Parameter estimation of manipulator robot dynamics
We need better methods of dynamic parameter estimation because robots are becoming more complex and their interactions with the unmodeled world are becoming more frequent. These methods should be fast, reliable, and easily adaptable to various classes of robots. Here, we design and build a …

Streptococcus pyogenes - a manipulator of human defences
Streptococcus pyogenes is a major human pathogen with more than 500 000 casualties annually of which at least 163 000 are due to invasive infections. The remainder is due to post-streptococcal complications with rheu¬matic heart disease constituting the majority. S. pyogenes also causes milder …
