An African ethics of social wellbeing: Understanding Disability and Public Health

Berghs, Maria (Book chapter)

In this chapter, I argue that we need to reconceptualise how we think of ethics in public health to address disability in Africa. I begin by investigating what an African morality and ethics would look like, why it is ...

AIDS-Related Mycoses: Current Progress in the Field and Future Priorities

Armstrong-James, Darius; Bicanic, Tihana; Brown, Gordon D.; Hoving, Jennifer C.; Meintjes, Graeme; Working group from the, EMBO Workshop on AIDS-Related Mycoses; Kamuyango, Alfred A. (Article)

Opportunistic fungal infections continue to take an unacceptably heavy toll on the most disadvantaged living with HIV-AIDS, and are a major driver for HIV-related deaths. At the second ...

An algorithm for deriving new combinatorial biomarkers based on ridge regression

Terpilowski, M.A.; Korf, E.A.; Jenkins, R. O.; Goncharov, Nikolay V. (Article)

Motivation: Combinatorial biomarkers are considered more specific and sensitive than single markers in medical diagnostics and prediction, yet even detection of such these combinatorial biomarkers requires deep computational ...

Altered potassium channel distribution and composition in myelinated axons suppresses hyperexcitability following injury

Calvo, M.; Richards, N.; Schmid, A. B.; Barroso, A.; Zhu, Lan; Ivulic, D.; Zhu, N.; Anwandter, P.; Bhat, M. A.; Court, F. A.; McMahon, S. B.; Bennett, D. L. (Article)

Neuropathic pain following peripheral nerve injury is associated with hyperexcitability in damaged myelinated sensory axons, which begins to normalise over time. We investigated the composition and distribution of ...
