Toxoplasma gondii, the most common parasitic infection of human brain and eye, persists across lifetimes, can progressively damage sight, and is currently incurable. New, curative medicines are needed urgently. Herein, we develop novel models to facilitate drug development: EGS strain T. gondii forms cysts in vitro that induce oocysts in...
Lifestyle factors are responsible for a considerable portion of cancer incidence worldwide, but credible estimates from the World Health Organization and the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) suggest that the fraction of cancers attributable to toxic environmental exposures is between 7% and 19%. To explore the hypothesis that...
A recently developed statistical model for first-order scattered fields is used to predict
the normalized covariance function of an underwater acoustic signal backscattered by a
hypothetical school of fish. The fish school is configured as an oblate spheroid with the
individual fish Poisson distributed within the school.
Empirical covariance functions...
