Essays on Social Preferences [PDF]

, 2013
After giving a brief overview over the historic background on the role of social preferences in economics, I survey the existing corpus of other-regarding utility function.

Music Sound Quality Assessment in Bimodal Cochlear Implant Users—Toward Improved Hearing Aid Fitting

Audiology Research
Background/Objectives: Cochlear implants (CIs) are a common treatment of severe-to-profound hearing loss and provide reasonable speech understanding, at least in quiet situations. However, their limited spectro-temporal resolution restricts sound quality,

Single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assays for high‐throughput DNA–protein interaction studies

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We describe an optimised single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assay that visualises DNA–protein interactions in real time. Linear DNA fragments are tethered to a surface and stretched by buffer flow for fluorescence imaging. Using λ and φX174 DNA, this protocol enhances reproducibility and accessibility, providing a versatile approach for studying diverse ...

Reference dependence and market competition [PDF]

, 2008
This paper studies the implications of consumer reference dependence for market competition. If consumers take some product (e.g., the first product they consider) as the reference point when evaluating others and exhibit loss aversion, then the more ...

Analysing the significance of small conformational changes and low occupancy states in serial crystallographic data

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This protocol paper outlines methods to establish the success of a time‐resolved serial crystallographic experiment, by means of statistical analysis of timepoint data in reciprocal space and models in real space. We show how to amplify the signal from excited states to visualise structural changes in successful experiments.

Proteasomal degradation of intracellularly expressed Amblyomin‐X limits suicide gene therapy potential in melanoma cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study explores the feasibility of expressing the antitumoral protein Amblyomin‐X through a suicide gene therapy approach and investigates its intracellular fate after gene delivery. Although the gene is efficiently expressed, melanoma cells rapidly degrade the Amblyomin‐X protein via proteasome activity.

RP/SP estimation including reference-dependent preferences [PDF]

, 2010
This paper integrates reference-dependent preferences into joint mod-elling of both revealed- and stated-choice data. We applied our model to revealed choices among new vehicles and stated choices among con-ventional, hybrid, biodiesel, and electric ...

Evolutionarily divergent DUF4465 domains have a common vitamin B12‐binding function

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We show that DUF4465 family proteins, widespread across bacteria from gut microbiomes, hydrothermal vents, and soil, share a common vitamin B12‐binding function. These augmented β‐jellyroll proteins bind vitamin B12 via extended loops. Our findings establish sequence‐diverse DUF4465 proteins as a widespread class of B12‐binding proteins, highlighting ...

A novel q-ROHFS prospect theory based MABAC method for failure mode risk prioritization in aircraft landing systems

Scientific Reports
Failure mode risk prioritization is crucial in aircraft landing systems, where undetected or misjudged failures can lead to catastrophic outcomes. Effective risk analysis enables proactive maintenance and enhances aviation safety in such critical phases ...

Blood‐based proteomic profiling reveals context‐dependent changes in BCL2‐associated signaling during taxane therapy in breast cancer patients

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy side effects significantly impact cancer survivors' quality of life. Using protein levels in blood samples from breast cancer patients before and after 12 weeks of taxane treatment, we detected treatment‐dependent changes in calcium signaling and aging pathways associated with cancer recurrence.
