The skills required for transition to university and study in biological sciences: A student perspective

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Bioscience students were asked for their opinions on the value and teaching of skills. 204 responded that teamwork, time management and study skills are necessary to reach University, that scientific writing, research, laboratory and presentation skills are taught effectively during their studies, while other skills are gained inherently through study ...

To save or not to save your family member’s life? Evolutionary stability of self-sacrificing life history strategy in monogamous sexual populations

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
Background For the understanding of human nature, the evolutionary roots of human moral behaviour are a key precondition. Our question is as follows: Can the altruistic moral rule “Risk your life to save your family members, if you want them to save your

Blood‐based proteomic profiling reveals context‐dependent changes in BCL2‐associated signaling during taxane therapy in breast cancer patients

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy side effects significantly impact cancer survivors' quality of life. Using protein levels in blood samples from breast cancer patients before and after 12 weeks of taxane treatment, we detected treatment‐dependent changes in calcium signaling and aging pathways associated with cancer recurrence.

A Fractional Process with Jumps for Modeling Karstic Spring Discharge Data

Mathematics
Fractal dimensions for the daily discharge data series of several karstic springs in northeast Hungary have recently been computed and analyzed. We model four of those series with similar fractal dimensions using a superposition of a fractional Ornstein ...

Bayesian Inference for Questionable Data

Austrian Journal of Statistics, 2016
In this paper we develop Bayesian procedures for vague data. The data are assumed to be vague in the sense that the likelihood is a mixture of the model distribution and an error distribution.

Molecular dynamics simulations of positively selected codons in FcγRI reveal novel biochemical binding properties

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Evolutionary analysis across 32 placental mammals identified positive selection at residues H148 and W149 in the immune receptor FcγR1. Ancestral reconstruction combined with molecular dynamics simulations reveals how these mutations may influence receptor structure and dynamics, providing insight into the evolution of antibody recognition and immune ...

Creating Tail Dependence by Rough Stochastic Correlation Satisfying a Fractional SDE; An Application in Finance

Mathematics
The stochastic correlation for Brownian motions is the integrand in the formula of their quadratic covariation. The estimation of this stochastic process becomes available from the temporally localized correlation of latent price driving Brownian motions

Estimates for distribution of suprema of solutions to higher-order partial differential equations with random initial conditions

Modern Stochastics: Theory and Applications, 2019
In the paper we consider higher-order partial differential equations from the class of linear dispersive equations. We investigate solutions to these equations subject to random initial conditions given by harmonizable φ-sub-Gaussian processes.

The McCance Brain Care Score and Mortality: Evidence From a Large‐Scale Population‐Based Cohort

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to examine the relationship between the McCance Brain Care Score (BCS) and mortality in the general population. Methods We conducted a prospective, population‐based cohort study using data from the UK Biobank. Participants with complete data enabling calculation of BCS and full mortality information were included ...

Long-Term Dynamics of a Stochastic SIRV Model for TB with Random Disturbances

Journal of Optimization, Differential Equations and Their Applications
We investigate the long-term behavior of an epidemic using a stochastic SIRV (Susceptible-Infectious-Recovered-Vaccinated) model that incorporates time dependent parameters and random perturbations.
