Writing the history of one’s hometown is no small feat, even after living and studying its history for 25 years. Aachen became my home in October 1999, when I was invited to teach at RWTH-Aachen University during my PhD studies. The university was already an esteemed institution known for business, engineering, and medicine. Working in the social and economic history department, alongside German colleagues, provided an eye-opening contrast to my experiences at British universities.

The HuBMAP Data Portal (https://portal.hubmapconsortium.org) serves experimental datasets and supports data processing, search, filtering, and visualization. The Human Reference Atlas (HRA) Portal (https://humanatlas.io) provides open access to atlas data, code, procedures, and instructional materials.

Thus, it would be highly advantageous to develop a form of treatment that allows higher doses of drugs to be delivered to tumors without increasing the amount of drug absorbed by healthy tissues.

Philip W. Blood, Birds of Prey is an extraordinary piece of work using groundbreaking research to produce an original book on the Second World War. Not an easy feat. Was this a story you discovered, or one you always wanted to tell? The book is both a narrative I was compelled to share and a journey of discovery. It originated from my PhD research. In 1997, I unearthed a small collection of Luftwaffe documents from the military archive in Freiburg, Germany.

How did the Ordinary German Soldier Behave During the War and the Holocaust? In 1997, I unearthed the war diaries of two Luftwaffe security battalions from the years 1942 to 1944. These diaries meticulously chronicled the battalion, company, platoon, and squad level operations, detailing their anti-partisan actions, the hunting and killing of Jews, and their encounters with the largest Soviet offensive in 1944.
