Evidence‐Informed Multidisciplinary Consensus Guidance for the Psychosocial Care of Adolescents With High‐Risk Cancer: Recommendations From the Italian Association of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Adolescents with high‐risk cancer face complex developmental, psychosocial, and ethical challenges that extend beyond disease‐directed treatment. Although international recommendations exist for communication, psychosocial care, pediatric palliative care, survivorship, and shared decision‐making, these have largely evolved within ...

Maintaining population diversity by maintaining family structures [PDF]

Proceedings of the 10th annual conference on Genetic and evolutionary computation, 2008
The selection event algorithm introduced an interesting method of creating offspring from parents in a multi-generational manner with a period of fitness neutrality followed by an intense selection event. This algorithm did not have a focus on maintaining diversity in the population, so it had all of the same pitfalls as other algorithms lacking such a
