How Violence Shapes Place: The Rise of Neo‐Authoritarianism in the Global Value Chain and the Emergence of an ‘Infernal Place’ in the Bangladesh Garment Industry

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how and to what extent violence has become a pivotal tool for conducting business in places integrated into the global value chain. It also explores the roles stakeholders play in silencing workers' resistance within these places.

Pavement Management System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
All kinds of motorways enable motor vehicles to travel. Pavement structures and pavement surfaces are exposed to various loadings (traffic, climate etc.) which cause deformations and deterioration (changes of condition).

The uncomfortable science in the womb: How biological experience disrupts surrogacy narratives

open access: yesMedical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract The discourse surrounding surrogacy portrays pregnancy as a temporary process, depicting surrogates as neutral “carriers” whose involvement concludes at birth. This narrative minimizes gestation's biological significance despite evidence of its lasting effects on both women and children.

Generating Infrastructure Funds Through Innovative Pavement Management

open access: yes, 2015
The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) estimates that there will be a need for $3.6 trillion in infrastructure investment by 2020. A portion of this need can be made available through judicious management of the Nation's pavement systems.

Gut–Brain Axis Modulation by Short‐Chain Fatty Acids Exerts Disease‐Modifying Effects in a Murine Model of Drug‐Resistant Epilepsy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, Volume 100, Issue 3, Page 613-627, September 2026.
Objective Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) remains a clinical challenge, as therapies modifying disease trajectory are lacking. Increasing evidence implicates gut microbiota dysbiosis in epilepsy pathophysiology, with short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs) emerging as key microbial metabolites with neuroprotective and anti‐inflammatory properties.

Proteomic profile of CSF obtained at the time of diagnosis determines amyotrophic lateral sclerosis progression and survival: CXCL7 levels in disease prognosis and survival

open access: yesBrain Pathology, Volume 36, Issue 5, September 2026.
Untargeted multiomic profiling of cerebrospinal fluid reveals that proteomic, but not lipidomic, signatures robustly distinguish ALS patients from controls and stratify individuals by survival, highlighting marked molecular differences between short survival and long survival disease.

Targeting progressive multiple sclerosis: Toward mechanism‐informed precision medicine

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, Volume 300, Issue 3, Page 238-257, September 2026.
Abstract Multiple sclerosis has undergone a therapeutic revolution over the past three decades. Randomized clinical trials and real‐world data demonstrate that modern disease‐modifying therapies substantially reduce relapse rates and acute inflammatory activity detected by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Multi-Sensor Spatial Data Fusion for Road Condition Monitoring Digital Twins [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
Pavement Management Systems (PMS) are essential for evaluating and maintaining transportation infrastructure; however, conventional monitoring methods are often labour-intensive, costly, and inaccurate. The growing need for reliable.

Preparing for the Next Transformation in Pavement Management

open access: yes, 2015
Since the initial development of a systems approach for managing pavements in the late 1970's and early 1980's, there have been tremendous changes in the way transportation agencies have designed, constructed, and managed their pavement networks. In just
