Received the complimentary copy of this Great Book, a pioneering reference in Personalized Medicine, titled: Integrative Neuroscience and Personalized Medicine (2011),  Edited by Evian Gordon and Stephen H. Koslow. The very interesting content of this book makes this difficult to forgo in any second of your time. The topics/chapters in this book include: Personalized Medicine for Schizophrenia; The Role of Neuroimaging Biomarkers in Personalized Medicine, Stress and the Impact of Personalized Medicine, Autonomic Nervous System Markers for Disorders,  Accelerating the future of Personalized Medicine...more on this will be displayed in the ISCSPM web page... Thanks a lot for sending this complimentary copy!

Savillo, Isidro T.-Selected by the American Biographical Institute to be a recipient of its
  -ALBERT EINSTEIN AWARD OF EXCELLENCE FOR 2011
-Nominated by the American Biographical Institute to appear in the Great Minds of 21st century (5th Edition)

4/14/2011~~ A copy of a dissertation from a PhD student in a country in Africa will be sent as a way of acknowledging my assistance- lichen id.  Congratulations!  and  We'll support your interest in lichens especially your plan for an extensive lichenological work in your country the first ever. I would like to see you as the only African expert on lichens in Africa.

5/2011~~ No two individuals are alike; no two daughter cells are the same; no monozygotic twins are similar-  SM and BM are not PM (Thanks for the info)

Click Here for the new article (2011).. How inspiring to write something with this title - Molecular Perspective: How much of a plant is a leaf and vice versa?
05/08/2011`` New!! An Encyclopedia of Plants (Online) Start with Cordyline fruticosa.

 

04/16/2011- Goethe's (1790), Gunning's (1874), and Savillo's(2011) Theory of "Plant is a Leaf"- Thanks for the info..

What is the difference between Goethe's statement- "Every Part of  the Plant is a Leaf" from the statement of Gunning and Savillo that a "Plant is a Leaf" ?

"It is astonishing to know that besides the common leaf, the plant is also engrossed in modified leaves of various sorts." by Prof. Isidro T. Savillo- 04/16/2011

3/27/2011~~From megasporophylls, to petals to tendrils and thorns to bracts... we need a chapter or a book or a thorough review (in an online journal) of modified leaves in such a way that the "stuck" scientific definition of modified leaves of long ago  has to be redefined in order to accommodate all the additional new knowledge that are being unearthed and brought to the public attention..( use google chrome).
  Molecularly speaking, how much of a plant is a leaf?  And how much of a leaf is a plant? The latter is easier to answer.

4/06/2011~~It's a pondering interest to  say that a plant is a leaf (In one flower species , a shoot sprout out from the whorl of petals*) equates with the statement that the leaf is a plant.
*The "leafy"gene which code for the modified leaves has been switched to the production of a shoot instead.  Another rationale here is that the 4 basic floral organs minus the receptacle are modified leaves: sepals, petals, pistil and stamen. When it comes to reproduction, these two modified leaves will produce the seeds and the seeds will eventually become seedlings and later grow as plant.  Be writing an article on the "Molecular Wonders of a Leaf" [Plant is a Leaf: Leaf is a Plant][Reserved]
