Biomagnetism. Biomagnetism is the phenomenon of magnetic fields produced by living organisms; it is a subset of bioelectromagnetism. In contrast, organisms' use of magnetism in navigation is magnetoception and the study of the magnetic fields' effects on organisms is magnetobiology. (The word biomagnetism has also been used loosely to include magnetobiology, further encompassing almost any combination of the words magnetism, cosmology, and biology, such as "magnetoastrobiology".)
The origin of the word biomagnetism is unclear, but seems to have appeared several hundred years ago, linked to the expression "animal magnetism. " The present scientific definition took form in the 1970s, when an increasing number of researchers began to measure the magnetic fields produced by the human body.

High-throughput analysis of multiple stress pathways using GFP reporters in C. elegans. Abstract: Stress-responsive genes belonging to multiple defensive pathways in the nematode C. elegans are cross-regulated by kinase signalling (AKT-1/-2, p38 MAPK) and transcription factors (DAF-16, SKN-1). This cross-talk between stress pathways implies that they are best regarded as a stress-response network (SRN), whose behaviour as a whole should be amenable to mathematical modelling. We have used GFP reporter strains to provide a rapid readout of expression levels for 24 genes, representing principal outputs and transcription factors in the heat-shock, metal-binding, oxidative stress, phase I & phase II detoxification, and genotoxic stress pathways. Acute toxicity data (up to ~24 h) has been generated for selected metal (presented here) and pesticide toxicants across a wide range of doses, and common response patterns identified.
Future work will test the accuracy of such predictions, leading to an iterative process of model refinement. Tools for creating ideas. You're now signed up. Welcome to the Polyglot Project.
