“Tragic,” “Torment,” and “Torture”: Leadership as Fertile Ground for Women's Organizational Misogyny

Gender, Work &Organization, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This feminist study explores women's hostilities toward women in UK leadership as organizational misogyny. Organizations are mostly silent about misogyny, and gender studies have yet to empirically interrogate organizational misogyny and expose it as a critical method of women's oppression. Here, we explore women's organizational misogyny (WOM)

The Electrochemical and Statistical Evaluation of Isolation of Mellitin and Apamin from Honey Bee (Apis Mellifera) Venom

International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2015
We present in this manuscript for the first time the electrochemical and statistical evaluation of FPLC isolation of mellitin and apamin from honey bee (Apis mellifera) venom. Venoms are extremely complex blends of diverse substances that target a myriad

From biology to biotechnology: Host‐regulation factors from parasitoid wasps are a source of bioactive molecules with translational potential

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Parasitoid wasps deploy maternal and embryonic factors to reprogramme host physiology. Venom, calyx fluid, polydnaviruses, teratocytes and larval secretions act in a coordinated, compartmentalised manner. Host‐regulation factors are promising sources of insecticidal, antimicrobial and bioinspired translational molecules.

Asymmetric Regulatory Embeddedness and Post‐Brexit Governance: Explaining Adaptive Convergence in the United Kingdom

JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Why has the United Kingdom repeatedly restored substantive compatibility with European Union (EU) regulatory norms despite formal withdrawal? This article introduces the concept of asymmetric regulatory embeddedness (ARE) to explain post‐membership governance in highly integrated sectors. ARE captures the structural condition in which a former

Erythrocyte ‘Feierzeit’ reaction: Novel filamentous and vesicular response to n‐butyl acetate

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Human erythrocytes (red blood cells; RBCs) undergo spontaneous disassembly after several hours of exposure to n‐butyl acetate (nBA). Images of the morphological changes were captured in time‐lapse sequences using differential interference contrast (DIC) light microscopy.
