Early centralization of care may improve local and systemic treatment quality, but evidence in this population is limited.

Voter models with conserved dynamics
We propose a modified voter model with locally conserved magnetization and investigate its phase ordering dynamics in two dimensions in numerical simulations. Imposing a local constraint on the dynamics has the surprising effect of speeding up the phase ordering process.

A Survey on Nonstrategic Models of Opinion Dynamics
The paper presents a survey on selected models of opinion dynamics. Both discrete (more precisely, binary) opinion models as well as continuous opinion models are discussed. We focus on frameworks that assume non-Bayesian updating of opinions.
