Photodynamic therapy of cancer‐associated infections
Pathogens can be involved in tumor initiation, promotion and progression through different mechanisms, and their treatment can prevent new cancer cases, improve outcomes, and revert poor‐prognostic phenotypes. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) successfully treats different types of cancers and infections, and, therefore, has a unique potential to address ...

Generating Focussed Molecule Libraries for Drug Discovery with Recurrent Neural Networks [PDF]
In de novo drug design, computational strategies are used to generate novel molecules with good affinity to the desired biological target. In this work, we show that recurrent neural networks can be trained as generative models for molecular structures, similar to statistical language models in natural language processing.

A Geostatistical Framework for Combining Spatially Referenced Disease Prevalence Data from Multiple Diagnostics [PDF]
Multiple diagnostic tests are often used due to limited resources or because they provide complementary information on the epidemiology of a disease under investigation. Existing statistical methods to combine prevalence data from multiple diagnostics ignore the potential over-dispersion induced by the spatial correlations in the data.
