Does Roush show that evidence should be probable?

This paper critically analyzes Sherrilyn Roush’s (2005) definition of evidence and especially her powerful defence that in the ideal, a claim should be probable to be evidence for anything. We suggest that Roush treats not one sense of ‘evidence’ but three: relevance, leveraging and grounds for knowledge; and that different parts of her argument fare differently with respect to different senses...

Staphylococcus lugdunensis; a pathogen that should be considered in Iran

Background: Staphylococcus lugdunensis is Gram-positive cocci of the staphylococcaceae family. S. lugdunensis despite having a clotting factor (wall coagulase), was classified in the coagulase negative staphylococcus group (CoNS) for lack of free coagulase. Although this bacterium is part of the human normal flora, in terms of virulence, S. lugdunensis is in second place after S. aureus. S. lug...

Daes That Should Not Be Solved

The closing decades of the 20th century have seen many scientists recognize that their mathematical models are in fact instances of DAEs, or of ODEs with invariants. Such a recognition has often carried with it the beneet of aaording a new, sometimes revealing, computational look at the old problem. But one must not conclude that reformulating a mathematical model as a DAE is always a good idea...
