Cerebral organoids: a promising model in cellular technologies by T. A. Shnaider

“…However, significant differences in the brain structure compared to other animals do not allow considering all aspects of the human brain formation, which could play the main role in the development of unique cognitive abilities for human. Four years ago, Lancaster’s group elaborated human pluripotent stem cell-derived three-dimensional cerebral organoid technology, which opened a unique opportunity for researchers to model early stages of human neurogenesis in vitro. …”

A Study of the anthrax transmission model in herbivorous animals involving vaccination and harvesting by Anita Triska, Mona Zevika

“…The SVICA deterministic model was developed to better understand the transmission of anthrax by categorizing the population into susceptible, vaccinated, and infected animals, as well as carcasses and anthrax spores. The basic reproduction number (R0) is calculated using the NGM method to determine the outbreak threshold in a population. …”
