Evaluating an e-learning program to strengthen the capacity of humanitarian workers in the MENA region: the Humanitarian Leadership Diploma
Abstract Background The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is consistently plagued with humanitarian crises while having little response capacity.Despite their obvious growing need, there exist limited educational opportunities for humanitarian workers to develop their capacity in humanitarian topics.The present study evaluates an online tr
Clinical requirements for extracellular vesicle assays
The scientific and clinical interest in extracellular vesicles (EV) has grown exponentially during the past 15 years.As most research indicates that EVs can be utilised in diagnostics, prognostics and therapeutics, we may be on the brink of establishing the clinical utility of EV measurement, but how can we make this a reality? If we are to introdu
Investigation of Thermophysical Properties and Thermal Performance and Pressure Drop of of Nanofluid including Functionalized Graphene with Polyvinyl Alcohol
The lack of an appropriate dispersibility of Graphene Nanoplatelets (GNP) in different hydrophilic and hydrophobic media and their poor interaction to form bundles is one of the most important problems of this material.Therefore, ASPARAGUS in the present study, in order to perform covalent functionalization of GNP as well as increase the dispersibi
