  • 최근 선진국에서의 IT 기술발전은 매우 급속하여 현장활용을 위한 개발 활동이 채 따라가지 못할 정도이다. 첨단기술의 발전과 이의 응용을 위한 개발과의 격차는 농업기상분야에서도 마찬가지이다. 여기에서는 농업기상정보 교환을 위해 그 활용이 증대될 것으로 기대되는 기술들의 발전현황을 다루고 있다. 한가지 새겨 두어야 할 점은 IT기술 발전은 단지 정보원에서 사용자에게로의 정보전달을 가속화하는데 사용되는 교환통로라는 점이다. 본 논문에서는 교환에 대한 정의 검토를 시도하였다. 결론적으로 여러 가지 논문 검토를 통해 살펴 본 바 교환은 "의미의 공유"라고 정의할 수 있다. 이들 논문에 의하면 실질적인 정보교환통로는 국가의 경제수준에 관계없이 매우 유사하였으며, 단지 차이가 있다면 일부 국가에서는 다른 나라에 비해 좀더 접근이 용이하다는 점뿐이었다. 보편적인 교환통로로는 신문, 농민신문, 라디오, TV, 팩스, 전자우편, 휴대폰 및 인터넷 웹을 들 수 있다. 한편 통신기술이 발전함에 따라 전 세계적으로 휴대폰의 유용성이 점차 높아지고 있다. 이러한 기술을 더욱 잘 활용하기 위해서는 이 기술을 이용할 사람들이 상세하지는 않더라도 최신기술을 운용하여 필요 자료를 획득하기 위한 기본적인 작동기술을 이해하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 첨단기술활용의 장애요인으로는 농업기상정보교환이 원래 상당한 자원을 요구하고, 정교한 농업모의모형을 구동하기 위해서는 많은 비용이 든다는 점이다.

  • Color conversion layer refers to a layer that converts the blue light emitted from the backlight into the red and green light. Heavy metal-free quantum dots and perovskite nanocrystals have attracted great attention as base materials for color conversion layers due to their outstanding optical characteristics. Here, we review recent advances in the development of color conversion layers based on quantum dots. First, we overview the representative optical characteristics of quantum dots and perovskite nanocrystals, and then introduce printing techniques for color converting layers including photolithography, inkjet printing, and nanoimprinting. Finally, we conclude this review with a brief perspective.

  • Lignin-derived porous carbon has been identified as a versatile electrode material for supercapacitors (SCs) in energy storage systems (ESSs) owing to their intrinsic advantages including good electrical conductivity, low cost, high thermal and chemical stability, and high porosity, which stem from high surface, appropriate pore distribution, tailored morphologies, heterostructures, and diverse derivates. In this review, to provide a fundamental understanding of the properties of lignin, we first summarize the origin, historical development, and basic physicochemical properties. Next, we describe essential strategies for the preparation of lignin-derived porous carbon electrode materials and then highlight the latest advances in the utilization of lignin-derived porous carbon materials as advanced electrode materials. Finally, we provide some of our own insights into the major challenges and prospective research directions of lignin-derived porous carbon materials for supercapacitors. We believe that this review will provide general guidance for the design of next-generation electrode materials for supercapacitors.

  • Cloning technology continues to capture widespread attention by the international news media and biomedical and agricultural industries. The future uses of this technology could potentially contribute to major advances in biomedical and agricultural sciences. Cloned transgenic dairy cattle possessing milk promoters directing transgenes will produce pharmaceutical proteins in their milk faster, more efficiently and less expensively than transgenic cattle created using microinjection techniques. Additionally, cloned transgenic fetuses and animals may become a source of cells, tissue and organs for xenotransplantation. Lastly, but maybe most importantly, enhanced production traits and disease resistance may be realized in animal agriculture by utilizing these new technologies. The recent advances in the cattle cloning technology are important but there are still major obstacles preventing widespread commercial use of this technology. The type of donor nucleus, recipient cytoplasm, and cloning procedures used will impact the potential number of clones produced and the uses of the technology. In addition, the new advances in cloning methodology have not improved the relatively low pregnancy rates or reduced the incidence of health problems observed in cloned offspring. These problems may require novel techniques to decipher their cause and new methods of preventing and/or diagnosing them in the preimplantation embryo. The commercial potential is enormous for cloning technology; however, little has been done to improve the efficiencies of the procedure. Improving procedural efficiencies is a critical developmental milestone especially for potential uses of cloning technology in animal agriculture.

  • With advances in technology, advances in the understanding of biology of cancer, and the advent of improved and novel therapies, the role of the gastroenterologist has been modified greatly over the past 2 decades, and continues to be shaped by the knowledge, skill, and opportunity to capitalize on the unique position that gastroenterologists hold in the patient care continuum. The gastroenterologist is evolving from a "pure" diagnostician to an endoscopic surgeon, a geneticist, a nutritionist, an immunologist and chemotherapist, and palliative care physician.
