Opportunities in Therapeutic mRNA Stabilization: Sequence, Structure, Adjuvants and Vectors

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Current mRNA lipid nanoparticles rely on cold storage, which increases the cost and reduces access to the vaccines. As mRNA expands to other clinical opportunities, better methods to stabilize the medicines during shipping, storage, and delivery are needed.

King and Cochrane: The technological treadmill and racial inequity in US agriculture

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Between 1920 and 1969, the number of Black farmers in the US decreased from 14% of all operators to 4%. Using Martin Luther King Jr.'s critique of agricultural policy and Willard Cochrane's theory of the technological treadmill, we explore how racial discrimination was linked to policies that led to structural change in US agriculture.
