From an observational standpoint, stellar activity poses a critical challenge to exoplanet science, as it inhibits the detection of planets and the precise measurement of their parameters. Radial velocity and transit searches revealed a significant fraction of exoplanet hosts is active, and showed the need to fully understand the different facets of stellar activity and its impact on observables. Moreover, the activity correction is of prime importance for the detection and characterisation of Earth analogues. We present a review of the effects that stellar activity features such as starspots, faculae, and stellar granulation have on photometric and low-resolution spectroscopic observations of exoplanets, and discuss the main aspects of the techniques which were developed to reduce their impact.

Cross-sectional, quantitative research on the perception of pharmacy students from the University of Santo Tomas and their parents toward vaccinationBackground: Vaccine hesitancy is a global concern wherein contributing factors are lack of vaccine confidence, mistrust, alternative parental beliefs, and inadequate information. Methods: This study assessed and compared vaccine-related perceptions of pharmacy students and their guardians in the Philippines through a cross-sectional design survey using the 5C scale (confidence, complacency, constraints, calculations, and collective responsibility). Recruitment was stratified to ensure findings are equally represented. Bivariate non-parametric tests and linear regression analyses were applied. Results: Findings revealed that students were more confident towards vaccines (p = 0.035), and more socially responsible (p = 0.023), while parents were more likely to seek vaccine-related information (p = 0.013). Students were less complacent (p = 0.014) to immunity and less likely to be hindered in getting vaccinated. Predictors of good vaccine-related behaviours were determined to affect the...

Natural and artificial binders of polyriboadenylic acid and their effect on RNA structure2015 •
The employment of molecular tools with nucleic acid binding ability to specifically control crucial cellular functions represents an important scientific area at the border between biochemistry and pharmaceutical chemistry. In this review we describe several molecular systems of natural or artificial origin, which are able to bind polyriboadenylic acid (poly(rA)) both in its single-stranded or structured forms. Due to the fundamental role played by the poly(rA) tail in the maturation and stability of mRNA, as well as in the initiation of the translation process, compounds able to bind this RNA tract, influencing the mRNA fate, are of special interest for developing innovative biomedical strategies mainly in the field of anticancer therapy.

Computer Arithmetic Preserving Hamming Distance of Operands in Operation Result2011 •
Abstract: The traditional approach to fault tolerant computing involves replicating computation units and applying a majority vote operation on individual result bits. This approach, however, has several limitations; the most severe is the resource requirement. This paper presents a new method for fault tolerant computing where for a given error rate, the hamming distance between correct inputs and faulty inputs as well as the hamming distance between a correct result and a faulty result is preserved throughout processing ...
