It's the Opportunity Cost, Stupid! How Self-Employment Responds to Financial Incentives of Return, Risk and Skew [PDF]
There is no robust empirical support for the effect of financial incentives on the decision to work in self-employment rather than as a wage earner. In the literature, this is seen as a puzzle. We offer a focus on the opportunity cost, i.e.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A nanounit‐assembled hydrogel employing a “pull‐and‐push” strategy simultaneously scavenges pro‐inflammatory cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) and delivers regenerative therapeutics in response to burn‐induced hyperthermia. By repolarizing macrophages and promoting angiogenesis, this multifunctional platform accelerates burn wound healing, offering a blueprint for

Skew-Symmetric Generalized Normal and Generalized t Distributions
AxiomsIn this paper, we introduce the skew-symmetric generalized normal and the skew-symmetric generalized t distributions, which are skewed extensions of symmetric special cases of generalized skew-normal and generalized skew-t distributions, respectively. We

Twin Crystal Moiré Metasurfaces for Crossing Flat‐Band Transport
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces twin crystal moiré metasurfaces, breaking in‐plane symmetry to enable reconfigurable acoustic wave manipulation. By adjusting the twin angle and interlayer twist angle, various combinations of hyperbolic, flat bands, and elliptic states can be synthesized in the system.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A portable respiratory monitoring device based on a flexible PZT sensor captures pressure‐ and temperature‐related airflow responses in a single waveform. Polarity‐opposed piezoelectric and pyroelectric components generate a narrow transient spike and a broad quasi‐steady peak during both inhalation and exhalation. This dual‐component structure enables

Skew-normal shocks in the linear state space form DSGE model [PDF]
Observed macroeconomic data – notably GDP growth rate, inflation and interest rates – can be, and usually are skewed. Economists attempt to fit models to data by matching first and second moments or co-moments, but skewness is usually neglected. It is so

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This systematic review quantitatively compares conventional mechanical stimulation strategies in cartilage tissue engineering across 85 heterogeneous in vitro studies. Applying standardized effect measures, meta‐analysis reveals that combined compression and shear loading optimally promotes cartilage matrix development.

SKEW DETECTION AND CORRECTION OF JAWI IMAGES USING GRADIENT DIRECTION
, 2002 This paper discusses an enhancement algorithm of the skew and slant orientation of the jawi image.A simple and pick algorithm that uses a gradient orientation histogram, similar to the one proposed by Sun and Si(l997) for the Latin text is suggested to ...

Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy in Bionanotechnology: Current Advances and Future Perspectives
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) enables the nanoscale mapping of electrostatic surface potentials. While widely applied in materials science, its use in biological systems remains emerging. This review presents recent advances in KPFM applied to biological samples and provides a critical perspective on current limitations and future directions for
