Harnessing Whole Genome Sequence Data for Facility-Specific Signatures for Listeria monocytogenes: A Case Study With Turkey Processing Plants in the United States

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2021
Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-positive foodborne pathogen responsible for the severe disease listeriosis and notorious for its ability to persist in food processing plants, leading to contamination of processed, ready-to-eat foods. L.

Task Persistence: A Potential Mediator of the Income-Achievement Gap [PDF]

, 2016
Background: The pervasive gap in achievement among impoverished children has been investigated primarily in terms of parental investments, specifically parent to child speech and other forms of cognitive stimulation (e.g., toys, print materials).

Quorum Sensing-Regulated Phenol-Soluble Modulins Limit Persister Cell Populations in Staphylococcus aureus

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Incomplete killing of bacterial pathogens by antibiotics is an underlying cause of treatment failure and accompanying complications. Among those avoiding chemotherapy are persisters being individual cells in a population that for extended periods of time

Graded persistence diagrams and persistence landscapes

, 2021
We introduce a refinement of the persistence diagram, the graded persistence diagram. It is the Mobius inversion of the graded rank function, which is obtained from the rank function using the unary numeral system.

Optimal Maturation of the SIV-Specific CD8+ T Cell Response after Primary Infection Is Associated with Natural Control of SIV: ANRS SIC Study

Cell Reports, 2020
Summary: Highly efficient CD8+ T cells are associated with natural HIV control, but it has remained unclear how these cells are generated and maintained.

The persistence landscape and some of its properties

, 2019
Persistence landscapes map persistence diagrams into a function space, which may often be taken to be a Banach space or even a Hilbert space. In the latter case, it is a feature map and there is an associated kernel. The main advantage of this summary is
