CI Katsos
Jan 24, 2017
The relation of philosophy to theology is notoriously ambiguous. Reading Philo of Alexandria is a case in point. Understanding the dynamics of philosophy and theology in the Philonic corpus is a key to understanding Philo's...
Knowledge of cervical cancer risk factors and symptoms among women in a refugee settlement

Abstract: Background: There are limited data on awareness of cervical cancer risk factors and symptoms among refugee populations living in Uganda. In this study, we sought to determine the awareness and knowledge of cervical...
Signatures of Introgression across the Allele Frequency Spectrum.
The detection of introgression from genomic data is transforming our view of species and the origins of adaptive variation. Among the most widely used approaches to detect introgression is the so-called ABBA-BABA test or...
Correlated and geographically predictable Neanderthal and Denisovan legacies are difficult to reconcile with a simple model based on inter-breeding.

Although the presence of archaic hominin legacies in humans is taken for granted, little attention has been given as to how the data fit with how humans colonized the world. Here, I show that Neanderthal and Denisovan legacies...
Flanking heterozygosity influences the relative probability of different base substitutions in humans.

Understanding when, where and which mutations are mostly likely to occur impacts many areas of evolutionary biology, from genetic diseases to phylogenetic reconstruction. Africans and non-African humans differ in the mutability...
Safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of influenza vaccination with a high-density microarray patch
Angus H Forster, Katey Witham, Alexandra CI Depelsenaire, Margaret Veitch, James W Wells, Adam Wheatley, Melinda Pryor, Jason D Lickliter, Barbara Francis, Steve Rockman, Jesse Bodle, Peter Treasure, Julian Hickling, Germain JP Fernando

Classification of symmetry-protected topological many-body localized phases in one dimension.
We provide a classification of symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases of many-body localized (MBL) spin and fermionic systems in one dimension. For spin systems, using tensor networks we show that all eigenstates of these...
The politics and fantasy of the gambling education discourse
BACKGROUND: The provision of commercialised gambling products and services has changed radically in recent decades. Gambling is now provided in many places by multi-national corporations, with important implications for public...
Dark Nudges and Sludge in Big Alcohol
Policy Points Nudges steer people toward certain options but also allow them to go their own way. ?Dark nudges? aim to change consumer behavior against their best interests. ?Sludge? uses cognitive biases to make behavior change...

Resistance to Targeted Agents Used to Treat Paediatric ALK-Positive ALCL.
Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is the third most common malignancy diagnosed in children. The vast majority of paediatric NHL are either Burkitt lymphoma (BL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), anaplastic large cell lymphoma...

Global demographic history of human populations inferred from whole mitochondrial genomes.
The Neolithic transition has led to marked increases in census population sizes across the world, as recorded by a rich archaeological record. However, previous attempts to detect such changes using genetic markers, especially...
Cranioplasty Following Decompressive Craniectomy

Feb 12, 2020
Cranioplasty (CP) after decompressive craniectomy (DC) for trauma is a neurosurgical procedure that aims to restore esthesis, improve cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics, and provide cerebral protection. In turn, this can...

Spin Purification in Full-CI Quantum Monte Carlo via a First-Order Penalty Approach.
In this article, we demonstrate that a first-order spin penalty scheme can be efficiently applied to the Slater determinant based Full-CI Quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) algorithm, as a practical route toward spin purification. Two...
Prevention of radiotherapy-induced neurocognitive dysfunction in survivors of paediatric brain tumours
Neurocognitive dysfunction is the leading cause of reduced quality of life in long-term survivors of paediatric brain tumours. Radiotherapy is one of the main contributors to neurocognitive sequelae. Current approaches for...
The red edge excitation shift phenomenon can be used to unmask protein structural ensembles
To understand complex molecular interactions it is necessary to account for molecular flexibility and the available equilibrium of conformational states. Only a small number of experimental approaches can access such...
