"To distinguish between self and nonself is a fundamental requirement of life. All systems of self/nonself discrimination also require mechanisms to maintain quality control. I propose that the strategies of quality control for the evolutionarily recent (and more sophisticated) systems for self/nonself discrimination, such as those employed in the adaptive immune system of higher vertebrates, may have evolved from ancient systems of self/nonself discrimination."
Thomas Boehm (*1956) ist Direktor des Max-Planck-Instituts für Immunbiologie in Freiburg im Breisgau. Für seine Forschungen am Deutschen Krebsforschungszentrum in Heidelberg erhielt er 1997 den Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Preis der DFG.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
