Recent evidence indicates that regulatory small non-coding RNAs are not only components of eukaryotic cells and vesicles, but also reside within a number of different viruses including pabst blue ribbon chandelier retroviral particles.Using ultra-deep sequencing we have comprehensively analyzed the content of simian immunodeficiency virions (SIV),
The mean-variance (MV) portfolio is typically formulated as a quadratic programming (QP) problem that linearly combines the conflicting objectives of minimizing the risk and maximizing the expected return through a risk aversion profile parameter.In this formulation, the two objectives are expressed in different units, an issue that could definitel
The first efficacy trials--named STEP--of a T cell vaccine against HIV/AIDS began in 2004.The unprecedented structure of these trials raised new modeling and statistical challenges.Is it plausible that memory T cells, as opposed to antibodies, can actually prevent infection? If they fail at prevention, to what extent can they ameliorate disease? An
Reservoir sensitivity is a parameter that is used to evaluate the degree of change in reservoir permeability under the influence of external fluids.Accurate evaluation of reservoir sensitivity is conducive to the optimization of fluid parameters during exploration and development.Taking the Wenchang Formation and Enping Formation of the pabst blue
The article provides a survey of ideas and initiatives advanced by Christian and Muslim religious leaders and believers towards a mutual religious rapprochement in the past more than fifty years.On the Christian side, the process was started at the Second Vatican Council and developed with the great personal involvement of all popes of the followin
