Signal and Contrast Optimization With Predicted Excitations (SCOPE) for Accelerating Large FOV Body Imaging at UHF

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Large FOV turbo‐spin‐echo (TSE) imaging at ultra‐high field (UHF) remains challenging due to B1+ inhomogeneity and peak specific absorption rate (pSAR) limitations. This work presents a new time‐interleaved acquisition of modes (TIAMO) framework called SCOPE (Signal and Contrast Optimization with Predicted Excitations), which overcomes

Reconsidering Volume‐Based Drug Procurement Policy: The Consequences of Manufacturers' Optimal Production Planning and Breach Strategies

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the impacts of Volume‐Based Procurement (VBP) policies on pharmaceutical supply chains, with a focus on the strategic behaviors of manufacturers. VBP aims to reduce costs and stabilize supplies by centralizing procurement through competition based on volumes and prices.

Foraging and movement flexibility shape seed dispersal by an arboreal primate in a modified landscape

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
As habitats change, the effectiveness of animal‐mediated seed dispersal increasingly depends on animal responses to altered structure and resources. With habitat loss and degradation accelerating across the tropics, understanding how dispersers' foraging behavior and movement influence seed removal and deposition is critical to promoting forest ...
