Given that breathing is one of the most fundamental physiological functions, there is an
urgent need to broaden our understanding of the fluid dynamics that governs it. There would …

Latent tuberculosis infection was the term traditionally used to indicate tuberculosis (TB)
infection. This term was used to define “a state of persistent immune response to stimulation …

From Chlamydia (1) to malaria (2) to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2
