Single Line Drawing Generation via Semantics‐Driven Optimization
We present a method for automatically generating single‐line drawings in vector format, guided by a text prompt or an input image. Our approach leverages score distillation sampling to optimize the parameters of a uniform rational B‐spline (URBS) curve, ensuring that the drawing consists of a single continuous stroke by design.

Schematic summary of the dual‐recombinase lineage tracing strategies to determine whether female germline stem cells (fGSCs) exist and sustain the ovarian follicle pool in adult female mice. Our study concluded that no fGSCs exist and contribute to oocyte regeneration in adult female mice with different tracing systems. ABSTRACT Whether female germline

From Coase to culture? Visible Hands Build Equilibria
Abstract This essay proposes that the classic distinction between firms and markets in Ronald Coase's 1937 paper ‘The nature of the firm’ (Economica, vol. 4, pp. 386–405) be gracefully retired, having been duly celebrated for its field‐launching contribution to organizational economics.

Does nature shape risk preferences? Evidence from Chile, Norway, and Tanzania
Abstract Does exposure to a more risky environment affect risk preferences? Going beyond single‐case study evidence, we report results from five surveys conducted in three countries and link this with administrative data to study whether a link between exposure and preferences is detectable and widespread. We find no evidence for endogenous preferences
