Board Gender Diversity and Environmental Credit Risk in Banking: A Global Study of Bank Governance

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the relationship between board gender diversity and environmental credit risk in the global banking sector. Using a panel dataset of 345 publicly listed banks from 75 countries over the period 2018–2022, we find that greater female representation on bank boards is significantly associated with lower environmental credit

Resolving CYP2D6 Structural Complexity with Long‐Read Sequencing: Implications for Tamoxifen Precision Dosing in Thai Breast Cancer Patients

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6)‐mediated bioactivation of tamoxifen to endoxifen is a key determinant of therapeutic efficacy in estrogen receptor‐positive breast cancer. In Asian populations, the high prevalence of structurally complex CYP2D6 alleles complicates conventional genotyping, limiting accurate genotype–phenotype correlation.
