Sunlight Effects on Immune System: Is There Something Else in addition to UV-Induced Immunosuppression?

Sunlight, composed of different types of radiation, including ultraviolet wavelengths, is an essential source of light and warmth for life on earth but has strong negative effects on human health, such as promoting the malignant transformation of skin cells and suppressing the ability of the human immune system to efficiently detect and attack malignant cells. UV-induced immunosuppression has b...

Interleukin-6 as a biomarker for asthma: hype or is there something else?

Much of precision medicine research today seeks to find a biomarker, or like King Richard, our kingdom might be lost. The hope is that if one is successful in identifying such a biomarker [1], all will be resolved: diagnosis, prognosis and the best treatment regime identified from the morass of treatment options available. In this context, the research for a single, do-all biomarker is a truly ...

Declarativeness: the work done by something else

Being declarative means that we do computer programming on higher levels of abstraction. This vague definition identifies declarativeness with the act of ignoring details, but it is a special case of abstraction. The unspecified part is some computational work. Automating computations and offloading mental processing are essentially the same concept, which is fundamental for both computational ...
