A Physician’s Encounter with Epidemics: Courage vis-á-vis Ignorance

Proactive Translatology vis a vis Advertising Messages

Much good work on Translation Studies (TS) has concentrated on the verbal text. Nevertheless, in our post-modern world, multi-modality is exploited to the maximum, as advertising shows. In turn, hyper-textuality is also a common feature of today’s advertising messages. Furthermore, both multi-modality and hyper-textuality are ideologically designed not only to sell products but to promote entir...

HEP , vis - a - vis Lattice QCD

I review in this presentation some aspects of phenomenology in High Energy Physics which are related to recent and possibly future progress in lattice QCD. In particular, I cover (i) the extraction of CKM matrix elements from B physics, (ii) the determination of ǫ ′ /ǫ , as well as (iii) some issues emerged in the physics of high energy jets produced in hadronic collisions, where input from non...

Understanding Relevance Vis-a-Vis Internal Transfer

Subcellular localisation of Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) capsid subunit VP1 vis-á-vis host protein Hsp90.

The VP1 subunit of the picornavirus capsid is the major antigenic determinant and mediates host cell attachment and virus entry. To investigate the localisation of Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) VP1 during infection, a bioinformatics approach was used to predict a surface-exposed, linear epitope region of the protein for subsequent expression and purification. This region, comp...

Ultimate Truth vis-à-vis stable Truth

We show that the set of ultimately true sentences in Hartry Field’s Revenge-immune solution model to the semantic paradoxes is recursively isomorphic to the set of stably true sentences obtained in Hans Herzberger’s revision sequence starting from the null hypothesis. We further remark that this shows that a substantial subsystem of second order number theory is needed to establish the semantic...
