Evaluating new malaria vaccine candidates by Noé, A

“…Single cell analyses identified several subpopulations, mutual clonality, and indicated a potential developmental trajectory shared between TRM and TRM-like cells. This thesis demonstrates the potential for using TRM-like cells as a correlate of prime-target induced protection against liver-stage malaria. …”

Combining laser frequency combs and iodine cell calibration techniques for Doppler detection of exoplanets by Cahoy, K., Fischer, D., Spronck, J., Demille, D.

“…We propose a fiber-fed high precision spectrograph design that combines the existing ~5000-6000 A Iodine calibration system with a high-precision Laser Frequency Comb (LFC) system from ~6000-7000 A that just meets the redward side of the Iodine lines. The scientific motivation for such a system includes: a 1000 A span in the red is currently achievable with LFC systems, combining the two calibration methods increases the wavelength range by a factor of two, and moving redward decreases the 'noise' from starspots. …”
