Bone Reports, 3, 67-75. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bonr.2015.10.001

Osteoporosis is clinically assessed from bone mineral density measurements using dual energy X-ray absorption (DXA). However, these measurements do not always provide an accurate fracture prediction, arguably because DXA does not grapple with 'bone q...

Analogue peptides for the immunotherapy of human acute myeloid leukemia (2015)
Journal Article

The use of peptide vaccines, enhanced by adjuvants, has shown some efficacy in clinical trials. However, responses are often short-lived and rarely induce notable memory responses. The reason is that self-antigens have already been presented to the i... Read More about Analogue peptides for the immunotherapy of human acute myeloid leukemia.
