Join Ken Kavula and Mark Robertson as they present a progress report on their Best Small Companies for 2020. They will show how the list was put together and look at some interesting ways to identify small comp
Besides, for application of complex soil models in numerical simulation it is necessary to define a fairly large number of input parameters characterizing physical and mechanical properties of soils and materials. Soil models for the computer simulation of SSS, calculation of settlements, the modes of...
Interview transcripts were imported into NVivo (R1/2020) for management and coding. Thematic analysis of each transcript was conducted to identify, analyze, and report patterns within the data, as described by Braun and Clarke [39,40]. This approach, when expanded to the study of all transcrip...

The retinal degenerative diseases, which together constitute a leading cause of hereditary blindness worldwide, are largely untreatable. Development of reliable methods to culture complex retinal tissues from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) could of
However, the secondary preventive perspective is generally considerably longer in terms of treatment duration, and there is currently insufficient knowledge of how to perform cost-effective follow-up to ensure long-term adherence to risk factor treatment goals. Currently, the only available study with ...
It is generally assumed at the time of this writing that memories are stored in the form of synaptic weights. However, it is now also clear that the synapses are not permanent; in fact, synaptic patterns undergo significant change in a matter of hours. T
