Carrying Capacity of a Population Diffusing in a Heterogeneous Environment
Mathematics, 2020 The carrying capacity of the environment for a population is one of the key concepts in ecology and it is incorporated in the growth term of reaction-diffusion equations describing populations in space.

Prognostic implications of physiologic and radiographic changes in idiopathic interstitial pneumonia [PDF]
, 2003 Idiopathic interstitial pneumonias are a diverse group of lung diseases with varied prognoses. We hypothesized that changes in physiologic and radiographic parameters would predict survival.
