Nature, Nurture and Egalitarian Policy: What Can We Learn from Molecular Genetics? [PDF]

This brief paper draws attention to molecular genetic research which may provide a new dimension to our understanding of how socioeconomic outcomes are generated. In particular, we provide an overview of the recently emerging evidence of gene-environment

Mothers Do Matter: New Evidence on the Effect of Parents' Schooling on Children's Schooling Using Swedish Twin Data [PDF]

Behrman and Rosenzweig (2002) used data on a small sample of MZ (monozygotic, identical) twin parents and their children to show that father's schooling is more important than mother's schooling for children's schooling in the U.S.

COULD RAPIDLY MUTATING Y-STRS BE A POTENTIAL FORENSIC TOOL IN DISCRIMINATING LEBANESE MONOZYGOTIC TWINS?

Genetics & Applications, 2018
Despite the high power of discrimination that characterizes the well identified 16 to 24 autosomal short tandem repeat markers, monozygotic twins differentiation is generally limited.

Unobserved heterogeneity in a model with cure fraction applied to breast cancer [PDF]

We suggest a cure-mixture model to analyze bivariate time-to-event data, as motivated by the paper of Chatterjee and Shih (2001, Biometrics 57, 779 - 786), but with a simpler estimation procedure and the correlated gamma-frailty model instead of the ...
