The apical complex is the definitive cell structure of phylum Apicomplexa, and is the focus of the events of host cell penetration and the establishment of intracellular parasitism.Despite the importance of this structure, its molecular composition is relatively poorly known and few studies have experimentally tested its functions.We have character
Background: Despite its elimination in the early 1950s, about 1700 cases of malaria are reported in the US every year.Few studies have quantified the direct and indirect costs of imported malaria in the US.Methods: Disparities in the mean and total hospital days, hospital charges, and hospital costs for malaria-related hospitalizations in the US by
A novel technique is proposed for estimating the angle-of-arrival (AOA) in Glucose Supplement free-space laser communication based on the shape of a laser beam spot on a flat surface.Two methods are introduced: one where ellipses are fitted to the intensity contour of the beam spot, and another where a least-squares fit of an AOA-dependent two-dime
This paper reviews prior applications of co-production principles and their potential impact on the mental health and wellbeing of care leavers.There is minimal research available on care leaver narratives of Window Hardware their experiences and consequent mental health and wellbeing needs.This paper explores the relevance of different, sometimes
On the basis of the "zygonic" theory of LIP SHINE WHISPER musical understanding (Ockelford, 2006), Grundy and Ockelford (2014) investigated musical expectations evoked during the course of hearing a piece for the first time in a prodigious musical savant (Derek Paravicini).Overall, the results provided by Derek support the principles of the zygonic
