“Yet the Problem Remains”: Why Genetic Determinism Still Haunts Biomedical Research
Bioethics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT After the horrors of the Holocaust and its connections to eugenics were revealed to the world, many post‐war population geneticists sought to establish rhetorical distance from the Nazi's state‐led campaigns, without abandoning their belief that actively shaping the population's genetics would produce a prosperous society.

Cancer Science, EarlyView.Multi‐region sequencing of 57 BRCA1‐associated breast cancers identified TP53 as the dominant initial driver, defining a triple‐negative subgroup with biallelic BRCA1 loss and elevated genomic instability. TP53 truncating mutations were enriched in BRCA1 carriers and linked to reduced HRD, EMT activation, and a trend toward worse survival.

Long‐Term Local Control and Mortality After Transpupillary Thermotherapy of Small Uveal Melanomas
Clinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Transpupillary thermotherapy (TTT) is used for selected small choroidal melanocytic tumours, either as primary treatment or as an adjunct to plaque brachytherapy. We compared long‐term local recurrence and mortality outcomes after primary TTT alone, plaque brachytherapy combined with TTT (brachy+TTT), and plaque brachytherapy alone (

Substructurality and residuation in logic and algebra [PDF]
, 2015 A very and natural way of introducing a logic is by using a sequent calculus, or Gentzen system. These systems are determined by specifying a set of axioms and a set of rules. Axioms are then starting points from which we can derive new consequences by
