MOTIVATION With over 9000 unique users recorded in the first half of 2013, MEME is one of the most popular motif-finding tools available. Reliable estimates of the statistical significance of motifs can greatly increase the usefulness of any motif finder. By analogy, it is difficult to imagine evaluating a BLAST result without its accompanying E-value. Currently MEME evaluates its EM-generated ...

Amaç: Meme kanseri, kadınlarda kansere bağlı ölüm nedenleri arasında tüm dünyada çok büyük bir tehdit oluşturmaktadır. Uzun yıllardır meme kanseri etiyolojisine yönelik çalışmalar yapılmaktadır. Memenin radyolojik dansite yoğunluğunun üzerinde etkili olduğunun gösterilmesi ile bu konuda hızlanmıştır. Yapılan çalışmalarda dansitesinin farklı etnik kökenli toplumlar değişiklikler gösterdiği sunul...

Focusing on the case of ‘Gay Clown Putin’, this article theorizes memes as visual interventions in international politics. While not all are political interventions, Gay Putin is an iconic meme that part response to Russian state-directed homophobia emerged after gay propaganda law was passed 2013. How it has circulated and attention received make apt for exploring challenge national security d...

background and objective: there is a concern on safety of human fresh frozen plasma (ffp) as it is a source of some medicinal products. the possibility of transmission of blood-borne are reported often due to emerging viruses. there are some pathogen reduction technologies (prt) to inactivate viruses. methylene blue (mb) based method is one of them. the aim of this study was to examine new desi...

background and aims: influenza a viruses are important pathogens for humans especially in pandemic episodes. two adamantane derivates, amantadine and rimantadine, are used for prophylaxis and treatment of influenza a virus infections. however, single amino acid substitutions in the m2 transmembrane domain which lead to amantadine resistance of these viruses occur at residues 26, 27, 30, 31 or 3...

A number of recent studies of information diffusion in social media, both empirical and theoretical, have been inspired by viral propagation models derived from epidemiology. These studies model the propagation of memes, i.e., pieces of information, between users in a social network similarly to the way diseases spread in human society. Importantly, one would expect a meme to spread in a social...

Agent-based modeling (ABM) is a common computational analysis tool to study system dynamics. In the framework of ABM, the system consists of multiple autonomous and interacting agents. We can explore emergent collective patterns by simulating the individual operations and interactions between agents. As a case study, we present an experiment using an agent-based model to study how competition f...
