The immune system can distinguish between normal, healthy cells and unhealthy cells by recognizing a variety of danger cues called danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). Cells may be unhealthy because of infection or because of cellular damage caused by non-infectious agents like sunburn or cancer.he immune system can distinguish between normal, healthy cells and unhealthy cells by recognizing a variety of danger cues called danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs).

Time-weighted return. The time-weighted return (TWR) (or true time-weighted rate of return (TWRR)) is a method of calculating investment return. To apply the time-weighted return method, combine the return over sub-periods, by compounding them together, resulting in the overall period return. The rate of return over each different sub-period is weighted according to the duration of the sub-period.
The log return for the year is the sum of the daily log returns. The log return for the year for the S&P is 12.8% (the data are in percent already). We can use the bootstrap to get an idea of the variability of that figure. There are 251 daily returns in the year. One bootstrap sample is 251 randomly sampled daily returns.
