Plerixafor, a reversible CXCR4 antagonist, significantly increases the yield of CD34 + peripheral blood cells in randomized studies, thereby enabling more patients to proceed to autologous transplant.

The author presents a rapidly convergent algorithm to solve the general portfolio problem of maximizing concave utility functions subject to linear constraints. The algorithm is based on an iterative ...

Only recently, progress has been made in obtaining o(log (rank))-competitive algorithms for the matroid secretary problem. More precisely, Chakraborty and Lachish ...

Researchers at the University of California San Diego have developed a simple yet powerful method to characterize lithium metal battery performance with the help of a widely used imaging tool: ...
