Behind Closed Doors: How Boardroom Silence and Implicit Theories Shape Corporate Governance

Corporate Governance: An International Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research Question/Issue Why do directors, despite formal authority and oversight responsibilities, remain silent in the boardroom, and how does such silence shape governance outcomes? Research Findings/Insights Silence in boards is not a passive absence but a routinized governance practice.

Leadership and Accountability in Faith‐Based Institutions: Evidence From UK Mosques

Financial Accountability &Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates accountability in religious institutions on the basis of evidence obtained from interviews with relevant parties in UK mosques. We mobilize prior theoretical contention regarding servant leadership and constraints on personal accountability to expose perceptions of seriously deficient discharge outcomes.

Carbocisteine Reduces Airway Mucus Obstruction and Alters Inflammatory Cell Populations in a Model of Muco‐Obstructive Lung Disease

Immunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.
Mice with a muco‐obstructive lung disease phenotype were treated with the mucoactive drug, carbocisteine, which resulted in reduced airway mucus and an alteration in the lung mononuclear cell population which was either as a direct effect of, or secondary to, improved mucus clearance.

Natural disaster risk salience and the strategic appointment of directors with sustainability expertise

Journal of Financial Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how salient sustainability risks from near‐miss natural disasters influence board composition. Using a difference‐in‐differences design, I find that firms located in counties neighboring disaster‐affected areas significantly increase the presence of directors with sustainability expertise following the disaster.

Disasters, Dictators, and Donors: The Impact of Foreign Aid on Economic Activity (Mis)Reporting

Review of Development Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines how governments manipulate economic data to secure more foreign disaster aid. By using nighttime lighting as a reliable measure of economic activity, we make two key findings: (1) foreign disaster aid is positively linked to a country's understatement of its gross domestic product, indicating a deliberate strategy to ...

Influence of the Residual Inductance of the Impulse Generator for the Generation of the Lightning Impulse Voltage

IEEJ Transactions on Power and Energy, 2007
This paper describes the theoretical analysis of lightning impulse voltage waveform with an overshoot or oscillation caused by the residual inductance of the impulse generator. The oscillating lightning impulse waveform is expressed by the following formula;vout (t) = A {e-α1t - e-α2t sin(ωt+θ)/sinθ}where A, α1, α2, ω, θ are constants, respectively ...

Quaternary structures of Streptococcus pneumoniae nucleoside diphosphate kinase: From hexamers to supramolecular assemblies

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDK) is a key enzyme that controls the balance of nucleotide pools in all living organisms. Beyond this fundamental role, NDKs exert pleiotropic effects in many cellular processes, including cell development, signal transduction, differentiation, tumor metastasis, and gene expression. The quaternary structure

It Takes Two to Tango: A Pluralist Account for Building Comprehensive Explanations in Human Evolution

American Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 3, Page 494-510, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The evolutionary study of human dispersal is a key topic in biological anthropology. However, recent research has revealed inconsistencies between molecular and anatomical data across different timescales and geographic regions. Despite increased interdisciplinary dialogue, these discordances are rarely analyzed in depth or interpreted for ...
