Abstract:
High grade gliomas remain a devastating disease, for which a curative therapy is virtually absent. The high medical need is unmet by novel treatment strategies and advances in chemo-and radiotherapy. Patients diagnosed for GBM face a median survival of 15 months after maximal standard-of-care therapy, and relapse is often observed due to micro-metastasis in the direct environment of resection. In part, current treatment modalities such as chemo-and immunotherapy are hampered in their efficacy due to the specialized TME. This area is adequately equipped to withstand the cytotoxic attack of chem

Abstract:
Oil and gas industry operations place large pressures on the local environment and inhabitants. However, the continued rise in the demand for useable energy and resources has resulted in further production pressures for oil and gas companies. Meeting these demands comes with high risks and costs to both society and the environment. Oil and gas companies are thus faced with the challenge of meeting the world’s expanding energy demands while minimizing the negative externalities associated with these operations. Many of the risks these corporations face are site specific, requiring detailed back

Abstract:
<p> The nation&rsquo;s gender leadership gap, or the disproportionate number of men in top leadership positions versus women, has prevailed throughout the history of public education (Superville, 2016; Rosenberg, 2017). Despite the fact that 76% of America&rsquo;s educators were women, only 27% of the nation&rsquo;s school superintendents were female (U.S. Department of Education, 2016; Rosenberg, 2017). Thus, men have continued to dominate the top-level leadership positions within the educational arena (Superville, 2016). The purpose of this study was to investigate the gender leadership gap
