Creating ecologically sound buildings by integrating ecology, architecture and computational design
People and Nature, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 4-20, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Research is revealing an increasing number of positive effects of nature for humans. At the same time, biodiversity in cities, where most humans live, is often low or in decline. Tangible solutions are needed to increase urban biodiversity. Architecture is a key discipline that has considerable influence on the built‐up area of cities, thereby

Effects of ancient Egypt hypostyle halls on the thermal environment
JAPAN ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 331-343, July 2022., 2022 The Hypostye Hall in ancient Egyptian temples is a system that uses heat capacity to stabilize the thermal environment, similar to the modern Thermo Active Building System (TABS). Using the Great Temple of Amun at Karnak as an example, the value of Hypostyle Hall will be evaluated using physical simulations in this study.

Whole genome sequencing identifies rare genetic variants in familial pancreatic cancer patients
Annals of Human Genetics, Volume 86, Issue 4, Page 195-206, July 2022., 2022 Abstract Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) represents one of the most lethal malignancies with very high mortality and short survival time. About 5–10% of the PDAC patients have a familial predisposition to the disease designated as familial pancreatic cancer (FPC), suggesting genetic modulation of FPC pathogenesis. It is estimated that currently
