The primary objective of this study was to determine the in vivo absorption properties of valacyclovir, including the potential for saturable proton-coupled oligopeptide transporter 1 (PepT1)-mediated intestinal uptake, after escalating oral doses of prodrug within the clinical dose range. A secondary aim was to characterize the role of PepT1 on the tissue distribution of its active metabolite,...

Summary: The association of organisms to their environments is a key issue in exploring biodiversity patterns. This knowledge has traditionally been scattered, but textual descriptions of taxa and their habitats are now being consolidated in centralized resources. However, structured annotations are needed to facilitate large-scale analyses. Therefore, we developed ENVIRONMENTS, a fast dictiona...

Adaptive Combination of Behaviors in an gent

Agents are of interest mainly when confronted with complex tasks. We propose a methodology for the automated design of such agents (in the framework of Markov Decision Processes) in the case where the global task can be decomposed into simpler -possibly concurrentsub-tasks. This is accomplished by automatically combining basic behaviors using Reinforcement Learning methods. The main idea is to ...

The Gent–McWilliams Skew Flux

This paper formulates tracer stirring arising from the Gent–McWilliams (GM) eddy-induced transport in terms of a skew-diffusive flux. A skew-diffusive tracer flux is directed normal to the tracer gradient, which is in contrast to a diffusive tracer flux directed down the tracer gradient. Analysis of the GM skew flux provides an understanding of the physical mechanisms prescribed by GM stirring,...
