Economics of land‐based carbon mitigation

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Agricultural land holds tremendous potential to contribute to net zero greenhouse gas emission goals by providing low carbon renewable energy to displace fossil fuels and by serving as a sink for sequestering carbon in the soil with climate‐smart practices. This potential is, however, far from being realized.

Back Again to the Future: A New Era for Cerebroprotection

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Cerebroprotection is a fresh framework for designing neurological therapy that targets glia and vascular cells, in addition to neurons. In the future, successful cerebroprotection will involve targeting all elements of the neurovascular unit. Preclinical trials must include functional outcomes, as well as lesion morphometry.
