Structure–function relationships in peptoids: Recent advances toward deciphering the structural requirements for biological function

Gene function in schistosomes: recent advances toward a cure

Citation: Jurberg AD and Brindley PJ (2015) Gene function in schistosomes: recent advances toward a cure. Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) drive poverty and social inequality; indeed NTDs are manifestations of these problems (Bardosh, 2014). Poverty is a major detriment to human development. Measuring poverty by estimating poverty lines has led the World Bank to initially set the income value...

Recent advances in biological imaging.

Recent innovations in microscopy and digital image processing have greatly enhanced the power of biological imaging. Basic principles of several new methods in light and electron microscopy will be discussed, and examples presented of their application to cell and molecular biology.

Recent Advances in Structural Optimization

In this paper we present the main directions of research in Structural Convex Optimization. In this field, we use additional information on the structure of specific problem instances for accelerating standard Black-Box methods. We show that the proper use of problem structure can provably accelerate these methods by the order of magnitudes. As examples, we consider polynomialtime interior-poin...

Recent Advances in Hemophilia Gene Therapy

Heterogeneous loss of function mutations at F8 and F9 genes causes X-linked recessive bleeding disorders, hemophilia A (HA) and hemophilia B (HB), respectively. HA is clinically indistinguishable from HB and accounts for more than 80% of hemophilia cases; the former affects 1/5000 and the latter 1/25000 male births worldwide. In Iran, it is estimated that around 4300 HA and 900 HB patients are ...
