COMBINING PHYLOGENETIC AND NETWORK APPROACHES TO IDENTIFY HIV-1 TRANSMISSION LINKS IN SAN MATEO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA

Combining Phylogenetic and Network Approaches to Identify HIV-1 Transmission Links in San Mateo County, California

The HIV epidemic in San Mateo County is sustained by multiple overlapping risk groups and is an important hub for HIV transmission in northern California.Limited access to care has led historically to delayed clinical presentation, higher rates of opportunistic infections, and an increased prevalence of antiretroviral drug resistance.The virologic

Efficient algorithms for quantum information bottleneck

The ability to extract relevant information is critical to learning.An ingenious approach as such is the information bottleneck, an optimisation problem whose solution corresponds to a faithful and memory-efficient representation of relevant information from a large system.The advent of the age of quantum computing calls for efficient methods that

Caenorhabditis elegans expressing the Saccharomyces cerevisiae NADH alternative dehydrogenase Ndi1p, as a tool to identify new genes involved in complex I related diseases

Isolated complex I deficiencies are one of the most commonly observed biochemical features in patients suffering from mitochondrial disorders.In the majority of these clinical cases the molecular bases of the diseases remain unknown suggesting the involvement of unidentified factors that are critical for complex I function.The Saccharomyces cerevis
