UvA - DARE ( Digital Academic Repository ) Analysing communicative diversity via the

What is the influence of the diversity of the targeted audience on how and what is communicated? Although Gricean pragmatics studies the effect of context on what is being communicated, the question how things are communicated is mostly ignored. Moreover, the impact of the size (and thus expected diversity) of the targeted audience is typically not addressed at all. In this paper we will study ...

Quantification of stato-kinetic dissociation by semi-automated perimetry

The difference in threshold sensitivities that are found when examining the visual field (VF) with static versus kinetic perimetric methods is called stato-kinetic dissociation (SKD). In this pilot study, we describe a semi-automated procedure for quantifying SKD. Fifteen patients with VF defects were examined with kinetic and static perimetry. SKD values were defined as positive when the stati...

The near horizon limit of the extremal BTZ black hole is a “self-dual orbifold” of AdS3. This geometry has a null circle on its boundary, and thus the dual field theory is a Discrete Light Cone Quantized (DLCQ) two dimensional CFT. The same geometry can be compactified to two dimensions giving AdS2 with a constant electric field. The kinematics of the DLCQ show that in a consistent quantum theo...

Structural and energetic evidence for highly peptide-specific tumor antigen targeting via allo-MHC restriction.

Immunotherapies targeting peptides presented by allogeneic MHC molecules offer the prospect of circumventing tolerance to key tumor-associated self-antigens. However, the degree of antigen specificity mediated by alloreactive T cells, and their ability to discriminate normal tissues from transformed cells presenting elevated antigen levels, is poorly understood. We examined allorecognition of a...
