Intensified distortion: investment decisions with endogenous contracts and time inconsistency by Li, Yanzhao, Guo, Ju-e, Li, Yongwu, Zhang, Jinggong

“…Yet evidences from behavioral economics and neuroeconomics suggest that decision makers are impatient with short-term choices, but patient with long-term choices. Using quasi-hyperbolic discounting and real options agency framework, we investigate the effect of this time-vary impatience, i.e., time-inconsistent preference, on compensation contracts and investment triggers. …”

The influence of additives on the delivery of paclitaxel from bioresorbable PLGA films by Huang, Charlotte Liwen.

“…The hydration of PLGA films played an important role in influencing the rate of hydrolytic degradation and drug release behavior. The incorporation of long chain additives with PLGA resulted in large phase-separated domains which gave rise to large pores, high mass loss and high initial burst release of paclitaxel from the dissolution and leaching of additives upon hydration. …”
