Economic Affairs, EarlyView.Abstract The Inquiry into the fire at Grenfell Tower, London, in 2017 has exposed the failures that led to the tragedy in a commendably exhaustive manner.

Retrieving Your Concepts: Iris Murdoch on Original Sin
European Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.Abstract In The Sovereignty of Good, Iris Murdoch argues that our moral thinking will be impoverished until it possesses a secular conception of original sin.

Immunology, EarlyView.During homeostasis, CCL22 is secreted by dendritic cells (DC), which mediate contacts between regulatory T cells (Treg) and DC to maintain immune balance. Activation of innate immunity via microbes or pattern recognition receptor (PRR) agonists induces the secretion of several soluble factors (e.g., type I and II interferons, IL‐10), which mediate ...

A spectral analysis extension to DEMATEL for strategic leverage points identification
International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract Efforts to intervene in complex systems often emphasize influential factors, yet system behavior is equally shaped by the relationships among them.
