Long term effects of a mandatory multistage program:the new deal for young people in the UK [PDF]
The New Deal For Young People is the major welfare-to-work program in the UK. It is amandatory multistage policy targeted at the 18-24 year old unemployed. This paper investi-gates the effectiveness of the program in terms of enhancing the (re)employment

This study identifies OCIAD2 as a critical regulator of cisplatin resistance in HNSCC. Mechanistically, OCIAD2 stabilizes integrin β1 through a direct physical interaction and facilitates its SNX17‐dependent endosomal recycling to lipid raft microdomains. Targeting OCIAD2 disrupts integrin β1 trafficking and significantly enhances cisplatin sensitivity,

Regression(s) discontinuity: Using bootstrap aggregation to yield estimates of RD treatment effects
Following Efron (2014), we propose an algorithm for estimating treatment effects for use by researchers employing a regression-discontinuity (RD) design.

The Matching Method for Treatment Evaluation with Selective Participation and Ineligibles [PDF]
The matching method for treatment evaluation does not balance selective unobserved differences between treated and non-treated. We derive a simple correction term if there is an instrument that shifts the treatment probability to zero in specific cases ...

This study investigates how endothelial monolayers balance cohesion and plasticity during mechanical stimulation. In HUVECs, shear stress induces a tension‐sensitive intermediate state in which junctional VE‐cadherin and actomyosin relaxation levels coordinate actin/integrin remodeling. This rapid, reversible state strengthens cell junctions, preserves

Incentive Effects of Social Assistance: A Regression Discontinuity Approach [PDF]
We examine the incentive effects of transfer programs using a unique policy episode. Prior to 1989, social assistance recipients without children in Quebec who were under age 30 received benefits 60 percent lower than recipients older than 30.

This study presents sulfate‐directed silver dendrites (s‐AgDs) as oxidation‐resistant SERS substrates with long‐term stability, reproducibility, and sub‐picomolar sensitivity. Sulfate ions guide anisotropic growth and protect the surface, enabling improved performance over 7 months under ambient conditions.

Density Discontinuity Regression
Many policies hinge on a continuous variable exceeding a threshold, prompting strategic behavior by agents to stay on the favorable side. This creates density discontinuities at cutoffs, evident in contexts like taxable income, corporate regulations, and academic grading.
