Involvement of miRNAs in the differentiation of human glioblastoma multiforme stem-like cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM)-initiating cells (GICs) represent a tumor subpopulation with neural stem cell-like properties that is responsible for the development, progression and therapeutic resistance of human GBM. We have recently shown that blockade

Does the CEO's Attention Affect How Well the Firm Performs Environmentally?

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores whether CEOs' environmental attention (CEA) enhances firms' environmental performance. Drawing on attention‐based and upper echelons theories, which emphasize that executives' cognitive focus shapes organizational outcomes, we argue that CEOs who devote greater attention to environmental issues are more likely to integrate ...

Geomagnetic Pulsations Driving Geomagnetically Induced Currents

open access: yesSpace Weather, 2021
Geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) are driven by the geoelectric field induced by fluctuations of Earth's magnetic field. Drivers of intense GICs are often associated with large impulsive events such as coronal mass ejections.

Can Credit Rating Changes Affect Corporate Carbon Emissions? Some Evidence From the S&P 500

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using panel data on US S&P 500 firms from 2012 to 2024, this study examines how credit rating changes affect corporate carbon performance. Drawing on the resource‐based view and prospect theory, we show that credit rating downgrades lead to a statistically and economically significant deterioration in emission reduction scores.

Beyond Carbon: Corporate Environmental Performance Across Multiple Domains

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine corporate environmental performance (CEP) as a multidimensional system rather than isolated outcomes. Combining institutional and behavioral perspectives, we analyze four domains—CO2 emissions, waste, energy, and water—using S&P 500 firms that disclosed data on all four domains (2006–2024).

International Evidence on How Investors Value Environmental Innovation: Non‐Pecuniary Investor Preferences or Risk Mitigation?

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study how environmental innovation shapes investor expectations. We propose two mechanisms through which sustained improvements in environmental innovation may influence these expectations: non‐pecuniary investor preferences and risk mitigation.
