to integrate the R2P principle in the EU’s development assistance; to further professionalise and strengthen the Union’s preventive diplomacy, mediation, crisis prevention and response capacities, with special reference to information gathering and exchange as well as early warning systems; to improve the coordination between the various Commission, Council and EEAS structures regarding all aspects of R2P, and to inform Parliament on a regular basis of the initiatives taken in support of R2P;

Work on human fever reaction and development of test systems for fever mediator molecules, combined with improved cell biology techniques, now enables the innovative use of human cells as biosensors for pyrogens (fever-causing agents).

According to another report, issued by the transport research laboratory in Britain three months ago, talking on a cellular phone while driving can slow reaction and stopping times more than the effects of alcohol.

New studies of the effects of chronic, low dose-rate exposures using the whole organism which measure the new delayed effects of radiation such as radiation-induced genomic instability (the appearance of mutations, chromosome aberrations, etc. in cell generations long after the initial radiation insult to the parent cell genome) and bystander effects (responses in the un-irradiated neighbours of irradiated cells. These should be done in conditions which approach the natural situation as closely as possible), for example in areas of high natural background, in low background facilities and in the ...[+++]areas contaminated by accidental releases.

These extracellular single neuron recordings have found that cannabinoids can produce profound suppression of cellular pain-related responses with no suppression of neurons that respond to other things such as touch.

It is a down modulator, a modifier of cellular response, which often diminishes the response that cell has normally to other chemicals.
