Monad Transformers as Monoid Transformers

The incremental approach to modular monadic semantics constructs complex monads by using monad transformers to add computational features to a preexisting monad.

In a companion paper by Jaskelioff, the lifting problem has been addressed in the setting of system Fω. Her...

“A Cystic Neoplasm in Disguise”

Odontogenic pathologies are a group of site specific lesions occurring in jaw bones unless metastasized to other body sites. These pathologies vary in nature from hamartomatous proliferations to malignant neoplasms with metastatic potential. The source of origin being tissue associated with odontogenesis[1], (cell rests of serres, epithelial cell rests of malassez, reduced enamel epithelium and...
