The Aeolian island of Lipari, just north of eastern Sicily, was a major geological source of high quality obsidian that was volcanically formed in the Late Mesolithic, followed by another major production in the 1st millennium AD.A much earlier volcanic event on Lipari also produced some obsidian, but not of sufficient quality for tool production.A
Integrating multi-criteria models and Geographical information system for cemetery site selection (a case study of the Sanandaj city, Iran)
The ever increasing urban population growth has created many implications in land use planning in the most of developing countries.Traditional methods of spatial planning are still useful, but they Eyelash serum need to be upgraded according to new methodological, technological possibilities and full complexity of spatial planning.The factors which
Willingness to Vaccinate Against COVID-19: The Role of Health Locus of Control and Conspiracy Theories
Understanding the predictors of the willingness to get vaccinated against COVID-19 may aid in the resolution of current and future pandemics.We investigate how the readiness to believe conspiracy theories and the three dimensions of health locus of control (HLOC) affect the attitude toward vaccination.A cross-sectional study was conducted based on
An Amplicon-Based Approach for the Whole-Genome Sequencing of Human Metapneumovirus
Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is an important cause of upper and conditioner lower respiratory tract disease in individuals of all ages.It is estimated that most individuals will be infected by HMPV by the age of five years old.Despite this burden of disease, there remain caveats in our knowledge of global genetic diversity due to a lack of HMPV seq
Optimal control model of tumor treatment in the context of cancer stem cell
We consider cancer cytotoxic drugs as an optimal control problem to stabilize a heterogeneous tumor by attacking not the most abundant cancer cells, but those that are crucial in the tumor ecosystem.We propose a mathematical cancer stem cell model that translates the hierarchy and heterogeneity of cancer cell types Car Sunshade by including highly
