Vulnerability assessment tools for infectious threats and antimicrobial resistance: a scoping review protocol by Tamara Giles-Vernick, Maren Jeleff, Lisa Lehner, Michel L.A. Dückers, A. David Napier, Elena Jirovsky, Ruth Kutalek

“…Given the broad nature of vulnerability, we aim to allocate studies discerning the process of identifying vulnerable or at-risk groups during a crisis, instead of studies taking vulnerability only as a starting point. Because considerable research has been conducted on vulnerability, disasters and climate change, we will also assemble tools developed from these fields. …”

Révision de l’espèce Homo erectus (Dubois, 1893) by Valéry Zeitoun

“…Ignoring which of the most discriminant parameters allow the reconstruction of phylogeny, all the measurements existing between every reference points are taken into account. Thus each measure can be connected to another (if it cannot, then the “false” precision of some craniometric points should be questioned). …”
