A novel function for Myc: inhibition of C/EBP-dependent gene activation.

abstract：:This work argues that, in a polarized environment, scientists can minimize the likelihood that the audience's biased processing will lead to rejection of their message if they not only eschew advocacy but also, convey that they are sharers of knowledge faithful to science's way of knowing and respectful of the audienc...
