BACKGROUND The number of medical undergraduates taking part in Student Scientific Activities (SSA) at Jessenius Faculty of Medicine Comenius University in Slovakia remains low. The aim of this study was to discover some of the factors responsible and suggest improvements. METHODS An anonymous 30-item questionnaire was devised and sent to 245 medical undergraduates (UG) of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd an...

Although the rise in subprime lending and the ensuing wave of foreclosures was partly a result of market forces that have been well-identified in the literature, in the United States it was also a highly racialized process. We argue that residential segregation created a unique niche of poor minority clients who were differentially marketed risky subprime loans that were in great demand for use...

Front Cover: A novel conceptual material and design of magneto-responsive shape-memory polyurethane (SMP) foam composites with excellent stability reversibility is introduced by Mohammadreza Lalegani Dezaki Mahdi Bodaghi in article 2200490. They are lightweight, stable, shape-recoverable, soft, programmable expected to be game changer the soft robotics field.

We present a modular method for schedulability analysis of real time distributed systems. We extend the actor model, as the asynchronous model for concurrent objects, with real time using timed automata, and show how actors can be analyzed individually to make sure that no task misses its deadline. We introduce drivers to specify how an actor can be safely used. Using these drivers we can verif...

Human leukocyte antigen system is the major histocompatibility complex in humans, which includes several hundreds of genes located in a highly polymorphic region of chromosome 6 that encode for proteins critical for the immune system. HLA Class I antigens (A, B and C) transport and present peptides produced by degradation of proteins inside the cell like viral antigens, to CD8+ T cells, in addi...
