Politics of on‐demand food delivery: Policy design and the power of algorithms
Review of Policy Research, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 646-664, September 2023., 2023 Abstract In this article, we examine the politics of on‐demand food delivery using insights from the theory of social construction and policy design. On‐demand food delivery is a service built on algorithm‐based technology known for its precarity and physical risks for couriers.

The role of cell size in shaping responses to oxygen and temperature in fruit flies
Functional Ecology, Volume 37, Issue 5, Page 1269-1279, May 2023., 2023 Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The body size of an animal is strongly coupled to key ecological traits such as fecundity, mortality and growth. Ectothermic animals mature at smaller body sizes in warmer conditions and under low oxygen availability (hypoxia).

Learning outcomes measured in zoo and aquarium conservation education
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Communicating the topic of conservation to the public and encouraging proenvironmental behaviors can mitigate loss of biodiversity. Thus, the evaluation of educational efforts is important to ascertain the educational effects and provide high‐quality conservation education.

Advanced Materials, Volume 35, Issue 1, January 5, 2023., 2023 Fourfold twisted Au nanorods can be prepared via chiral seeded growth, using cysteine as a chiral inducer. A high dissymmetry factor is obtained and electromagnetic simulations show chiral plasmon modes with largely asymmetric near‐field enhancement. The mechanism involved in chiral growth is related with cysteine‐induced enantioselective development ...

Typifying conservation practitioners’ views on the role of education
Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 4, August 2022., 2022 Abstract Education is an established tool to enhance human–environment relationships, despite the lack of empirical evidence to support its use. We used theories of change to unpack assumptions about the role of education in conservation. We interviewed practitioners from 15 conservation organizations in Madagascar to typify implicit pathways of change

Coproduction as a Causal Process
Policy Studies Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT That many public goods and services are coproduced jointly by government agencies (regular producers) together with clients and citizens (consumer producers) represents a fundamental insight, although it has proven a challenge to define coproduction clearly and to study it rigorously.
