full text[[abstract]]This volume is a collection of papers in celebration of the 80th birthday of Yuan-Shih Chow, whose influential work in probability and mathematical statistics has contributed greatly to mathematics education and the development of statistics research and application in Taiwan and mainland China. The twenty-two papers cover a wide range of problems reflecting both the broad scope of areas where Professor Chow has made major contributions and recent advances in probability theory and statistics
Chinese History and Culture
No full textThe recipient of the Kluge Prize for lifetime achievement in the humanities, Ying-shih Yü is a premier scholar of Chinese studies. Chinese History and Culture volumes 1 and 2 bring his extraordinary oeuvre to English-speaking readers. Spanning two thousand years of social, intellectual, and political change, the essays in these volumes investigate two central questions through all aspects of Chinese life: what core values sustained this ancient civilization through centuries of upheaval, and in what ways did these values survive in modern times?</p
A Study of the Han-shih wai-chuan : Its Significance as a Collection of Anecdotes
No full textThe Han-shih wai-chuan is the oldest commentary on the Book of Odes still in existence. Though in the form of a commentary, the main interest of the work, as an examination of the contents will show, is actually in the numerous anecdotes which it contains, and the brief quotations from the Odes which are used to complete each anecdote are fragmentary and taken out of context. The reason that the book has been handed down for over two thousand years, and continues to attract readers today, is not that it is important as a commentary on the Odes, but that it constitutes an interesting collection of stories. This aspect of the work--its nature as a collection of stories--serves not only to attract the interest of the reader today, but may have a special significance in explaining how the book happened to come into being. The present writer, taking a hint from the biography of Han Ying 韓嬰, the author of the Han-shih wai-chuan, has put forward the hypothesis that the work was produced with one pariticular reader in mind. The anecdotes of which the work is made up are on the whole interesting and easy to read, picturing the famous men of early history involved in various incidents and activities. The stories are varied in subject and thought, while the quotations from the Odes which close them tend to follow a fixed pattern. Han Ying, we are told, was appointed tutor to Liu Shun 劉舜, the young king of Ch'ang-shan 常山. Considering the form of the Han-shih waichuan, the present writer wonders if Han Ying did not produce the book specifically for the instruction of his royal pupil. If this hypothesis is correct, it will help to explain why Han Ying, a recognized authority on the Book of Odes, should have put his hand to the compilation of a collection of stories of this type
