Optimal contract design with labor-leisure choice under limited commitment: A free boundary approach
We study a continuous-time optimal contracting problem involving labor-leisure choices under limited commitment. A principal offers a contract to a risk-averse agent whose wage follows a geometric Brownian motion.

Impact of Plasma p‐tau181 on Cognition, Motor Phenotypes, and Disease Course in ALS
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Phosphorylated tau181 (p‐tau181), an Alzheimer's disease biomarker, was recently evaluated in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). We investigated plasma p‐tau181 in 202 ALS/ALS‐FTD patients and 94 healthy controls, assessing cognitive performance, motor function, and longitudinal dynamics.

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Variants in SLC6A1, encoding the GABA transporter 1 (GAT‐1), cause epilepsy, autism spectrum disorder, and developmental delay via loss of GABA uptake, impaired trafficking, and ER retention. We previously found that 4‐Phenylbutyrate (PBA), an FDA‐approved drug, restores GABA uptake and reduces seizures in SLC6A1‐related disorders ...
