Diversity Deficit and Scale-Flip
We present a comprehensive multi-scale test of the diversity-deficit hypothesis that posits a negative association between diversity and development. We develop a ‘scale-flip... -

Semiparametric efficient inferences for generalised partially linear models
In this paper, we consider semiparametric efficient inferences in the generalised partially linear models. A novel bias-corrected estimating procedure and a bias-corrected... -
Casein kinases as potential therapeutic targets
Introduction: The conventional term ‘casein kinase’ (CK) denotes three classes of kinases – CK1, CK2 and Golgi-CK (G-CK)/Fam20C (family with sequence similarity 20, member C) –... -
The New Zealand white rabbit animal model of acute radiation syndrome: hemato...
