Partial dosage compensation in Strepsiptera, a sister group of beetles. [PDF]
, 2015 Sex chromosomes have evolved independently in many different taxa, and so have mechanisms to compensate for expression differences on sex chromosomes in males and females. Different clades have evolved vastly different ways to achieve dosage compensation,

Pay-performance Sensitivity and Firm Size: Insights From the Mutual Fund Industry [PDF]
, 2010 I examine the ex ante decision to make an agent\u27s pay-performance sensitivity an inverse function of organization size. I focus on mutual funds and their decision to use compensation contracts that reduce the advisor\u27s marginal compensation as the ...

Reproductive compensation [PDF]
Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 2008 AbstractThe reproductive compensation hypothesis says that individuals constrained by ecological or social forces to reproduce with partners they do not prefer compensate for likely offspring viability deficits. The reproductive compensation hypothesis assumes that (i) pathogens and parasites evolve more rapidly than their hosts, (ii) mate preferences ...

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Background The dose‐averaged linear energy transfer (LETD) in proton therapy (PT) has in pre‐clinical studies been linked to the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of protons. Until recently, the most common PT delivery method in prostate cancer has been double‐scattered PT, with LETD only available through dedicated Monte Carlo (MC ...

Adaptive Output Consensus of Heterogeneous Nonlinear Multi-agent Systems: A Distributed Dynamic Compensator Approach [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Distributed dynamic compensators, also known as distributed observer, play a key role in the output consensus problem of heterogeneous nonlinear multi-agent systems. However, most existing distributed dynamic compensators require either the compensators' information to be exchanged through communication networks, or that the controller for each ...

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose Palliative radiotherapy comprises a significant portion of the radiation treatment workload. Volumetric‐modulated arc therapy (VMAT) improves dose conformity and, in conjunction with flattening filter free (FFF) delivery, can decrease treatment times, both of which are desirable in a population with a high probability of retreatment ...

Precarious employment and occupational injuries in the digital age ‒ where should we go from here?
Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment & Health, 2018 There is growing demand for a clearer understanding of whether precarious work is a social determinant of health (1‒5) and whether non-standard workers with less job security are more vulnerable to adverse safety and health outcomes.
