‘The Returned Pilgrim’: Nancy Astor and Plymouth

A pilgrim seeking diagnosis

We present the case of an unusual presentation of Dressler’s syndrome and the important role of new imaging techniques in its diagnosis. A 42-year-old man was admitted with progressive dyspnoea and pleuritic chest pain during the last two months. Physical examination showed signs of hemodynamic instability (BP 75/40, HR 120 bpm). X-Ray showed cardiomegaly and electrocardiogram was suggestive of...

Alexander Sulakvelidze, Chief Scientist at Intralytix and one of its co-founders, says phages are a very safe and natural way of protecting food against bacteria. “The concept of using phages for improving food safety is based on simply applying phages back onto the foods in the right concentration, at the right place, and at the right time,” Sulakvelidze explains. “Thus, applying lytic phages ...

The ribosome returned

Since the mid-1990s, insights obtained from electron microscopy and X-ray crystallography have transformed our understanding of how the most important ribozyme in the cell, the ribosome, catalyzes protein synthesis. This review provides a brief account of how this structural revolution came to pass, and the impact it has had on our understanding of how the ribosome decodes messenger RNAs.

ASTOR: Evolutionary Automatic Software Repair for Java

Context: During last years, many automatic software repair approaches have been presented by the software engineering research community. According to the corresponding papers, these approaches are able to repair real defects from open source projects. Problematic: Some previous publications in the automatic repair field do not provide the implementation of theirs approaches. Consequently, it i...
