Bridging the gap: Multi‐stakeholder perspectives of molecular diagnostics in oncology
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Although molecular diagnostics is transforming cancer care, implementing novel technologies remains challenging. This study identifies unmet needs and technology requirements through a two‐step stakeholder involvement. Liquid biopsies for monitoring applications and predictive biomarker testing emerge as key unmet needs. Technology requirements vary by

Contributions to Geophysics and Geodesy, 2019 An important, yet until now neglected, aspect of the viscoelastic behaviour of lavas is the Kramers–Kronig consistency of their complex viscoelastic shear modulus.

Fertility and Time Inconsistency [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2007 This paper analyzes the impact of (quasi-) hyperbolic discounting on timing and numbers of births. Using a simple three period model it shows that without the ability to save and borrow hyperbolic discounters postpone births and give birth to less children than previously intended. In the presence of a (perfect) capital market additional qualifications

Time-Inconsistent Bargaining and Cross-Commitments
Games, 2023 The paper studies bargaining games involving players with present-biased preferences. The paper shows that the relative timing of bargaining rewards and bargaining costs will determine whether the players’ present-bias will affect bargaining outcomes. In cases where players agree to a bargain in period 1 and experience all bargaining payoffs in period ...

Bailouts, Time Inconsistency, and Optimal Regulation [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2013 We develop a model in which, in order to provide managerial incentives, it is optimal to have costly bankruptcy. If benevolent governments can commit to their policies, it is optimal not to interfere with private contracts. Such policies are time inconsistent in the sense that, without commitment, governments have incentives to bail out firms by buying

Screening for lung cancer: A systematic review of overdiagnosis and its implications
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Low‐dose computed tomography (CT) screening for lung cancer may increase overdiagnosis compared to no screening, though the risk is likely low versus chest X‐ray. Our review of 8 trials (84 660 participants) shows added costs. Further research with strict adherence to modern nodule management strategies may help determine the extent to which ...

Liquid biopsy epigenetics: establishing a molecular profile based on cell‐free DNA
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) fragments in plasma from cancer patients carry epigenetic signatures reflecting their cells of origin. These epigenetic features include DNA methylation, nucleosome modifications, and variations in fragmentation. This review describes the biological properties of each feature and explores optimal strategies for harnessing cfDNA ...

A feasibility study of establishing fiscal council in Indonesia
Economic Journal of Emerging Markets, 2018 In this paper we address the quantitative measurement of credibility in fiscal policy in the case of Indonesia over the period 2001-2016. This preliminary paper focuses on the deviations of the actual budget balances from the projections about these ...

Reliability and Availability Models of Belt Drive Systems Considering Failure Dependence
Chinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2019 Conventional reliability models of belt drive systems in the failure mode of fatigue are mainly based on the static stress strength interference model and its extended models, which cannot consider dynamic factors in the operational duration and be used ...
