Ultrathin Gold for Robust Multi‐Element Surface Plasmon Resonance Biosensing

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This is a pioneering work where for the first time we applied recently synthesised ultrathin layer of gold for plasmonic biosensing that makes use of multi‐element architectures. This study solves the problem of stability of the multi‐element biosensors as well as demonstrates increased sensitivity achieved by utilising new additions to low‐dimension ...

The local health impacts of natural resource booms

Health Economics, Volume 32, Issue 2, Page 462-500, February 2023., 2023
Abstract This paper uses novel micro‐data on natural resources and administrative health data in Brazil to study how economic booms in minerals affect health at birth. By implementing a reduced‐form estimation of shift‐share research designs, the identification strategy relies on the exogeneity of global commodity prices to municipality‐specific health
