Towards the control of biofilm formation in Anabaena (Nostoc) sp. PCC7120: novel insights into the genes involved and their regulation

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Cyanobacteria are major components of biofilms in light‐exposed environments, contributing to nutrient cycling, nitrogen fixation and global biogeochemical processes. Although nitrogen‐fixing cyanobacteria have been successfully used in biofertilization, the regulatory mechanisms underlying biofilm formation remain poorly understood.

Untangling US Employment Changes: Production Technology Versus Trade Structure

open access: yesReview of International Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper quantifies how much trade structure and production technology changes contribute to US employment changes. We apply a structural decomposition analysis (SDA) to global input–output tables. SDA extends the conventional shift‐share analysis and splits employment changes into the contributions by several drivers.

Winners and losers when firms robotize: wage effects across occupations and education

open access: yesThe Scandinavian Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper analyses the impact of robots on workers' wages in the manufacturing sector, with a particular focus on relative wages for workers with different levels of education and in different occupations. Using high‐quality matched employer–employee register data with firm‐level information on the introduction of industrial robots, we ...

Teacher leadership for integrated STEM education: Identifying what effective leaders need to know and do

open access: yesSchool Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.
Abstract Internationally, science, technology, engineering, mathematics (iSTEM) education continues to flourish in schools, with many now embracing the combined disciplinary assumption suggested by its acronym; integrated STEM (iSTEM) education. Advocated for its potential to increase student interest and achievement in STEM subjects, courses, and ...

Acute intermittent hypoxia in neonatal rodent central nervous system facilitates respiratory frequency through the recruitment of hypothalamic areas

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Moderate and acute intermittent hypoxia (IH) facilitates respiration in adults, mostly by recruiting peripheral chemo‐/baroreceptors. As central chemoreceptors are widely expressed in immature brains, we hypothesized that IH modulates respiration at birth through a purely neurogenic mechanism involving the hypothalamus.
