HISTOLOGY OF DERMAL OSSIFICATIONS IN AN ANKYLOSAURIAN DINOSAUR FROM THE LATE CRETACEOUS OF ANTARCTICA

Ankylosaurian remains from the Late Cretaceous (Campanian) Santa Marta Formation of the James Ross Island in the Antarctic Peninsula include several types of armour, the most abundant being tiny, button-like ossicles (less than 5 mm in diam...

Modular multi-fidelity simulation framework for advanced sail-driven spacecraft control and dynamics in perturbation-rich regimes

This work presents a high-fidelity Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) simulation framework for the development and validation of control strategies for sail-driven spacecraft operating in Low Earth Orbit (LEO). The framework integrates NVIDIA Omniv...

Identification and structural analysis of the interactional effect of the change drivers on the field of education

Due to its wide range and importance, the education system has very important and complex elements that if we neglect to monitor their future variations, it can lead to undeniable and profound damages to the results that are expected to be ...

Software engineering for security

Integrating Security Considerations smoothly into early life-cycle activities: uniform application of cost-benefit analyses to both functional, and security requrements; unified modeling approaches to integrate the engineering of both funct...

Governance Networks in Public Administration and Public Policy

What do public administrators and policy analysts have in common? Their work is undertaken within networks formed when different organizations align to accomplish a policy function. This second edition of Governance Networks in Public Admin...

Going beyond the flood insurance rate map: insights from flood hazard map co-production

Flood hazard mapping in the United States (US) is deeply tied to the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Consequently, publicly available flood maps provide essential information for insurance purposes, but they do not necessarily pr...

Toward optimal implementation of cancer prevention and control programs in public health: a study protocol on mis-implementation

Abstract Background Much of the cancer burden in the USA is preventable, through application of existing knowledge. State-level funders and public health practitioners are in ideal positions to affect programs and policies related to cancer...

Diagnostic and Therapeutic Properties of Exosomes in Cardiac Fibrosis

Cardiac fibrosis results from both the differentiation of cardiac fibroblasts and excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM), leading to myocardial stiffness and reduced compliance of the ventricular wall. The conversion of cardia...

Remodeling of Metabolic and Secretory Organelles During Oncogenic and Oncomodulatory Viral Infections

Persistent oncovirus infections account for 15–20% of the global cancer burden, driving multiple forms of human cancer. To maintain persistent infection and spread, oncoviruses drive alterations in host cell metabolism, immune signaling, an...
