Improved Holographic QCD
We provide a review to holographic models based on Einstein-dilaton gravity
with a potential in 5 dimensions. Such theories, for a judicious choice of
potential are very close to the physics of large-N YM theory both at zero and
finite temperature. The zero temperature glueball spectra as well as their
finite temperature thermodynamic functions compare well with lattice data. The
model can be used to calculate transport coefficients, like bulk viscosity, the
drag force and jet quenching parameters, relevant for the physics of the
Quark-Gluon Plasma.Comment: LatEX, 65 pages, 28 figures, 9 Tables. Based on lectures given at

High-resolution HLA class I typing in the CEPH families: analysis of linkage disequilibrium among HLA loci
DNA TYPING OF HLA-DQ ALLELES BY GENE AMPLIFICATION OF DQA AND DQB VARIABLE EXONS: ANALYSIS OF DQA/DQB HAPLOTYPES
It is the negation of Scotlandās democratic will, not the EU question as such, that justifies an IndyRef2
It is often assumed that calls for a second Scottish referendum are due to the fact that Scotland voted to remain in the EU but the UK is nonetheless pursuing a Brexit. Sean Swan argues that EU membership itself is not the issue. It is instead the UK governmentās reaction to Scottish opposition and its treatment of Scottish democratic will since the Brexit vote that justify those calls
A specific T-cell receptor genotype preference in the immune response to a synthetic Plasmodium falciparum malaria vaccine
Population samples and genotyping technology
The 14th International HLA (human leukocyte antigen) Immunogenetics Workshop (14th-IHIWS) Biostatistics and Anthropology/Human Genetic Diversity project continues the population sampling, genotype data generation, and biostatistic analyses of the 13th International Histocompatibility Workshop Anthropology/Human Genetic Diversity Component, with the overall goal of further characterizing global HLA allele and haplotype diversity and better describing the relationships between major histocompatibility complex diversity, geography, linguistics, and population history. Since the 13th Workshop, new investigators have and continue to be recruited to the project and new high-resolution class I and class II genotype data are being generated for 112 population samples from around the world
