When and How Do Women Directors Matter for Corporate Sustainability? The French Case

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines when and how board gender diversity matters for corporate sustainability. Using a sample of French listed firms over 2006–2024, we combine dynamic system GMM estimations with difference‐in‐differences tests around France's phased board gender quotas.

Gravity sensing, a largely misunderstood trigger of plant orientated growth

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Gravity is a crucial environmental factor regulating plant growth and development. Plants have the ability to sense a change in the direction of gravity, which leads to the re-orientation of their growth direction, so-called gravitropism.

Phosphonomethyl (Thio)Phosphonamidite Reagents for the Construction of Phosphonylmethyl Phosphono(Di)Thioate Mono‐ and Diesters

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A set of new phosphonomethyl (thio)phosphonamidite reagents is introduced to generate unprecedented pyrophosphate mimetics. The versatile P(III)‐P(V) reagents allow for the construction of various pyrophosphate isosteres, and the applicability of the chemistry is illustrated in the assembly of a diverse set of stabilized CDP‐glycerol and CDP‐ribitol ...

GAN‐LSTM‐3D: An efficient method for lung tumour 3D reconstruction enhanced by attention‐based LSTM

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Three‐dimensional (3D) image reconstruction of tumours can visualise their structures with precision and high resolution. In this article, GAN‐LSTM‐3D method is proposed for 3D reconstruction of lung cancer tumours from 2D CT images. Our method consists of three phases: lung segmentation, tumour segmentation, and tumour 3D reconstruction. Lung

Data with hierarchical structure: impact of intraclass correlation and sample size on Type-I error

Frontiers in Psychology, 2011
Least squares analyses (e.g., ANOVAs, linear regressions) of hierarchical data leads to Type-I error rates that depart severely from the nominal Type-I error rate assumed. Thus, when least squares methods are used to analyze hierarchical data coming from

Redox‐Switchable Optical and Magnetic Properties in a Self‐Assembled Hexanuclear Ni(II) Double‐Decker Complex

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A triangular double‐decker Ni6 complex self‐assembles from Ni(II), TMEDA, and a triphenylene tris dioxolene non‐innocent ligand, with two face‐to‐face tris‐semiquinone decks held by a strong covalent C─C interaction. This rigid scaffold delivers four reversible ligand‐centered redox events: oxidation switches on an intense near‐infrared band and ...

Water‐based drilling fluids formulated with mature fine tailings

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Mature fine tailings (MFT) are persistent, highly stable colloidal suspensions generated as byproducts of bitumen extraction from oil sands. Given their environmental risks, identifying viable applications for MFT could reduce their accumulation while offsetting natural resource use.

Domain‐adapted driving scene understanding with uncertainty‐aware and diversified generative adversarial networks

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Autonomous vehicles are required to operate in an uncertain environment. Recent advances in computational intelligence techniques make it possible to understand driving scenes in various environments by using a semantic segmentation neural network, which assigns a class label to each pixel.
