A critical review of bioactive glasses and glass–ceramics in cancer therapy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Glass Science, Volume 14, Issue 1, Page 69-87, January 2023., 2023
Abstract There is an ongoing profound shift in using glass as a primarily passive material to one that instills active properties. We believe and demonstrate that bioactive glasses (BGs) and glass–ceramics (BGCs) as functional biomaterials for cancer therapy can transform the world of healthcare in the 21st century.

Radioisotopes and Nanomedicine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Nanomedicine, the medical application of nanotechnology, is poised to make a major impact on the diagnosis and treatment of many diseases. It is a relatively new branch of science that involves harnessing the unique properties of particles that are nanometers in scale (nanoparticles) for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Nanoparticles (NPs)

Radioactive Probes of the Supernova-Contaminated Solar Nebula: Evidence that the Sun was Born in a Cluster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We construct a simple model for radioisotopic enrichment of the protosolar nebula by injection from a nearby supernova, based on the inverse square law for ejecta dispersion.

The heart, a secondary organ in the control of blood circulation

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Circulation of the blood is a fundamental physiological function traditionally ascribed to the pressure‐generating function of the heart. However, over the past century the ‘cardiocentric’ view has been challenged by August Krogh, Ernst Starling, Arthur Guyton and others, based on haemodynamic data obtained from isolated heart preparations and
