Dynamic Choice and Timing-Independence: an experimental investigation [PDF]
Timing-independence implies that individuals are indifferent between a sequential choice problem and a planned choice problem which are strategically equivalent except for the timing of resolution of the uncertainty.

Consider an individual whose preferences are changing over time. How do we assess her welfare? We argue that this is an empirically relevant question as preferences are constantly changing over time if the agent has a bias towards the present. We present

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Methods to improve antibody–drug conjugate (ADC) treatment durability in cancer therapy are needed. We utilized ADCs and immune‐stimulating antibody conjugates (ISACs), which are made from two non‐competitive antibodies, to enhance the entry of toxic payloads into cancer cells and deliver immunostimulatory agents into immune cells.

Cotargeting TREM2 and IL2 pathways triggers multipronged anticancer immunity
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Von Locquenghien et al. report that MiTE‐144, a triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) blocking antibody fused to interleukin‐2 (IL2) variant with tumour microenvironment restricted activation, demonstrates superior anticancer efficiency in a preclinical setting.
