Statement Let s be a complex number with s ≠ -1 and Re(s) > −2. Then Here Γ is the Gamma function and ζ is the Riemann zeta funct...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microtrabeculae
In cell biology, microtrabeculae were a hypothesised fourth element of the cytoskeleton (the other three being microfilaments, microtubules and intermediate filaments), proposed by Keith Porter based on images obtained from high-voltage electron microscopy of whole cells in the 1970s. The images showed short, filamento...

In geometry, a pinch point or cuspidal point is a type of singular point on an algebraic surface. The equation for the surface near a pinch point may be put in the form where [4] denotes terms of degree 4 or more and is not a square in the ring of functions. For example the surface near the point , meaning in coor...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rs5569
In genetics, rs5569 (A1287G or G1287A) is a genetic variant. It is a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the SLC6A2 gene in exon 9. This gene codes the norepinephrine transporter. The SNP is a silent substitution and the nucleotides of both variants code a threonine amino acid. Several research studies have examin...
