Abstract
Input from QCD and string theory is used in order to elucidate basic features of the string theory dual of QCD, It is argued that the relevant string theory is a five‐dimensional version of the type‐0 superstring. The vacuum solution is asymptotically AdS~5~, and the geometry near the boundary is stringy. The structure of YM perturbation theory however emerges near the boundary. In the IR, the theory is argued to be well‐approximated by a two‐derivative truncation that takes into account strong coupling effects. This explains the success of previously proposed five‐dimensional Eistein‐dilaton gravity with an appropriate potential to describe salient features of the strong YM dynamics.

## Abstract In this note we describe how 𝒩 = 1 SQCD‐like theories with a large number of flavors can be given a dual description in terms of a string background containing a large number of additional D5‐branes. The dual geometries account for the backreaction of the additional branes: they depend
## Abstract Analytical biochemistry and synthetic peptide based chemistry have helped to reveal the pivotal role that peptides play in determining the specificity, magnitude and quality of both humoral (antibody) and cellular (cytotoxic and helper T cell) immune responses. In addition, peptide base
