Insulin receptor signaling engages bladder urothelial defenses that limit urinary tract infection
Summary: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) commonly afflict people with diabetes. To better understand the mechanisms that predispose diabetics to UTIs, we employ diabetic mouse models and altered insulin signaling to show that insulin receptor (IR) shapes

Location embedding based pairwise distance learning for fine-grained diagnosis of urinary stones [PDF]
The precise diagnosis of urinary stones is crucial for devising effective treatment strategies. The diagnostic process, however, is often complicated by the low contrast between stones and surrounding tissues, as well as the variability in stone locations across different patients.

Bayesian Nonparametric Modelling of Joint Gap Time Distributions for Recurrent Event Data [PDF]
We propose autoregressive Bayesian semi-parametric models for waiting times between recurrent events. The aim is two-fold: inference on the effect of possibly time-varying covariates on the gap times and clustering of individuals based on the time trajectory of the recurrent event.
