Response to Comments on "Soybean photosynthesis and crop yield is improved by accelerating recovery from photoprotection"

We recently demonstrated that accelerating the relaxation of nonphotochemical quenching leads to higher soybean photosynthetic efficiency and yield. In response, Sinclair et al. assert that improved photosynthesis cannot improve crop yields and that there is only one valid experimental design for proving a genetic improvement in yield. We explain here why neither assertion is valid.

Pharmaceutical services for the cancer patient

Pharmaceutical services for cancer patients in a hospital-tumor institute are described. The duties of the pharmacists discussed are: (1) providing necessary medication including the preparation of chemotherapeutic agents for administration and (2) providing drug information for the oncology specialist, the private physician, the nurse and the patient. As part of the information service, discharged patients and clinic patients are given brief monographs on the chemotherapeutic drugs included in their treatment. Pharmacists attend ward rounds regularly with four different medical services.
