Airway responsiveness to methacholine and incidence of COPD: an international prospective cohort study (Publications)
BACKGROUND: It has been debated, but not yet established, whether increased airway responsiveness can predict COPD. Recognising this link may help in identifying subjects at risk. OBJECTIVE: We studie
Total synthesis and biological investigation of (-)-artemisinin: the antimalarial activity of artemisinin is not stereospecific (Publications)
Here, we describe an efficient and diversity oriented entry to both (-)-artemisinin (1) and to its natural antipode (+)-artemisinin starting from commercially and readily available S-(+)- and R-(-)-ci
Telemedicine for health issues while abroad: interest and willingness to pay among travellers prior to departure (Publications)
Background: Telemedicine is emerging as a useful tool to provide expert medical advice to individuals facing health issues while travelling in remote areas. Before embarking on the development of a te
Treemmer: a tool to reduce large phylogenetic datasets with minimal loss of diversity (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Large sequence datasets are difficult to visualize and handle. Additionally, they often do not represent a random subset of the natural diversity, but the result of uncoordinated and conve
Analysis of clinical drug-drug interaction data to predict uncharacterized interaction magnitudes between antiretroviral drugs and co-medications (Publications)
Despite their high potential for drug-drug-interactions (DDI), clinical DDI studies of antiretroviral drugs (ARVs) are often lacking, because the full range of potential interactions cannot feasibly o
