Potentiation of curing by a broad-host-range self-transmissible vector for displacing resistance plasmids to tackle AMR.
Plasmids are potent vehicles for spread of antibiotic resistance genes in bacterial populations and often persist in the absence of selection due to efficient maintenance mechanisms.We previously constructed non-conjugative high copy number plasmid vectors that efficiently displace stable plasmids from enteric bacteria in a laboratory context by bl
Multiple Classifier Fusion and Optimization for Automatic Focal Cortical Dysplasia Detection on Magnetic Resonance Images
In magnetic resonance (MR) images, detection of focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) lesion as a main pathological cue of epilepsy is challenging because of the variability in the presentation of FCD lesions.Existing algorithms appear to have sufficient sensitivity in detecting lesions but also generate large numbers of false-positive (FP) results.In thi
