pipeline programs

Carrasco GA.
GSID: HmcejRyYWuUJ
CM Collins, GA Carrasco, OJ Lopez - Medical Science Educator, 2019 - Springer

… To increase diversity in the physician workforce, medical pipeline programs are essential to provide early exposure to the biomedical sciences to students from backgrounds that are traditionally underrepresented in medicine (URM) [4, 5]. The Premedical Urban Leadership …

A duality principle for the multi-block entanglement entropy of free fermion systems.

Scientific reports

Carrasco JA, Finkel F, González-López A, Tempesta P.
PMID: 28894105
Sci Rep. 2017 Sep 11;7(1):11206. doi: 10.1038/s41598-017-09550-1.

The analysis of the entanglement entropy of a subsystem of a one-dimensional quantum system is a powerful tool for unravelling its critical nature. For instance, the scaling behaviour of the entanglement entropy determines the central charge of the associated...

Soc Sci Med. 2016 Jun;159:127-31. doi: 10.1016/j.socscimed.2016.05.012. Epub 2016 May 07.

Among various social factors associated with health behavior and disease, social cohesion has not captured the imagination of public health researchers as much as social capital as evidenced by the subsuming of social cohesion into social capital and the...

VUV photochemistry simulation of planetary upper atmosphere using synchrotron radiation.

Journal of synchrotron radiation

Carrasco N, Giuliani A, Correia JJ, Cernogora G.
PMID: 23765300

The coupling of a gas reactor, named APSIS, with a vacuum-ultraviolet (VUV) beamline at the SOLEIL synchrotron radiation facility, for a photochemistry study of gas mixtures, is reported. The reactor may be irradiated windowless with gas pressures up to...

Time to Empower Release of Insects Carrying a Dominant Lethal and Wolbachia Against Zika.

Open forum infectious diseases

Dickens BL, Yang J, Cook AR, Carrasco LR.
PMID: 27419175
Open Forum Infect Dis. 2016 May 19;3(2):ofw103. doi: 10.1093/ofid/ofw103. eCollection 2016 Apr.

RIDL (release of insects with dominant lethality) and Wolbachia are 2 potentially powerful tools in the fight against Zika, but their technological advancement is being hampered by policy barriers. In this study, we discuss what could be done to...

[Statistical approaches to evaluate agreement].

Medicina clinica

Carrasco JL, Jover L.
PMID: 14980157
Med Clin (Barc). 2004;122:28-34. doi: 10.1157/13057543.

Reliability and agreement of measurement methods is a fundamental issue in health sciences which is not usually borne in mind. In this document the connotations of using measurement methods with error and the switchability among measurements from methods which...

Synthesis of selenium-derivatized cytidine and oligonucleotides for X-ray crystallography using MAD.

Organic letters

Buzin Y, Carrasco N, Huang Z.
PMID: 15040732
Org Lett. 2004 Apr 01;6(7):1099-102. doi: 10.1021/ol0365077.

Synthesis of the novel 2'-Se-cytidine phosphoramidite was achieved via transformation of the uridine analogue to the cytidine derivative in high yield. This 2'-Se-cytidine phosphoramidite was used to synthesize selenium-derivatized DNA and RNA oligonucleotides for X-ray crystallography using MAD. The...

Trypanosoma cruzi IIc: phylogenetic and phylogeographic insights from sequence and microsatellite analysis and potential impact on emergent Chagas disease.

PLoS neglected tropical diseases

Llewellyn MS, Lewis MD, Acosta N, Yeo M, Carrasco HJ, Segovia M, Vargas J, Torrico F, Miles MA, Gaunt MW.
PMID: 19721699
PLoS Negl Trop Dis. 2009 Sep 01;3(9):e510. doi: 10.1371/journal.pntd.0000510.

Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas disease, is highly genetically diverse. Numerous lines of evidence point to the existence of six stable genetic lineages or DTUs: TcI, TcIIa, TcIIb, TcIIc, TcIId, and TcIIe. Molecular dating suggests that T....

Multiple myeloma is characterized by frequent chromosomal alterations. Deletion of chr 13, especially band 13q14, is commonly observed in early stages of MM, suggesting the presence of tumor suppressor genes within this region. Here, we functionally validate the role...
