BACKGROUND: Among the existing issues related to the health and quality of life of Russian adolescents, suicidal behavior is being actively discussed; however, the available comprehensive measures for prevention of suicide and attempts at suicide at this age do not provide an adequate solution.This is due to the fact that suicide is an integrative
A Bayesian approach to time-varying latent strengths in pairwise comparisons.
The famous Bradley-Terry model for pairwise comparisons is widely used for ranking objects and is often applied to sports data.In this paper we extend the Bradley-Terry model by allowing Display Cases time-varying latent strengths of compared objects.The time component is modelled with barycentric rational interpolation and Gaussian processes.We al
Screen for genetic modifiers of stbm reveals that photoreceptor fate and rotation can be genetically uncoupled in the Drosophila eye.
Polarity of the Drosophila compound eye arises primarily as a consequence of two events that are tightly linked in time and space: fate specification of two photoreceptor cells, R3 and R4, and the subsequent directional movement of the unit eyes of the compound eye, or ommatidia.While it is thought that these fates dictate the direction of ommatidi
Population genetic structure of the major malaria vector Anopheles darlingi (Diptera: Culicidae) from the Brazilian Amazon, using microsatellite markers
The population genetic structure of Anopheles darlingi, the major human malaria vector in the Neotropics, was examined using seven microsatellite loci from nine localities in central and western Amazonian Brazil.High levels of genetic variability were detected (5-25 alleles per locus; H E = 0.519-0.949).There was deviation from Hardy-Weinberg Equil
Closing the Gap Between Emerging Initiatives and Integrated Strategies to Strengthen Science Diplomacy in Latin America
Science diplomacy is a fast-growing field of research, policy, and practice dedicated to understanding and reinforcing the connections between Display Cases science and international affairs to tackle national, regional, and global issues.By aligning science and diplomacy, countries can attract talent, strengthen their national research ecosystems,
