Local climate action from the middle-out: the social potential of craft guilds to facilitate low-carbon installations in Germany by Wehden, S, Janda, KB, Jansen, J, Creutzig, F

“…Situated between policymaking and on-the-ground installation, guilds have unique agency and capacity qualities deriving from preferential access to the local implementers of low-carbon transitions and legal commissions with critical tasks including training, informing, and associating installers. However, we find that guilds suffer from resource constraints, membership declines, and a lack of deliberate activation. …”

Interferon-α promotes HLA-B-restricted presentation of conventional and alternative antigens in human pancreatic β-cells by Carré, A, Samassa, F, Zhou, Z, Perez-Hernandez, J, Lekka, C, Manganaro, A, Oshima, M, Liao, H, Parker, R, Nicastri, A, Brandao, B, Colli, ML, Eizirik, DL, Aluri, J, Patel, D, Göransson, M, Burgos Morales, O, Anderson, A, Landry, L, Kobaisi, F, Scharfmann, R, Marselli, L, Marchetti, P, You, S, Ternette, N

“…Here we characterize the HLA-I antigen presentation in resting and IFN-α-exposed β-cells and find that IFN-α increases HLA-I expression and expands peptide repertoire to those derived from alternative mRNA splicing, protein cis-splicing and post-translational modifications. …”

Experimentation in wicked situations: how activists construct pragmatic action frames by Savaget, P, Roulet, T, Ventresca, M

“…This pragmatic action frame prompts them to initiate pilot experiments that involve trial-and-error and collective learning, and that sometimes scaffold into cumulative small wins. Reflecting on our findings, we build a model of how pragmatic action frames fuel distributed possibilities to experiment in wicked situations. …”
