In From Document to History: Epigraphic Insights into the Greco-Roman World, editors Carlos Noreña and Nikolaos Papazarkadas gather together an exciting set of original studies on Greek and Roman epigraphy, first presented at the Second North American Congress of Greek and Latin Epigraphy (Berkeley 2016). Chapters range chronologically from the sixth century BCE to the fifth century CE, and geographically from Egypt and Asia Minor to the west European continent and British isles. Key themes include Greek and Roman epigraphies of time, space, and public display, with texts featuring individuals and social groups ranging from Roman emperors, imperial elites, and artists to gladiators, immigrants, laborers, and slaves. Several papers highlight the new technologies that are transforming our understanding of ancient inscriptions, and a number of major new texts are published here for the first time.

TOLETUM, das "Netzwerk zur Erforschung der Iberischen Halbinsel in der Antike", legt mit diesem Band erstmals ein deutsch-spanisches Kompendium zur Städteforschung vor. In 36 Beiträgen gewährt eine neue Generation von Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern Einblick in ihre Untersuchungen einer Region des Mittelmeerraums, die wie keine andere in den vergangenen drei Jahrzehnten durch spektakuläre Neufunde auf sich aufmerksam gemacht hat: Das Amphitheater von Corduba, das Theater und Forum von Carthago Nova oder Caesaraugusta, Teile der Stadtanlage von Segobriga und das Senatus consultum de Cn. Pisone patre, die Lex Irnitana - ja über 20.000 Inschriften. Auf der Grundlage eines interdisziplinären und traditionelle Periodisierungen überschreitenden Ansatzes bieten die Analysen von Stadtanlagen wie epigraphischen Monumenten neue Erkenntnisse in die bauliche Ausgestaltung und soziale Organisation der "Lebenswelt Stadt" zwischen Rom und al-Andalus.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) stand at the verge of a transformation. Scores of clinical programs have yielded only a few regulatory approvals, but a wave of technological innovation now empowers us to overcome past technical challenges. This volume focuses on the next generation of ADCs and the innovations that will enable them. The book inspires the future by integrating the field’s history with novel strategies and cutting-edge technologies. While the book primarily addresses ADCs for solid tumors, the last chapter explores the emerging interest in using ADCs to treat other diseases. The therapeutic rationale of ADCs is strong: to direct small molecules to the desired site of action (...
In 1900, for every 1,000 babies born in the United States, 100 would die before their first birthday, often due to infectious diseases. Today, vaccines exist for many viral and bacterial diseases. The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, passed in 1986, was intended to bolster vaccine research and development through the federal coordination of vaccine initiatives and to provide relief to vaccine manufacturers facing financial burdens. The legislation also intended to address concerns about the safety of vaccines by instituting a compensation program, setting up a passive surveillance system for vaccine adverse events, and by providing information to consumers. A key component of the legis...
