Clinical metagenomics: ethical issues by Johnson, T, Jamrozik, E, Ramachandran, P, Johnson, S

“…In this paper, we present three use cases that draw on existing reports: one involving a patient in intensive care with encephalitis of unknown aetiology, another case with likely infection with drugresistant K. pneumoniae and an incidental finding of unknown relevance, and a final case situated in an unexplained outbreak of acute hepatitis in children, with severe outcomes due to co-infection. …”

Underdetermination in classic and modern tests of general relativity by Wolf, W, Sanchioni, M, Read, J

“…Thus, (a) issues of underdetermination in the context of GR loom much larger than one might have thought, and (b) given this, one has to think more carefully about what exactly such tests in fact are testing.…”

Gender gaps and the structure of local labor markets by Petrongolo, B, Ronchi, M

“…We finally turn to currently debated causes of remaining gender gaps and discuss existing evidence on labor market consequences of women’s heavier caring responsibilities in the household. In particular, we highlight sharp gender differences in commuting behavior and discuss how women’s stronger distaste for commuting time may feed into gender pay gaps.…”

Third harmonic generation from mid-IR to near-IR regions in a phase-matched silicon-silicon-nanocrystal hybrid plasmonic waveguide by Huang, Tianye, Sun, Yunxu, Wu, Tingting, Shum, Perry Ping, Shao, Xuguang

“…The required modal phase-matching condition (PMC) between the 0-th mode at fundamental wave (FW) and the 2-nd mode at third harmonic (TH) is achieved by carefully designing the waveguide geometry. Benefiting from the hybridized surface plasmon polariton (SPP) nature of the two guided modes, the SSHPW is capable of achieving both high THG nonlinear coefficient I6 and reasonable linear propagation loss, thereby resulting in large figure-of-merits (FOMs) for both FW and TH. …”

The pig story ''tiboi sakkoko'' : storytelling of kinship, memories of the past, and rights to plots of ancestral land in Mentawai by Tulius, Juniator

“…As families do not preserve their culture and traditions in written form, storytellers of kin-groups have narrated the pig story from generation to generation so as to preserve it carefully. In the course of time, storytellers establish particular ways of telling their stories so as to remember the content and plot of the stories easily. …”
