In this paper we carried out a diachronic analysis (1840-2009) of a corpus of 180 medical case report titles drawn from the British Medical Journal. We analyzed a series of quantitative variables (number of authors and their institutional affiliation, title length, and punctuation/ grammatical data) and qualitative variables (authors’ collaboration and types of titles). The results of our resea...

A Tribute to José María (“Chema”) Cantú

José María ("Chema") Cantú (1938-2007), born in Mexico, was a pioneering, loved and respected leader in medical and human genetics and bioethics in Latin America. He graduated as a physician in Mexico and then trained in medical and human genetics in France and the United States. He was instrumental in developing a first-rate research, training and genetic services program in medical and human ...

Adaptive Neuromorphic Architecture (ANA)

We designed Adaptive Neuromorphic Architecture (ANA) that self-adjusts its inherent parameters (for instance, the resonant frequency) naturally following the stimuli frequency. Such an architecture is required for brain-like engineered systems because some parameters of the stimuli (for instance, the stimuli frequency) are not known in advance. Such adaptivity comes from a circuit element with ...

raditional radiation therapy (RT) typically delivers radiation to a wide target field within the body resulting in the treatment of both the tumor and a significant volume of surrounding healthy tissue. This technology is ideal for tumors that invade the surrounding tissue and when tumor margins are not well defined. In an effort to protect the healthy tissue, traditional RT is delivered in sma...
