''Heritage buildings are often subjected to loading conditions that they were not exposed to in their earlier life span. Induced earthquakes in non-seismic regions caused by energy exploitation activities, or strains in the ground that are caused by the climate changes, are new phenomena that alter the …

The nasopharyngeal commensal Streptococcus pneumoniae can become invasive and cause metastatic infection. This requires the pneumococcus to have the ability to adapt, grow, and reside in diverse host environments. Therefore, we studied whether the likelihood of severe disease manifestations was related …

Plastic is one of the biggest contributors to pollution of the planet. Due to the low recyclability of oil-based plastics, most plastic is being disposed into the environment.
