I'll Bet You Think This Blame Is About You [PDF]
There seems to be widespread agreement that to be responsible for something is to be deserving of certain consequences on account of that thing. Call this the “merited-consequences” conception of responsibility. I think there is something off, or askew,

CrossHybDetector: detection of cross-hybridization events in DNA microarray experiments
Background DNA microarrays contain thousands of different probe sequences represented on their surface. These are designed in such a way that potential cross-hybridization reactions with non-target sequences are minimized. However, given the large number

Traditional versus reverse syphilis algorithms: A comparison at a large academic medical center
Objectives: An increasing number of institutions are transitioning from the traditional syphilis testing algorithm (initial screening with nontreponemal tests) to the ‘reverse’ algorithm (initial screening with treponemal tests such as syphilis IgG). The
