FDA Misses Deadline To Ban Cancerous Ingredients In Hair Relaxers Commonly Used By Black Women | Atlanta Daily World
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) failed to meet its own deadline for banning formaldehyde in hair-straightening products, raising concerns about the agency’s commitment to protecting public health. The proposed ban, which was slated to take effect in April, has yet to be implemented, leaving many questioning the FDA’s inaction. According to NBC News, the … Continued

In one way Harley-Davidson jeans are the exact opposite of Levi's jeans. The watch pocket, commonly used for change for bridge tolls, is on the left, leaving the rider's right hand--their throttle hand--free.

Semi-Automated Modular Formal Verification of Critical Software: Liveness and Completeness Thresholds
In this dissertation we describe two contributions to the state of the art in reasoning about liveness and safety, respectively. Programs for multiprocessor machines commonly perform busy waiting for synchronization. We propose the first separation logic for modularly verifying termination of such programs under fair scheduling. Our logic requires the proof author to associate a ghost signal with each busy-waiting loop and allows such loops to iterate while their corresponding signal $s$ is n…

An Executable Specification of Oncology Dose-Escalation Protocols with Prolog
We present, as a pure Prolog program, the first executable specification of the 3 + 3 dose-escalation protocol commonly used in early-phase oncology drug development. In this program, the imperative operations of the protocol emerge as consequences of clinically meaningful anticipatory-regret scenarios that are declared as CLP(Z) constraints. This 'regret-constrained' (RC) specification yields a robust formulation which can be used to prove clinically meaningful safety and liveness properties o…

Field Redefinitions and Infinite Field Anomalous Dimensions
Field redefinitions are commonly used to reduce the number of operators in the Lagrangian by removing redundant operators and transforming to a minimal operator basis. We give a general argument that such field redefinitions, while leaving the $S$-matrix invariant and consequently finite, lead not only to infinite Green's functions, but also to infinite field anomalous dimensions $γ_ϕ$. These divergences cannot be removed by counterterms without reintroducing redundant operators.

Model Consistency for Mechanical Design: Bridging Lumped and Distributed Parameter Models with A Priori Guarantees
Engineering design often involves representation in at least two levels of abstraction: the system-level, represented by lumped parameter models (LPMs), and the geometric-level, represented by distributed parameter models (DPMs). Functional design innovation commonly occurs at the system-level, followed by a geometric-level realization of functional LPM components. However, comparing these two levels in terms of behavioral outcomes can be challenging and time-consuming, leading to delays in des…

Multiphase Field Model of Cells on a Substrate
Multiphase field models have emerged as an important computational tool for understanding biological tissue while resolving single-cell properties. While they have successfully reproduced many experimentally observed behaviors of living tissue, the theoretical underpinnings have not been fully explored. We show that a two-dimensional version of the model, which is commonly employed to study tissue monolayers, can be derived from a three-dimensional version in the presence of a substrate. We als…
