Despite the public health importance of mucosal pathogens (including HIV), relatively little is known about mucosal immunity, particularly at the female genital tract (FGT). Because heterosexual transmission now represents the dominant mechanism of HIV transmission, and given the continual spread of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), it is critical to understand the interplay between host ...

This note advances a family of poverty measures, Πα, which are derived as simple, normalized Minkowski distance functions. The Πα indices turn out to be the αth roots of the corresponding Foster, Greer and Thorbecke Pα indices. The re-calibration of Pα in terms of Πα could have certain possible advantages, which are reviewed in the note. While the Πα indices are not decomposable in the ordinari...

Three-dimensional van der Waals ferromagnet Fe 3 GeTe 2 (FGT) is regarded as a candidate for the magnetic topological nodal line semimetal. We investigate lateral electron transport between two ?m spaced superconducting In leads beneath thick three-dimensional FGT exfoliated flake. At low temperature of 30 mK, we observe Josephson supercurrent that exhibits unusual critical current I c suppress...
