The FTAA and the Location of FDI? [PDF]
The role of regional integration agreements (RIAs) as a determinant of the location of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has become an increasingly relevant issue for emerging economies. While the concerns regarding the impact of RIAs on FDI for countries in Latin America may be related to a number of RIA initiatives of different types (sub regional ...

FTAA: What's in It for the South? [PDF]
Not everyone in the Americas thinks that negotiating an FTAA is desirable. Some argue that the timing of the negotiations is being set by the agenda of the developed countries, particularly the US, and not that of the rest of the region. Others say that negotiating tariff reductions will do little to increase exports.

Thiophene-Based Ligands: Design, Synthesis and Their Utilization for Optical Assignment of Polymorphic-Disease-Associated Protein Aggregates. [PDF]
Conformation‐sensitive thiophene‐based ligands have emerged as a class of molecular tools for efficient optical imaging of disease‐associated protein aggregates. This review summarizes the design and chemical evolution of thiophene‐based ligands, as well as describes how this class of ligands has been used for fluorescent assignment of polymorphic ...

Thiophene-Based Ligands for Histological Multiplex Spectral Detection of Distinct Protein Aggregates in Alzheimer's Disease. [PDF]
Multiple colors. A palette of fluorescent donor‐acceptor‐donor thiophene‐based ligands with distinct photo‐physical properties was synthesized. Ligands with specific chemical composition displayed selectivity towards distinct protein aggregates in tissue sections with Alzheimer's disease pathology and by applying different combination of ligands ...

The Uppsala APP Mutation Promotes Wild-Type Amyloid-β Aggregation and Deposition In Vivo. [PDF]
We investigated in vivo cross‐seeding of amyloid‐β (Aβ) isoforms in transgenic mice co‐expressing wild‐typeAβ and the Uppsala‐mutant Aβ variant (AβUpp), lacking six central residues. Weleveraged MALDI‐MS imaging and hyperspectral microscopy to follow spatio‐temporalAβ deposition.

ConvCGP: A convolutional neural network to predict genetic values of agronomic traits from compressed genome-wide polymorphisms. [PDF]
Abstract The growing size of genome‐wide polymorphism data in animal and plant breeding has raised concerns regarding computational load and time, particularly when predicting genetic values for target traits using genomic prediction. Several deep learning and conventional methods, including dimensionality reduction techniques such as principal ...
