Dengue is a public health problem in the tropics and subtropics. There are several vaccine candidates in clinical development. However, there may be gaps in the new vaccine introduction after vaccine licensure before it becomes available in developing countries. In anticipation of the first dengue vaccine candidate to be licensed, Dengue Vaccine Initiative (DVI) and, its predecessor, Pediatric ...

element may account for other, quite separate phenomena. In the case at hand, Harris identifies this boundary element withone that would be posited in compound nouns, such as night-rate (whose pronunciation is quite different from that of nitrate); the allophones of the final sound of night in night-rate are quite different from the single phone possible in nitrate, and this difference can be d...

INTRODUCTION: Hydrilla verticillata L.f. Royle (hydrilla; Hydrocharitaceae), an invasive submersed plant native to Southeast Asia and Australia, was first introduced into the US through the aquarium trade in Florida in the 1950s (Schmitz et al. 1991). Hydrilla impacts freshwater resources in the US by its aggressive, canopy-forming growth that degrades aquatic ecosystems, limits recreation, fou...

I.1. Physical motivation. From [St]: consider a function T (x) as representing the value of a physical variable at a particular point x in space. Is this a realistic thing to do? What can you measure? Suppose T (x) represents temperature at a point x in a room. You can measure the temperature with a thermometer, placing the bulb at the point x. Unlike the point, the bulb has nonzero size, so wh...
