Background: Cleft lip with/without palate (CL/P) patients require multiple interdisciplinary procedures at different phases of their life. CL/P patients have a high burden of care that has financial repercussion, especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Lowering preventable diseases such as caries can mitigate this challenge.

While neoblasts are extensively characterized in the free-living planarian , and similar stem cells have been characterized in the trematode , their identification and characterization in cestodes is just emerging. Since stem cells are generally affected by irradiation, in this work we used this experimental approach to study the stem cells of the model cestode .

While providing valuable products, and despite Best Available Techniques (BAT) being used, managing wastewater effectively remains a key area for developing technologies and alternatives for environmental protection. Activated sludge (AS) systems are commonly used for effluent treatment, where microorganisms composition influences reactor efficiency.

The diversity of modeling tools currently available in Computational Chemistry requires the development of flexible analysis tools that can adapt to different systems and output formats. As a contribution to this need, we report the implementation of goChem, a versatile open-source library for multiscale analysis of computational chemistry data.
