https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seroconversion | In immunology, seroconversion is the development of specific antibodies in the blood serum as a result of infection or immunization, including vaccination. During infection or immunization, antigens enter the blood, and the immune system begins to produce antibodies in response. Before seroconversion, the antigen itsel... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logics%20for%20computability | Logics for computability are formulations of logic which
capture some aspect of computability as a basic notion. This usually involves a mix
of special logical connectives as well as semantics which explains how the logic is to be interpreted in a computational way.
Probably the first formal treatment of logic for com... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theorem%20of%20absolute%20purity | In algebraic geometry, the theorem of absolute (cohomological) purity is an important theorem in the theory of étale cohomology. It states: given
a regular scheme X over some base scheme,
a closed immersion of a regular scheme of pure codimension r,
an integer n that is invertible on the base scheme,
a locally consta... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep%20cycle | The sleep cycle is an oscillation between the slow-wave and REM (paradoxical) phases of sleep. It is sometimes called the ultradian sleep cycle, sleep–dream cycle, or REM-NREM cycle, to distinguish it from the circadian alternation between sleep and wakefulness. In humans, this cycle takes 70 to 110 minutes (90 ± 20 mi... |
