The accumulation of mutations is the primary generator of hereditary diseases as well as ostensibly much of the symptomatology of aging. Various methods for the therapeutic repair of mutations have been devised, but most have focused on the repair of known hereditary diseases of fixed location, with none having demonstrated reliable capacity to repair long segments of mutated DNA of unknown content, the likes of which arise in various loci as a result of natural aging, in adult mammals. This thesis attempts to address this by devising a gene editor capable of repairing multibase randomly-mutated segments, combined with a vehicle that can be used to deliver said gene editor to as many long-lived human cells in vivo as possible. The gene editor was designed successfully and tested with a fluorescent reporter cell line, but functional editing could not be observed in initial experiments. Reasons for this result are considered in the Discussion section.
Some claim that especially in the field of agile software development the research lags years behind of the practice. In this paper, we characterize the status and main challenges for research on agile software development, and propose a preliminary roadmap, focusing on providing more empirical research, primarily on e...

Agile methods continue to gain popularity. In particular, the Scrum method appears to be on the verge of becoming a de-facto standard in the industry, leading the so called Agile movement. While there are success stories and recommendations, there is little scientifically valid evidence of the challenges in the adoptio...
