When germs travel
However, beginning in February 2003, three HIV positive men sought medical help at an STD clinic in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, because of symptoms of a possible infection. These three men helped researchers contact other men (with whom they had previously had sex). In an average year, the Netherlands usually has only a handful of cases of LGV, so as the size of the outbreak became clear, these...
متن کاملMicroscopic Travel Time Analysis of Bottleneck Experiments
This contribution provides a microscopic experimental study of pedestrian motion in front of the bottleneck. Identification of individual pedestrians in conducted experiments enables to explain the high variance of travel time by heterogeneity of the crowd. Some pedestrians are able to push effectively through the crowd, some get trapped in the crowd for significantly longer time. This ability ...
متن کاملWhen Experiments Travel: Clinical Trials and the Global Search for Human Subjects Adriana Petryna, Princeton University Press, 2009
Adriana Petryna’s second book, When Experiments Travel, is a timely addition to the understanding of offshore clinical trials. Employing an anthropological perspective the book explores the organisational settings that enable these trials, the complex networks of interests they maintain and in which they unfold, and the ethical and legal tensions present within these settings. Continuing the in...
متن کاملBiofilm Dispersal : Deciding When It ’ s Better to Travel 1
10 Bacteria live predominantly in biofilms, and the internal signal cyclic diguanylate (c-di-GMP) is an universal signal that governs the formation and the dispersal of these communities. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most important reference systems for studying bacterial biofilms and contains numerous diguanylate cyclases (DGCs) for synthesizing c-di-GMP and phosphodiesterases (PDEs) f...
متن کاملThe Cost of Simplifying Air Travel When Modeling Disease Spread
BACKGROUND Air travel plays a key role in the spread of many pathogens. Modeling the long distance spread of infectious disease in these cases requires an air travel model. Highly detailed air transportation models can be over determined and computationally problematic. We compared the predictions of a simplified air transport model with those of a model of all routes and assessed the impact of...
