Mucin-inspired, high molecular weight virus binding inhibitors show biphasic binding behavior to influenza A viruses [PDF]
Multivalent virus binding inhibitors are a promising new class of antivirals, preventing virus infection of cells by inhibiting the first step in the viral infection cycle - binding of viruses to the cell surface. The design of multivalent virus binding inhibitors is complex as many properties, such as inhibitor size and functionalization with virus ...

Bayesian analysis of longitudinal studies with treatment by indication [PDF]
It is often of interest in observational studies to measure the causal effect of a treatment on time-to-event outcomes. In a medical setting, observational studies commonly involve patients who initiate medication therapy and others who do not, and the goal is to infer the effect of medication therapy on time until recovery, a pre-defined level of ...
