Modeling, dynamics and optimal control of Ebola virus spread [PDF]
We present a mathematical analysis of the early detection of Ebola virus. The propagation of the virus is analysed by using a Susceptible, Infected, Recovered (SIR) model. In order to provide useful predictions about the potential transmission of the virus, we analyse and simulate the SIR model with vital dynamics, by adding demographic effects and an ...

Discounted Deaths: The Eruption of COVID‐19 in the Geriatric System of the Community of Madrid
Abstract In this article, we explore a new category of analysis that we have called “discounted deaths,” with which we seek to examine forms of dying occurring outside the scope of the triple meaning of the term “to count”—i.e., deaths that did not count, deaths that were not counted, and deaths for which there was no account.

Ultrasensitive Ebola Virus Antigen Sensing via 3D Nanoantenna Arrays
Sensitive detection of pathogens is crucial for early disease diagnosis and quarantine, which is of tremendous need in controlling severe and fatal illness epidemics such as of Ebola virus (EBOV) disease. Serology assays can detect EBOV‐specific antigens

Mapping protein–protein interactions by mass spectrometry
Abstract Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) are essential for numerous biological activities, including signal transduction, transcription control, and metabolism. They play a pivotal role in the organization and function of the proteome, and their perturbation is associated with various diseases, such as cancer, neurodegeneration, and infectious ...
