The development of nations conditions the disease space [PDF]
Using the economic complexity methodology on data for disease prevalence in 195 countries during the period of 1990-2016, we propose two new metrics for quantifying the relatedness between diseases, or the `disease space' of countries. With these metrics, we analyze the geography of diseases and empirically investigate the effect of economic ...

Fluorogenic dimers enable background‐free imaging of biological targets under wash‐free conditions owing to a strong fluorescence enhancement in the apolar cell microenvironment. However, it is crucial that the imaging probe interacts solely with the target receptor to avoid non‐specific interactions and ensure detection with a high signal‐to‐noise ...
