As opposed to the accounts of the first European travellers (the Boers) who landed in Southern Africa in 1652, most travel writings of the second part of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century were aimed at a wide audience as ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Iterative calibration of medical digital twins via adaptive estimators
While iterative calibration of computational models is a fundamental aspect of digital twins, it has been largely overlooked. Instead of focusing on parameter identification for static models, the implementation of digital twins requires not only high ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.
