RESUMO
The study of small RNAs is a field that is expanding quickly. Other functional short RNA molecules other than microRNAs, and gene expression regulators, have been found in animals and plants. MicroRNAs play a significant role in host-microbe interactions, and parasite microRNAs may affect the host's innate immunity. Furthermore, short RNAs are intriguing non-invasive biomarker possibilities because they can be found in physiological fluids. These trends suggest that for many researchers, quick and simple techniques for expression profiling and subsequent downstream analysis of miRNA-seq data are crucial. We selected sRNAtoolbox to make integrated sRNA research easier. Each tool can be used separately or to explore and analyze sRNAbench results in further depth. A special focus was placed on the tools' usability. We review available miRNA research tools to have an overview of the evaluation of the tools. Mainly we evaluate the tool sRNAtoolbox.

A follow-up study of the 44 recipients of American Cancer Society, Inc., Special Postdoctoral Research Fellowship from 1962 to 1973 revealed that 11 of 21 M.D. candidates obtained their second (Ph.D.) degree at the end of training. By contrast, all but one among the 23 Ph.D. candidates were awarded the second (M.D.) degree. A great majority of either group remain in active research, regardless of whether or not they obtained the second degree. A very high percentage of their research is cancer related.
