Determinants of Moral Hazard in Microfinance: Empirical Evidence from Joint Liability Lending Programs in Malawi [PDF]

open access: yes
Moral hazard is widely reported as a problem in credit and insurance markets, mainly arising from information asymmetry. Although theorists have attempted to explain how group lending with joint liability can be an important tool for mitigating moral ...

A Convenient, Safe, and Atom‐Economical Route to a Large Portfolio of Grubbs‐Type Catalysts for Olefin Metathesis via Four‐Coordinate Ruthenium Alkylidynes

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
It may seem counterintuitive to first target a ruthenium alkylidyne when Grubbs‐type ruthenium carbene complexes are the actual goal. In the end, however, this tactic pays valuable dividends in terms of practicality, atom economy, flexibility as well as safety: the new route provides ready access to a large assortment of catalysts for alkene metathesis

A multiscale Bayesian optimization framework for process and material codesign

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The simultaneous design of processes and enabling materials such as solvents, catalysts, and adsorbents is challenging because molecular‐ and process‐level decisions are strongly interdependent. Sequential approaches often yield suboptimal results since improvements in material properties may not translate into superior process performance. We

On the Discorhabdins Leading to the Aleutianamine Ring System: A One‐Step in Situ Transformation Characterized Through Computational and Experimental Studies and Its Implications on Biosynthesis, Synthesis, and Pharmacology

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The thiocarbenium ion rearrangement of 3‐dihydrodisorhabdin B greatly increases the recovery of aleutianamine from Latrunculia spp., a pyrroloiminoquinone natural product with potent activity against drug‐resistant cancers, collected from the deep‐ocean along the Aleutian Islands.
