Most researchers acknowledge an intrinsic hierarchy in the scholarly journals ('journal rank') that they submit their work to, and adjust not only their submission but also their reading strategies accordingly. On the other...
Schwann cell remyelination of the central nervous system
Myelin sheaths, by supporting axonal integrity and allowing rapid saltatory impulse conduction, are of fundamental importance for neuronal function. In response to demyelinating injuries in the central nervous system (CNS)...

Following our discovery of a fragment from the repeat domain of tau protein as a structural constituent of the PHF-core in Alzheimer's disease (AD), we developed an assay that captured several key features of the aggregation...
Epistatic interactions can moderate the antigenic effect of substitutions in haemagglutinin of influenza H3N2 virus.

Microbiota has been associated with autoimmune diseases, with nasal Staphylococcus aureus being implicated in the pathogenesis of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV). Little is known about the role...
How robust is your project? from local failures to global catastrophes
Current societal requirements necessitate the effective delivery of complex projects that can do more while using less. Yet, recent large-scale project failures suggest that our ability to successfully deliver them is still...
The Hubble Tension Revisited
Abstract
In a recent paper, we investigated possible systematic uncertainties related to the Cepheid color–luminosity calibration method and their influence on the tension between...

Active Image-Assisted Food Records in Comparison to Regular Food Records
Overreporting of dietary intake in infants is a problem when using food records (FR), distorting possible relationships between diet and health outcomes. Image-assisted dietary assessment may improve the accuracy, but to date...
