Mar 31, 2020
Room temperature sodium-sulfur batteries have been considered to be potential candidates for future energy storage devices because of their low cost, abundance, and high performance. The sluggish sulfur reaction and the "shuttle...
A Principled Account of AMR Global Governance Solidarity, Subsidiarity, and Stewardship.
Thana C de Campos-Rudinsky
Mar 27, 2023
This commentary defines what shared yet differentiated ethical responsibilities to tackle antimicrobial resistance (AMR) mean, by introducing a threefold principled account of AMR global governance. It argues that the principles...
Steganalysis of AMR Based on Statistical Features of Pitch Delay
The calibrated matrix of the second-order difference of the pitch delay (C-MSDPD) feature has been proven to be effective in detecting steganography based on pitch delay. In this article, a new steganalysis scheme based on...

Exploiting genomics to mitigate the public health impact of antimicrobial resistance.
Claire Waddington, Megan E Carey, Christine J Boinett, Ellen Higginson, Balaji Veeraraghavan, Stephen Baker
Feb 16, 2022
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major global public health threat, which has been largely driven by the excessive use of antimicrobials. Control measures are urgently needed to slow the trajectory of AMR but are hampered by...
Antimicrobial resistance in human populations
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global public health threat. Emergence of AMR occurs naturally, but can also be selected for by antimicrobial exposure in clinical and veterinary medicine. Despite growing worldwide attention...
The effect of conducting boundaries on Lapwood-Prats convection
We investigate the onset of convection in a uniform, constant-thickness, horizontal porous layer which is heated from below. The layer is bounded above and below by thermally conducting but impermeable layers. Our aim is to...
Self-assembled lipoplexes of short interfering RNA (siRNA) using spermine-based fatty acid amide guanidines
Four guanidine derivatives of N4,N9-diacylated spermine have been designed, synthesized, and characterized. These guanidine-containing cationic lipids bound siRNA and formed nanoparticles. Two cationic lipids with C18...
A Method Based on a New Word Embedding Approach for Process Model Matching
This paper proposes a method based on a new word embedding approach for matching business process model. The proposed method aligns two process models in four steps. First activity labels are extracted and pre-processed to...

A comparative study of interface-conforming ALE-FE scheme and diffuse interface AMR-LB scheme for interfacial dynamics
In this work, a comparative study for two simulation methods is conducted for interfacial flows in two dimensions: an arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) finite element method (FEM) on interface-conforming meshes and a phase...
Genomic surveillance for hypervirulence and multi-drug resistance in invasive Klebsiella pneumoniae from South and Southeast Asia
Kelly L. Wyres, To N. T. Nguyen, Margaret M. C. Lam, Louise M. Judd, Nguyen Van Vinh Chau, David A. B. Dance, Margaret Ip, Abhilasha Karkey, Clare L. Ling, Thyl Miliya, Paul N.
