Editorial: Avoidance: From Basic Science to Psychopathology

As a means of coping, avoidance encompasses thoughts and efforts toward prevention of future aversive experiences and events. Avoidance has been and remains controversial. Avoidance is accepted as a construct in many areas of research, but is roundly disdained in others. Why is such a critical feature of coping both acknowledged as such, but almost reluctantly studied? For one, avoidance is oft...

INVESTIGATION ON SLAG-REFRACTORY INTERACTION IN LADLE USING COMPUTATIONAL TECHNIQUES

Abstract: Thermodynamic computational packages MTDATA and FactSage have been used to carry out calculations on the variation with temperature of the phases precipitated on cooling in both oxidising and reducing conditions of a typical ladle slag composition, in the temperature range 1700 - 900°C. The current coverage of the databases associated with the computational packages is discussed i...

Guest Editorial: Computational Solutions to Large-Scale Data Management and Analysis in Translational and Personalized Medicine

M EDICINE is undergoing a revolution that is transforming the nature of healthcare from reactive to preventive. The changes are catalyzed by a new systems approach to disease that focuses on integrated diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disease in individuals. This is expected to replace our current mode of medicine over the coming years with a personalized and predictive treatment. While ...

Editorial Protecting Our Science

On 6 June 2013, a court in New York City handed down a decision that calls into question the validity of research that was sponsored by Georgia Pacific (GP) Corporation (In re New York City Asbestos Litigation) and published in eight peer-reviewed articles, including two papers published in the Annals of Occupational Hygiene (Sheehan et al., 2011; Berman et al., 2012). While the court did not d...
