Signaling with costly acquisition of signals [PDF]
In this paper we investigate the consequences of introducing a cost to observe the signal in an otherwise standard signaling game. Beyond identifying equilibria, which we contrast with those of a standard signaling game, we study their robustness to two important classes of refinements: acting through restrictions on out-of-equilibrium beliefs and ...

Abstract We study competitive equilibria in a signalling economy with heterogeneously informed buyers. In terms of the classic Spence (1973, The Quarterly Journal of Economics, 87, 355—374) model of job market signalling, firms have access to direct but imperfect information about worker types, in addition to observing their education ...

The Signal for Signaling, Found
An important task in the life of bacteria is to influence their environment, which for commensal, symbiotic, and pathogenic bacteria also includes their hosts. This is done primarily by secreting various sets of proteins (effectors), either simply to the outside environment or directly into host cells.

Loss of Pkd1 limits susceptibility to colitis and colorectal cancer
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers, with an annual incidence of ~135,000 in the US, associated with ~50,000 deaths. Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), associated with mutations disabling the PKD1 gene, affects as

Awards are widespread in all countries and are prevalent both in the public sphere and in the private sector. This paper argues, and empirically supports, that awards serve public functions and economists should take them seriously. Using a unique cross-country data set, we suggest that awards serve as signals.

Negative Regulation of FGFR (Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor) Signaling
FGFR (fibroblast growth factor receptor) signaling controls fundamental processes in embryonic, fetal and adult human life. The magnitude, duration, and location of FGFR signaling must be strictly controlled in order to induce the correct biological ...

Mechanodetection of neighbor plants elicits adaptive leaf movements through calcium dynamics
Plants detect their neighbors via various cues, including reflected light and touching of leaf tips, which elicit upward leaf movement (hyponasty). It is currently unknown how touch is sensed and how the signal is transferred from the leaf tip to the ...

Alternate transcription of the Toll-like receptor signaling cascade [PDF]
Alternate splicing of key signaling molecules in the Toll-like receptor (Tlr) cascade has been shown to dramatically alter the signaling capacity of inflammatory cells, but it is not known how common this mechanism is. We provide transcriptional evidence

Inducible disruption of TET dioxygenases in mouse embryonic stem cells results in chromosome mis-segregation and aneuploidies, due to Khdc3 downregulation suggesting a role for TET enzymes and DNA methylation patterns in maintaining genome stability.
