The value proposition of integrative diagnostics for (early) detection of cancer. On behalf of the EFLM interdisciplinary Task and Finish Group “CNAPS/CTC for early detection of cancer”
No full textDisruptive imaging and laboratory technologies can improve clinical decision processes and outcomes in oncology. However, certain obstacles must be overcome before these technologies can be fully implemented as part of the standard for care. An integrative diagnostic approach represents a unique opportunity to unleash the full diagnostic potential and paves the way towards personalized cancer diagnostics. To meet this demand, an interdisciplinary Task Force of the EFLM was initiated as a consequence of an EFLM/ESR during the CELME 2019 meeting in order to evaluate the clinical value of CNAPS/CTC (circulating nucleic acids in plasma and serum/circulating tumor cells) in early detection of cancer. Here, an overview of current disruptive techniques, their clinical implications and potential value of an integrative diagnostic approach is provided. Furthermore, requirements such as the establishment of diagnostic tumor boards, development of adequate software solutions and a change of mindset towards a new generation of diagnosticians providing actionable health information are presented. This development has the potential to elevate the position and clinical recognition of diagnosticians
Simon Winchester, Map that changed the world
No full textreviewThe author, noted writer Simon Winchester (who graduated with a Geology degree from Oxford University), makes no secret of the fact that this text is an unabashed tribute to his hero, William Smith, a nineteenth century surveyor and canal digger whose passionate hobby was geology. In the course of Smith\u27s vocation and avocation he went on to create what became the first geologic map of the British Isles in 1815 and to become the individual who many believe to be the father of modem geology
Protein-induced modifications in crystal morphology of a hydrogen-bonded organic framework
No full textIn this work, we studied the encapsulation of a range of proteins in a hydrogen-bonded organic framework (HOF) comprised of a tetraamidinium cation and diazobenzene-based dicarboxylate anion. We explore the use of external stimuli: light and temperature to modulate HOF crystal growth and size. In particular, we found photo-isomerisation can be used to control the concentration of the trans-azobenzene building block that contributes to HOF formation. When HOF growth was slowed sufficiently, deformation of the crystals and ultimately multicrystal aggregates were observed in the presence of some proteins. We propose that the extent of crystal deformation, consistent with better protein association, may be governed by differences in the type and strength of interactions between proteins and the surface of the growing HOF crystals.Kate L.

Forecasting banknotes
No full textA central bank’s liquidity forecast is important in ensuring that it supplies the banking system’s need for central bank money. Banknote (or currency in circulation) demand is the largest and for some central banks the most variable component of the liquidity forecast. Accurate forecasting of banknotes is essential in ensuring an accurate liquidity forecast and in turn effective monetary policy implementation. This Handbook discusses these issues and outlines a structural time series state space (STSSS) model which is now used by central banks including the Bank of England and ECB to forecast banknotes (currency in circulation).Forecasting banknotes
