For Goodness' Sake: The Coloniality of Research Ethics in Biological Anthropology
ABSTRACT Modern science has emerged in relation with European colonization whereby virtuous logics have often animated dis/possessions and governing authorities over Indigenous Peoples and their territories. Indigenous Peoples have long resisted extractive and exploitative scientific practices.

A Recombinant Measles Vaccine with Enhanced Resistance to Passive Immunity
Current measles vaccines suffer from poor effectiveness in young infants due primarily to the inhibitory effect of residual maternal immunity on vaccine responses.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a significant chronic infection in pediatric patients. Vaccination induces production of anti‐Hepatitis B surface antibodies, which serve as markers of protective immunity. Given the long‐term risks of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma during adulthood, this study aimed to assess ...

GC B Cells, Tfh Cells, and Influenza bnAbs: Insights for Improving Universal Vaccine Design
ABSTRACT Antibodies are crucial for providing protection against influenza virus infection; however, protective humoral immunity is limited by antigenic drift and shift. Hence, the discovery of broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) targeting conserved epitopes on hemagglutinin protein evokes the hope of developing a universal influenza vaccine ...

ABSTRACT Hepatitis B virus (HBV) mother‐to‐child transmission (MTCT) remains a major challenge in Uganda, where 43% of births occur at home, and access to timely birth dose (BD) vaccination is limited. We evaluated the impact of combining universal three‐dose (3D) infant vaccination, targeted BD vaccination, and maternal antiviral treatment for high ...

Synthetic Ligands of Myeloid C‐Type Lectin Receptors
Binding of ligands to C‐type lectin receptors (CLRs) on myeloid cells can lead to an array of cellular responses. Exploitation of these receptors for therapeutic purposes requires high‐affinity ligands. This review surveys the diversity of synthetic ligands of myeloid CLRs in the context of binding, signaling, and downstream effects, as well as ...

Measles Control in Nigeria: the Case for a Two-dose Vaccine Policy
Summary : Despite all the efforts expended on routine immunization since the era of Expanded Programme of Immunization (EPI) later called the National Programme of Immunization (NPI), measles remains a disturbing cause of morbidity and mortality in ...
