One of the most important controversies about human evolution and expansion is when and by what route the first hominids arrived in Europe from the African continent. Now, geological dating techniques at the Orce sites (Baza basin, Granada, Spain) place the human remains found in this area as the oldest in Europe, at approximately 1.3 million years old.

The ability of binding pose metadynamics to improve the rankings of true targets predicted via pharmacophore mapping was investigated using three diverse ligands and their six true targets. Binding pose metadynamics improved the predicted rankings for four out of the six true targets, while also providing the highest-ranked predictions. Abstract Computational target fishing plays an important role in target identification, particularly in drug discovery campaigns utilizing phenotypic screening.

Our universe is around 13.8 billion years old. Over the vastness of this time, the tiniest of initial asymmetries have grown into the large-scale structures we can see through our telescopes in the night sky: galaxies like our own Milky Way, clusters of galaxies, and even larger aggregations of matter or filaments of gas and dust. How quickly this growth takes place depends, at least in today's universe, on a sort of wrestling match between natural forces: Can dark matter, which holds everything

We set up some Editor Descriptor attributes, and applied a decorator to the properties in the model classes, which worked well. Then they wanted changes. The problem is that figuring out who has access requires looking at the code. Any updates require code changes, which becomes a big deal when the properties are already in Production.
