This comes in handy. One of the most important proteins in the cell, c-Myc, is more fully the “avian myelocytomatosis virus oncogene cellular homolog” protein, and you can see encoded in that the winding road that it took from a viral bird disease. That means no supplementary power from fossil fuel.

I was just entering in names for the Psathyropus section of the Palpatores nomenclator, which requires me to form said new combinations. You can wait around until Betelgeuse explodes into a supernova and you still won’t see anyone naming a clinical trial anything like that. Every major carmaker is working towards Autonomous, Connected, Electrified and Shared vehicles: ACES. We suggest a second use for DNA: do not abbreviate. Well-named things are easier to understand. But no, clinical candidates are named things like “ZZY49” or something like that, and couldn’t we just name the trials for them “ZZY49 Trial A”, “ZZY49 Trial B” and stuff like that?

It might be easier to search for clinical trials that you may be elligible for when they have names, rather than a confusing string of letters and numbers. I just knew somebody else would remember that one…. And at least you can look up strategies for cache invalidation and figure out which ones are applicable to your current problem. microgram (mu-gram) is 10-6 grams. That could be a non-plug-in hybrid (like a Toyota Prius), a BEV, PHEV or even a hydrogen powered vehicle. both reactions.

At the moment that covers lots of stuff up to Level 2 autonomy (there are five levels, all the way to self-driving) and could include anything from a forward collision warning system to adaptive cruise control that can keep you the correct distance from the car in front and even help with steering to keep you straight in the lane. And while it’s a cranky piece, it’s not wrong. I admit that I love the fact that two of the old classic experiments go by the names INEPT and INADEQUATE, and that there’s another sequence called the HOHAHA. Nope, we apparently can’t. Not sure I can agree with that; a few people I know have been nailed for insider trading. Meanwhile, so many three letter acronyms were generated by the authors of the documentation for the VMS operating system for minicomputers, that this was referred to as an explosion of TLAs. In actual practice, everyone calls it “mick” or “see-mick”; if you refer to it by that longer name 98% of researchers will tilt their heads at you like a puzzled Corgi. Why not name them in the same way as US military actions? Nope, we apparently can’t.
Actually TLA is an abbreviation for either three-letter acronym or three-letter abbreviation. quantum mechanics because reducible to the description of fission debris in pointlike approximation.

It means Internal Combustion Engine. As a former resident of Germany you might also enjoy Nüsslein-Vollhard’s Drosophila naming scheme with Spätzle, Krüppel etc. A protein gets discovered and named something catchy, but turns out to be the least interesting and important member of its class, but then everything else gets named after it anyway, and so on, even to the point of naming things across species.
You could actually argue there's just one acronym you need to know and this is it, because it covers the present and future direction of virtually the entire industry. With good reason. TNF(alpha) (tumor necrosis factor) on the other hand is a misleading name that causes confusion. mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase, https://what3words.com/wounds.client.face, https://www.jcs.mil/Portals/36/Documents/Doctrine/pubs/dictionary.pdf, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton-enhanced_nuclear_induction_spectroscopy, https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0092867400812052, https://www.ismp.org/recommendations/error-prone-abbreviations-list, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rn4cnURrwik, Thunder Energies Corporation, home of convex lenses to allow telescopes to detect antimatter-galaxies, http://news.mit.edu/2015/how-three-mit-students-fooled-scientific-journals-0414, https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01154829, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency-resolved_optical_gating, https://link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/PhysRevA.71.011401, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_phase_interferometry_for_direct_electric-field_reconstruction, https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00340-002-0894-8, American Association for the Advancement of Science. It seems new because it's often now used as a pejorative term by the EV crowd: you might have heard of "ICEholes" for example. A Nissan Leaf is an EV. We defined an acronym as a word in which half or more of the characters are upper case letters. A MAPK itself can be phosphorylated, by (what else?) “PHP” stands for “PHP Hypertext Preprocessor”… . (I have to admit, that one does deserve some rueful admiration). This approach might also make articles easier to read and understand, and even help avoid potential confusion (as HR can also mean hazard ratio or hour). The favoured term for vehicles that rely solely on electric power is BEV, or Battery Electric Vehicle. “But no, clinical candidates are named things like “ZZY49” or something like that, and couldn’t we just name the trials for them “ZZY49 Trial A”, “ZZY49 Trial B” and stuff like that?”. Throw a few of these around and you might even sound like a car expert. Not just the glamour pure-EVs, but all forms of power that use electricity - in full or in part. They’re acronym fiends, too (that site is actually a very short list), and the names they’re based on are often syncretic gravel heaps full of tacked-on historical accidents. What does COVID-19 stand for? We examined acronyms because they can be objectively identified and reflect changes in specialisation and clarity in writing. Turns out there’s a very closely related paralog of HIP just downstream on the same chromosome. I don’t think I would enroll in a trial called “Druggy McDrugface”. Medical Insurance Terminology and Acronyms 2019. The average title length increased from 9.0 words in 1950 to 14.6 words in 2019, and shows no sign of flattening. Derek’s hotlink from “building” goes to https://www.ismp.org/recommendations/error-prone-abbreviations-list . This is a new one that has its origins in China but is coming into mainstream use around the world: NEV, or New Energy Vehicle. All rights Reserved.

The time taken for acronyms to be re-used has also increased over time (Figure 2), indicating that acronyms created today are less likely to be re-used than previously created acronyms. Names may have legal status, and in science we want to be sure we are all talking about the same thing. “It’s only a matter of time before Thunder Energies Corporation … gets a pharma subsidiary.” That seems to make sense as you might need some potent pharmaceuticals to visualize those things. And wikipedia lists 60 other “Notable” recursive acronyms. Most carmakers are working towards true autonomous driving. We examined acronyms because they can be objectively identified and reflect changes in specialisation and clarity in writing. • This glossary has many commonly used terms, but isn't a full list. hERG’s full name is human ether-a-go-go related gene, they got to be descriptive on that one too. Sure. It’s only a matter of time before Thunder Energies Corporation, home of convex lenses to allow telescopes to detect antimatter-galaxies, gets a pharma subsidiary. It might come in handy at one of my translation jobs (you never know what you might need in the field of popular literature those days). Because I interact with people in many fields and acronyms are used a lot, I sometimes have to interrupt or ask them to wait while my brain switches from chemistry mode to biochemistry mode and so on. Like a free-ranging hotel suite. Because the companies want to see valiant, forceful, forward-looking acronyms in every press release and writeup instead of something boring. Here are the five automotive acronyms that you need to know to keep up with car technology in 2019. “Due to the suggestive nature of its acronym (PENIS), the proposed name for this pulse sequence was never widely accepted. Careful to not fall victim to TOS. We’ll never straighten all of this out now. What could e…, We still don’t have a working quantum computer that can solve problems of practical importance faster than your lap…, Imparting health education during developmental years – during childhood itself – could be instrumental in steering…, In May, WHO warned that 190,000 people on the continent could die if containment measures failed. Carmakers are not done with ICE yet: Mazda's SkyActiv-X makes huge advances in tech and efficiency. Many carmakers believe that private ownership of vehicles will no longer be the norm in the future and that many cars will shared  - either in small groups or by big companies as a mobility service. Entrenched writing styles in science are difficult to shift (Doubleday and Connell, 2017), and the creation of new acronyms has become an acceptable part of scientific practice, and for clinical trials is a recognised form of branding (Pottegård et al., 2014). Three letter acronyms (jokingly called TLAs) were also more popular than acronyms of two and four letters.

I was at a talk by Gareth Morris once and he said INEPT was deliberately named because he was sick of pulse sequences with flash names that didn’t work.
