BACKGROUND: Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a widespread zoonosis and a significant economic concern and cause of morbidity in humans. A scarcity of education on the sources of CE infection and containment measures is considered...
Hierarchical models of pain
Computational models of pain consider how the brain processes nociceptive information and allow mapping neural circuits and networks to cognition and behaviour. To date, they have generally have assumed two largely independent...

Computational and neural mechanisms of statistical pain learning.
Pain invariably changes over time. These fluctuations contain statistical regularities which, in theory, could be learned by the brain to generate expectations and control responses. We demonstrate that humans learn to extract...
The Origins of Peter’s Pence*
Abstract
Peter’s Pence began as an annual donation from England to the papacy. It was later taken up more widely and lasted until the Reformation in England, but its beginnings are...
A Review of Evidence on the Role of Digital Technology in Shaping Attention and Cognitive Control in Children.
The role of digital technology in shaping attention and cognitive development has been at the centre of public discourse for decades. The current review presents findings from three main bodies of literature on the implications...

Obsessive-compulsive disorder in adults with high-functioning autism spectrum disorder
Background: Little is known about the symptom profile of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in individuals who have autism spectrum disorders (ASD). It is also unknown whether self-report questionnaires are useful in measuring...
Cryo-EM structure of the full-length Lon protease from Thermus thermophilus.
In bacteria, Lon is a large hexameric ATP-dependent protease that targets misfolded and also folded substrates, some of which are involved in cell division and survival of cellular stress. The N-terminal domain of Lon...

Biorelevant release testing of biodegradable microspheres intended for intra-articular administration
Characterization of controlled release formulations used for intra-articular (IA) drug administration is challenging. Bio-relevant synovial fluids (BSF), containing physiologically relevant amounts of hyaluronic acid...
Compensation in autism is not consistent with social motivation theory
Growing evidence, as presented by Jaswal & Akhtar, indicates that social motivation is not universally reduced in autism. Here, we evaluate and extend this argument in light of recent evidence of “compensation” in autism. We...
Crowd-shipping with time windows and transshipment nodes
Crowd-shipping is a delivery policy in which, in addition to standard vehicle routing practices, ordinary people accept to deviate from their route to deliver items to other people, for a small compensation. In this paper we...
