Realizing high figure of merit in heavy-band p-type half-Heusler thermoelectric materials

open access: yesNature Communications, 2015
Solid-state thermoelectric technology offers a promising solution for converting waste heat to useful electrical power. Both high operating temperature and high figure of merit zT are desirable for high-efficiency thermoelectric power generation. Here we

MITF maintains genome stability in nonmelanocyte lineages

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
MITF is essential for melanocyte survival and acts as an oncogene in 10%–20% of melanomas. We show that MITF depletion causes genome instability in nonmelanocytic cells, leading to LATS2‐mediated P53 activation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis. This study highlights the role of MITF as a genome maintenance factor beyond the melanocyte lineage. Created

Merit Scholarships: Are They Accessible For All Students

open access: yes, 2023
Higher education should be accessible to all who reach for it. However, it is often out of reach for students from low socioeconomic backgrounds largely due to the cost barrier.

An analytic study of the Wiedemann–Franz law and the thermoelectric figure of merit [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics Communications, 2019
Advances in optimizing thermoelectric material efficiency have seen parallel activities in theoretical and computational studies. In the current work, we calculate the exact Fermi–Dirac integrals to enable the generalization of the Wiedemann–Franz law ...

Erythropoietin modulates hepatic inflammation, glucose homeostasis, and soluble epoxide hydrolase and epoxides in high‐fat diet‐induced obese mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Erythropoietin administration suppresses hepatic soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) expression, leading to increased CYP‐derived epoxides. This is associated with a shift in hepatic macrophage polarization characterized by reduced M1 markers and increased M2 markers, along with reduced hepatic inflammation, suppressed hepatic lipogenesis, and attenuated ...

UNU-MERIT at 25 years : how doctoral training at UNU-MERIT contributes to the community of scholars in the economis of innovation? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This paper contributes to literature on the emergence of innovation studies as a scientific field. This area of research documents the mechanisms, interactions and meeting spaces that innovation scholars have developed to give substance and legitimacy to

Meriting Concern and Meriting Respect

open access: yesJournal of Ethics and Social Philosophy, 2017
Recently there has been a somewhat surprising interest among Kantian theorists in the moral standing of animals, coupled with a no less surprising optimism among these theorists about the prospect of incorporating animal moral standing into Kantian theory without contorting its other attractive features.

Analysing the significance of small conformational changes and low occupancy states in serial crystallographic data

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This protocol paper outlines methods to establish the success of a time‐resolved serial crystallographic experiment, by means of statistical analysis of timepoint data in reciprocal space and models in real space. We show how to amplify the signal from excited states to visualise structural changes in successful experiments.

El Estatuto Básico del Empleado Público, la modernización administrativa en el Estado de las Autonomías: un proceso en construcción

open access: yesRevista Vasca de Administración Pública, 2009
This work analyzes the meaning and scope of the Basic Statute for Civil Servants as adopted by Act 7/2007 from a twofold perspective, its adjustment to the model of Autonomic State and its modernizing aspect. This Basic Statute for Civil Servants answers

Merit, Competition, Distinction

open access: yesRedescriptions, 2018
The article presents a critique of competition by introducing a concept called 'distinction'. Competition is thought to work as a guarantee of the fairness of meritocratic procedures (merit-based recruiting in the job market or e.g. entrance examinations)
