Understanding Driver Agency in RideSharing [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Agency is an important human characteristic that users of automated complex technologies are usually denied. This affects the user's experience leading to decreased satisfaction and productivity. In this paper, we consider the ridesharing context and interviewed 7 drivers to understand the controls that would improve the agency they feel.

Leveraging current insights on IL‐10‐producing dendritic cells for developing effective immunotherapeutic approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In vivo IL‐10 produced by tissue‐resident tolDC is involved in maintaining/inducing tolerance. Depending on the agent used for ex vivo tolDC generation, cells acquire common features but prime T cells towards anergy, FOXP3+ Tregs, or Tr1 cells according to the levels of IL‐10 produced. Ex vivo‐induced tolDC were administered to patients to re‐establish/

Agency in Physics [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
I discuss three aspects of the notion of agency from the standpoint of physics: (i) what makes a physical system an agent; (ii) the reason for agency's time orientation; (iii) the source of the information generated in choosing an action. I observe that agency is the breaking of an approximation under which dynamics appears closed.

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

Adjusting Queries to Statistical Procedures Under Differential Privacy [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
We consider a dataset $S$ held by an agency, and a vector query of interest, $f(S) \in \mathbb{R}^k$, to be posed by an analyst, which contains the information required for certain planned statistical inference. The agency releases the requested vector query with noise that guarantees a given level of Differential Privacy -- DP$(\varepsilon,\delta)$ --

Characterization of fungal carbonyl sulfide hydrolase belonging to clade D β‐carbonic anhydrase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Here, we performed a functional analysis of the fungal enzymes belonging to clade D of the β‐class carbonic anhydrase family (β‐D‐CA). The β‐D‐CAs in the basidiomycete Gloeophyllum trabeum and the ascomycete Trichoderma harzianum showed very low activity in the hydration of CO2 but exhibited high activity in the hydrolysis of carbonyl sulfide (COS ...
