A New Therapeutic Strategy to Overcome Multidrug Resistance by Exploiting Drug-Transporters to Target Untreatable Cancers

We recently have discovered a frontier strategy for overcoming drug resistance mediated by P-glycoprotein (Pgp) in the lysosome. Identifying new targets for resistant cancers are cr more...

Empirical evidence of habits and patterns in public transport use

Demand for public transport systems is determined by high-level strategic decisions (home and work location choices), habits (preferred routes and modes) and real-time response more...

Impact of planned and unplanned incidents on travel time variability

A variety of planned and unplanned incidents contribute to journey time variability. Their expected impact on performance is determined by attributes of the incident (time of occurr more...

How do travellers think about reliability?

There is increasing recognition of the value of reliability in the transport system. Better data availability makes it possible to measure variability and infer its importance throu more...
