Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is a technique used to amplify DNA/RNA and can be quantitative (qRT-PCR).This assignment is designed to introduce you to the UCSC Genome Browser, which is a powerful tool for molecular biologists. The Genome Browser contains an In-Silico PCR function, which allows you to design and test primers for proper gene amplification.For a tutorial on how to perform this assignment (provided by UCSC genome browser), please watch this video (8 min long) located on the In-Silico PCR page. choose a gene of interest (any gene you would like to amplify) and develop primers to amplify it. You need to submit an assignment report in any text format containing the following information: The gene that you chose to amplify. For a list of human genes, click here.The Forward and Reverse primer sequences that you chose or designed in order to amplify the gene.The results of an In-Silico PCR of your gene of interest using the primers that you designed (copy paste this directly from the In-Silico PCR tool) . Ideally, your primers should be 15-25 nucleotides in length and the melting temp of the primers should be 55C-62C.

OCBC Bank Case Study Analyze OCBC Bank after reading this article (Links to an external site.). In a three- to five-page paper (not including the title and references pages), address the following: Describe OCBC’s unique approach to talent management and development. Compare OCBC’s approach to talent management and development to other organizations you are familiar with (e.g., current or past employers, a family business). Explain how OCBC’s approach to talent management and employee development been a primary contributing factor to the firm’s success. Evaluate the extent to which OCBC’s approach to talent management and development fits other organizations or industries, including some limitations if applied elsewhere without modification. Conduct some additional internet research on OCBC, and examine how OCBC has performed recently—what has it done more of, less of, or differently from in the area of human resource management. ‘ Book:  Youssef-Morgan, C.

For full points, you must respond to each question in at least 3-5 sentences.  Please use question and answer format, writing the question immediately before your response. *Note: You will not be able to answer the Top Hat questions that were presented during the live class.  Instead, you are required to answer the questions listed below. Post-Lecture Responses Questions In class we did an activity. What was the purpose of this activity? What came to your attention while watching this activity? Why is the employment rate of people with disabilities low? Describe one of the benefits of hiring people with disabilities. If you were in a position of power to employ people with disabilities which of the benefits would be most important to you? Why? Respond to our guest speaker Jonathan Deguzman. What is his connection with employment of people with disabilities? What is something that surprised you from his experience that ties to this topic.Â

I’m working on a health & medical discussion question and need a reference to help me learn. We can talk all day about social justice and how things need to change; however change requires action. Groups and organizations have dedicated themselves to promoting equity and justice within our societies. Let’s learn more about what some of these organizations do! Your Tasks Task 1- Research Review this list (Links to an external site.) of organizations who have dedicated themselves to the social justice cause. Choose one that you would like to do more research on. Task 2- Original Post Next, you will need to create your discussion post. Your post must address the following: What is the name of the organization? Which social injustice(s) is/are their main focus? (e.g., human trafficking, racial injustice, etc.) Why did you choose this organization? What is their mission statement (Links to an external site.)? Briefly describe the history of the organization. In other words, why was this organization created? Describe research that they are working on and/or current projects/ programs that they have? Briefly describe 1-2 of these?Â

Rejected by the Franciscans, he became a Trappist monk under a vow of silence who maintained an immense correspondence with people around the world (including the Dalai Lama and Thick Nhat Hanh). He lived half his life “in the world” and the half of his life “away from the world,” and then managed to elec- trocute himself in a Bangkok hotel the first time he was away from his monastery. His body was flown back to the US in a military aircraft that normally carried atomic weapons (he was a strong opponent of the nuclear arms race). DISCUSS THE FOLLOWING: Why is it that Merton (and many others) find that they must withdraw from the world in order to engage it more fully?
