Circular Transitions in Healthcare Waste Management in Vietnam: An Institutional Perspective

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACTHealthcare waste management (HCWM) is a growing environmental and public health concern. This study explores how the institutional pressures that shape HCWM practices evolve toward circularity through coercive, normative, and mimetic isomorphisms and how these mechanisms influence organisational behaviour in Vietnam, a complex, highly regulated

Learning sparse mixture‐of‐experts generalized linear models in ultrahigh dimensions

Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Motivated by the challenges of heterogeneity and high dimensionality in the analysis of modern data, we investigate continuous regularization methods for learning sparse mixture‐of‐experts generalized linear models (MoE‐GLM). Although there are foundational results about regularized estimators in a broad class of regression models including ...

Towards a Biodiversity Positive Business Strategy: The MCRV (Monitoring, Conserving, Restoring, Valorizing) Framework

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite mounting regulatory pressure and growing scientific consensus on biodiversity loss, most corporate action remains reactive, fragmented, and strategically peripheral. Existing frameworks address what firms should report rather than how they can build the organizational capabilities required to act strategically.

Membrane lipid metabolism as a regulatory frontier in neural crest biology: Roles for sphingolipids, cholesterol, and lipid rafts

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are multipotent, migratory stem‐like cells essential for vertebrate development that contribute broadly to many tissues including the craniofacial skeleton, peripheral nervous system, and pigment‐producing cells. Their development progresses through phases of induction, specification, delamination, migration, and ...
