متن کامل'Dying twice': a multi-level model of the roots of AIDS stigma in two South African communities.
We highlight the complex interplay of psychological and social factors driving AIDS stigma, drawing on a study of community responses to HIV/AIDS in two communities in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.

Drivers of stigma included fear; the availability and...

Hoffmann et al. now demonstrate on page 133 that N. meningitidis activates two distinct signaling pathways in host cells to cause actin cytoskeleton reorganizatio...
متن کاملTwice Differentiable Spectral Functions

Spectral functions are just symmetric functions of the eigenvalues. We show that a spectral function is twice (continuously) differentiable at a matrix if and only if the corresponding symmetric function is twice (continuously) differentiable at the vector of eige...
