A test problem for visual investigation of high-dimensional multi-objective search [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
An inherent problem in multiobjective optimization is that the visual observation of solution vectors with four or more objectives is infeasible, which brings major difficulties for algorithmic design, examination, and development.

Use of herpes virus amplicon vectors to study brain disorders

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2005
There is an enormous initiative to establish the genetic basis for disorders of brain function. Unfortunately, genetic intervention is not accomplished easily in the nervous system.

Delivering genes with human immunodeficiency virus-derived vehicles: still state-of-the-art after 25 years

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science, 2022
Viruses are naturally endowed with the capacity to transfer genetic material between cells. Following early skepticism, engineered viruses have been used to transfer genetic information into thousands of patients, and genetic therapies are currently ...

Vector-based genetically modified vaccines: Exploiting Jenner’s legacy

open access: yesVaccine, 2016
The global vaccine market is diverse while facing a plethora of novel developments. Genetic modification (GM) techniques facilitate the design of 'smarter' vaccines. For many of the major infectious diseases of humans, like AIDS and malaria, but also for most human neoplastic disorders, still no vaccines are available.

Geminiviruses and their application in biotechnology

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2017
Being a major class of single-stranded DNA viruses, geminiviruses are mostly studied due to their catastrophic infectious effect on crops. These DNA viruses are characteristic for their ability in quickly multiplying viral genetic materials without ...

Genetic Manipulation of Ticks: A Paradigm Shift in Tick and Tick-Borne Diseases Research

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Ticks are obligate hematophagous arthropods that are distributed worldwide and are one of the most important vectors of pathogens affecting humans and animals.

A method for generating realistic correlation matrices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Simulating sample correlation matrices is important in many areas of statistics. Approaches such as generating Gaussian data and finding their sample correlation matrix or generating random uniform $[-1,1]$ deviates as pairwise correlations both have ...

System of centromeric, episomal, and integrative vectors based on drug resistance markers for Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2006
Integrative, centromeric, and episomal plasmids are essential for easy, fast, and reliable genetic manipulation of yeast. We constructed a system of shuttle vectors based on the widely used plasmids of the pRS series.

Simulating population genetics of pathogen vectors in changing landscapes: guidelines and application with Triatoma brasiliensis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
BACKGROUND:Understanding the mechanisms that influence the population dynamics and spatial genetic structure of the vectors of pathogens infecting humans is a central issue in tropical epidemiology.
