This book presents novel statistics methods and reproducible software that helps to solve challenging problems in biomedicine. Specifically, it consists of a collection of 11 chapters contributed by some of the leading experts in the mathematical and statistical field which address new challenges in very disparate biomedical areas, such as genomics, cancer, circadian biology, microbiome, mental disorders, and more. The mathematical rigor is written in a user-friendly way to serve a general biomedical audience ranging from trainees or students to doctors, as well as scientific researchers, university departments, and PhD students.
Citizen science, the active participation of the public in scientific research projects, is a rapidly expanding field in open science and open innovation. It provides an integrated model of public knowledge production and engagement with science. As a growing worldwide phenomenon, it is invigorated by evolving new technologies that connect people easily and effectively with the scientific community. Catalysed by citizens’ wishes to be actively involved in scientific processes, as a result of recent societal trends, it also offers contributions to the rise in tertiary education. In addition, citizen science provides a valuable tool for citizens to play a more active role in sustainable deve...

We live in an age of global migration. The number of immigrants worldwide is large and growing. At the same time, public and political reactions against immigrants have grown in the US, the UK, Canada, and other traditional and non-traditional receiving nations. In response to this trend, this book assembles an interdisciplinary group of scholars to better understand two dimensions of contemporary immigration policy – a growing enforcement and restriction regime in receiving nations, and the subsequent effects on sending nations. It begins with three background chapters on immigration politics and policies in the United States, Europe, and Mexico. This is followed by eleven chapters about ...
