From supramolecular vanadate receptors to enzyme models of vanadium Haloperoxidase [PDF]
, 2005 V-HPOs are enzymes catalyzing the halogenation of a variety of organic substrates using hydrogen peroxide and halide ions at slightly acidic condition[1-3]. The X-ray structure of V-HPO from Curvularia inaequalis[4, 5] reveals that the positively charged

Advancing pharmacometrics in Africa—Transition from capacity development toward job creation
CPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, Volume 14, Issue 3, Page 407-419, March 2025.Abstract Trained pharmacometricians remain scarce in Africa due to limited training opportunities, lack of a pharmaceutical product development ecosystem, and emigration to high‐income countries. The Applied Pharmacometrics Training (APT) fellowship program was established to address these gaps and specifically foster job creation for talent retention.
