The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
The Story Behind the Paper: In vitro antimalarial activity of phytochemicals from Bombax costatum via inhibition of β-hematin formation
My colleague Hassan and I have collaborated since our MSc (2016), united by a shared mission: fighting malaria. Growing up in Nigeria, we saw its devastating toll. With Africa bearing 70% of global cases, we knew this was where we belonged
Sleep as an Early Signal in ASD Genetics: Insights from Juvenile Shank3-Deficient Rats
Sleep problems often emerge early in ASD but are still treated as secondary. Our juvenile Shank3-deficient rat study highlights the need to address sleep in children with ASD—and to intervene early.
Numerical model for the identification of the convective heat transfer coefficient in cryogenic nitrogen cooling
Calculation of the convective heat transfer coefficient is challenging, especially for asymmetric boundary conditions, due to spatial variability. Numerical procedures are established methods to solve the parabolic heat equation.
