Working equids: linking human and animal welfare
Veterinary Record, 2020 Working equids continue to be an essential component of the livelihoods of millions of families worldwide, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.1 These animals provide a critical support system to the households that rely on them, with a central pillar of this support system being the money they generate – both directly and indirectly – and

The Relationship Between Working Equids and Women in Developing Countries [PDF]
Equine Veterinary Journal, 2014 Reasons for performing study There are approximately 100 million working equids in developing countries worldwide. These animals’ role in impoverished communities is generally unrecognised by national and international policy makers and their needs are overlooked in national animal health systems.

Envelope Theorems for Non-Smooth and Non-Concave Optimization [PDF]
, 2012 We study general dynamic programming problems with continuous and discrete choices and general constraints. The value functions may have kinks arising (1) at indifference points between discrete choices and (2) at constraint boundaries.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.xxxx. ABSTRACT Glioblastoma (GBM) remains one of the most lethal brain cancers, with median survival rarely exceeding 15 months after diagnosis. Interleukin‐12 (IL‐12) is a potent immunostimulatory cytokine capable of reshaping the tumor microenvironment (TME), yet its clinical translation is hindered by systemic toxicity and short half‐life. RNA‐based
