As the incidence and already high mortality rates of malignant melanoma have been steadily increasing in recent decades, the early detection and excision of malignant melanoma have imposed as the most important task. Staging of malignant melanoma is determined according to the level of invasion (Clark level) and vertical thickness (Breslow scale). Besides operative therapy, which is the only ef...

Graphene is a wonder material with many superlatives to its name. It is the thinnest known material in the universe and the strongest ever measured. Its charge carriers exhibit giant intrinsic mobility, have zero effective mass, and can travel for micrometers without scattering at room temperature. Graphene can sustain current densities six orders of magnitude higher than that of copper, shows ...

Theoretical backgound for bileptonic gauge bosons is reviewed, both the SU(15) GUT model and the 3-3-1 model. Then the mass limits for bileptons are discussed coming from e+e− scattering, polarized muon decay and muoniumantimuonium conversion. A consequence of precision electroweak data on the masses is mentioned. Discovery in e−e− at a linear collider is emphasised. Theoretical Background. The...

Minocycline is a clinically available antibiotic and anti-inflammatory drug that also demonstrates neuroprotective properties in a variety of experimental models of neurological diseases. There have thus far been more than 300 publications on minocycline neuroprotection, including a growing number of human studies. Our objective is to critically review the biological basis and translational pot...

There are three versions of the priority view on the market whose underlying philosophical motivation is quite different. This articles compares them, and concludes that only one of them is defensible. Acknowledgements This article is one of a series for which John Broome has been a constant source of encouragement and criticism. Much of this stimulus for this article came from a long discussio...

Scandinavian countries are often portrayed in policy debates as model examples having shown how to square concerns for efficiency and equity. The core principle of the Scandinavian welfare model is an individual entitlement to public sector provisions combined with collective financing via taxes. However, a high employment rate is needed to ensure financial viability of this model. The Scandina...
