Behind the Paper
The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
Discovery of a natural IgA human monoclonal antibody against Mtb protein LpqH and its significance in TB prophylaxis
The discovery of a protective natural IgA human monoclonal antibody against LpqH, a major virulence factor in Mtb pathogenesis, from a naturally exposed asymptomatic donor, opens new avenues in TB vaccine development and prophylaxis.
Unambiguous joint detection of spatially separated properties of a single photon in the two arms of an interferometer
Bohr's complementarity principle of wave-particle mutual exclusivity lies at the heart of standard quantum interpretation of interference. Going beyond, our experiment jointly detects spatially separated different properties of a photon within an interferometer while preserving wave-like coherence.
Cetaceans as Potentially Useful Animal Models for Human Central Nervous System Disorders
Stranded cetaceans provide a unique opportunity for gaining insight into their increasingly threatened health and conservation. Within this framework, cetaceans could also serve as potentially useful animal models for human central nervous system (CNS) diseases (Di Guardo, 2023).
