Monetary policy and inequality by Andersen, AL, Johannesen, N, Jørgensen, M, Peydró, J

“…We use administrative household-level data covering the entire population in Denmark over the period 1987 to 2014 and exploit a long-standing currency peg as a source of exogenous variation in monetary policy. We find that gains from softer monetary policy in terms of income, wealth, and consumption are monotonically increasing in ex ante income. …”

Exon skipping is correlated with exon circularization by Kelly, S, Greenman, C, Cook, PR, Papantonis, A

“…Here, we stimulated primary human endothelial cells with tumor necrosis factor α or tumor growth factor β, purified RNA, generated > 2.4 billion RNA-seq reads, and used a custom pipeline to characterize circular RNAs derived from coding exons. We find that circularization of exons is widespread and correlates with exon skipping, a feature that adds considerably to the regulatory complexity of the human transcriptome.…”

Policy complexity suppresses dopamine responses by Gershman, SJ, Lak, A

Nietzsche and the significance of genealogy by Prescott-Couch, A

“…On this view, Nietzsche provides a ‘deconstructive genealogy’ that indicates whether and where we should expect to find unity in our current moral practices. Moreover, Nietzsche’s history contributes to a critique of contemporary morality because it reveals that morality is unlikely to have the kind of unity required by many of its defenders. …”

Should investors care where private equity managers went to school? by Fuchs, F, Füss, R, Jenkinson, T, Morkoetter, S

“…In particular, we explore three potential channels of how their educational background may influence fund performance: (i) institutional quality, (ii) individual performance, and (iii) academic variety. We find that a combination of top-tier education and work experience identifies individual performance in the management team. …”

Robust Control For Underwater Vehicle Systems With Time Delays by Triantafyllou, Michael S ., Grosenbaugh, Mark A.

“…The methodology is applicable to undenvater vehicle systems that exhibit time delays, including tethered vehicles that are positioned through the movements of a surface ship and autonomous vehicles that are controlled through an acoustic link. An example, using full-scale data from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution’s tethered vehicle ARGO, demonstrates the developments.…”

Lights and sounds : effects of congruence and musical sophistication on auditory and visual perception by Aw, Justus Jinyue

“…Research has also shown that musical training improves pitch perception, and the current research was carried out to establish if there is a link between the two. A measure of musical sophistication was also used in place of time spent taking music lessons; this was done in order to capture other elements that encapsulated engagement with music beyond formal training and practice. …”
