The Politics of Pharmaceutical Policy Reform
Brazil is renowned worldwide for its remarkable reforms in pharmaceutical regulation, which have enhanced access to essential medicines while lowering drug costs. This book innovates by analysing the generic drug reform in Brazil, demonstrating that pharmaceutical regulation is only partially influenced by non-state actors. Little is known about the institutional antecedents and policy process…

Analytic Curve Frequency-Sweeping Stability Tests for Systems with Commensura…
In this brief the authors establish a new frequency-sweeping framework to solve the complete stability problem for time-delay systems with commensurate delays. The text describes an analytic curve perspective which allows a deeper understanding of spectral properties focusing on the asymptotic behavior of the characteristic roots located on the imaginary axis as well as on properties invariant …

Analysis of Single-Cell Data: ODE Constrained Mixture Modeling and Approximat…
Carolin Loos introduces two novel approaches for the analysis of single-cell data. Both approaches can be used to study cellular heterogeneity and therefore advance a holistic understanding of biological processes. The first method, ODE constrained mixture modeling, enables the identification of subpopulation structures and sources of variability in single-cell snapshot data. The second method …

Analysis of Deterministic Cyclic Gene Regulatory Network Models with Delays
This brief examines a deterministic, ODE-based model for gene regulatory networks (GRN) that incorporates nonlinearities and time-delayed feedback. An introductory chapter provides some insights into molecular biology and GRNs. The mathematical tools necessary for studying the GRN model are then reviewed, in particular Hill functions and Schwarzian derivatives. One chapter is devoted to the ana…
