Experiential Marketing of Clean Drinking Water: Experimental Evidence for Kenya and Rwanda

Review of Development Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To date, limited work investigates how consumers in emerging markets make consumption decisions. With the rise in demand for clean drinking water in sub‐Sahara Africa, a field experiment was conducted on non‐consumers of two socially oriented drinking water companies providing low‐cost, re‐usable bottled drinking water in Kenya and Rwanda.

Rethinking ‘Hill‐Valley Divide’ in Darjeeling District, India: An Autoethnographic Approach to Highland Identities

Studies in Ethnicity and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research examines the Hill‐Valley divide in Darjeeling district, West Bengal, India, where Nepali‐speaking hill communities coexist with Bengali‐speaking valley populations. It argues that this division is a colonial construct, shaped by British policies that romanticised the hills as a ‘mini‐England’ while separating them from the valley

The Impact of an Integrated steM Camp on Middle School Students' Enjoyment, Career Knowledge, and Career Interest

School Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Much of the work in STEM camps tends to be science‐driven with little attention given to mathematics. Guided by a mixed methods embedded research design using data from observations, questionnaires, and a group interview, we investigate if a camp that explicitly integrates mathematics had a positive impact on middle school students' STEM ...

Molecular Phylogeny, Species Delimitation, and Biogeography of the Varunid Crab Genus Metaplax (Crustacea, Varunidae)

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Indo‐West Pacific genus Metaplax comprises 11 recognised species inhabiting intertidal mudflats, some adjacent to mangroves. To resolve long‐standing uncertainties, we analysed mitochondrial (COI, 16S) and nuclear (28S) markers. Phylogenetic analyses recovered Metaplax as monophyletic and resolved four well‐supported clades—the M ...

How do physiological networks respond to normobaric hypoxia and isometric exercise?

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The dynamics of physiological systems are impacted by both exercise and hypoxia. Network models can be used to map the interactions between various physiological components in environmental physiology and exercise using the concepts of information theory.

Interpreting peripheral oxygen saturation variability in critical illness: A directional framework adjusted for hypoxia severity

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2${S_{{\mathrm{p}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$) exhibits a complex pattern of fluctuations during hypoxia, which can be quantified using entropy measures. SpO2${S_{{\mathrm{p}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$ entropy analysis provides insights into dynamic physiological regulation by non‐invasively reflecting the body's capacity to ...

ESM‐1 and GBP‐1 are associated with endothelial dysfunction: emerging biomarkers or key players in the pathophysiology of preeclampsia?

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Endothelial specific molecule‐1 (ESM‐1) and guanylate binding protein‐1 (GBP‐1) are proteins that are produced by activated/dysfunctional endothelial cells and are increased and decreased, respectively, during preeclampsia. It remains to be established whether ESM‐1 and GBP‐1 could potentially be included as biomarkers for the ...
