Galloping inflation
Galloping inflation is double-digit annual inflation, roughly 10 to just under 100 percent a year, that distorts contracts and expectations but falls short of hyperinflation.

Galloway-Mowat syndrome
Galloway-Mowat syndrome, also known as GAMOS, is a rare genetic multisystem disorder marked by progressive microcephaly, developmental delay, brain atrophy, and often early-onset steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome.

GalNAc conjugate delivery
GalNAc conjugate delivery is a drug-delivery strategy that attaches N-acetylgalactosamine sugar to siRNA or antisense oligonucleotides, letting hepatocytes take them up via the ASGPR receptor.
GalNAc-siRNA conjugate
A GalNAc-siRNA conjugate is a small interfering RNA linked to a GalNAc sugar cluster that delivers gene silencing to liver hepatocytes, first approved as givosiran in 2019.
GalNAc-siRNA conjugate delivery
GalNAc-siRNA conjugate delivery is a technology linking small interfering RNA to GalNAc, a sugar whose hepatocyte receptor concentrates it in the liver, the standard for liver-targeted RNAi therapeutics since givosiran's 2019 approval.
GALNS
GALNS, galactosamine (N-acetyl)-6-sulfatase gene at 16q24.3, encodes a lysosomal enzyme degrading keratan and chondroitin-6-sulfate; biallelic variants cause MPS IVA, Morquio A syndrome, with 446 known variants.
Galo Plaza
Galo Plaza, also known as Galo Plaza Lasso, was an Ecuadorian politician and diplomat who served as President of Ecuador from 1948 to 1952 and as Secretary General of the Organization of American States.
Galois (lunar crater)
Galois (lunar crater) is a large impact crater on the Moon, named after Évariste Galois. It measures 231.97 km across and lies in the lunar far side's southern hemisphere.
Galois cohomology
Galois cohomology is the cohomology theory of Galois groups, the right derived functors of the invariants functor, central to class field theory, the Brauer group, and Wiles's proof of Fermat's last theorem.
Galois connection
A Galois connection, also known as a Galois correspondence, is a pair of monotone maps between partially ordered sets where f(p) ≤ q holds exactly when p ≤ g(q), named for Évariste Galois.
Galois cover
A Galois cover is a cover of curves or schemes whose function field extension is a Galois extension, equivalently one with a transitive group of deck transformations.
Galois extension
A Galois extension is an algebraic field extension that is both normal and separable, equivalently the splitting field of a separable polynomial over the base field.
Galois group
A Galois group is the group of automorphisms of a field extension fixing the base field, introduced by Évariste Galois to study when equations are solvable by radicals.
Galois module
A Galois module, also known as a Galois representation, is an abelian group with a compatible action of a Galois group; the term also names the theory of rings of integers.
Galois representation
A Galois representation is a continuous homomorphism from the absolute Galois group of a field to invertible matrices, central to Wiles's proof of Fermat's last theorem.
Galois theory
Galois theory is the branch of algebra, created by Évariste Galois, that associates to each field extension a Galois group and proves that general polynomial equations of degree 5 and higher cannot be solved by radicals.
