A Simulation-Game for Resilience Assessments in a Payment System Disruption Scenario
This paper presents a quantitative agent-based simulation model of the everyday payment system used to simulate the business and consumer consequences of loss of functionality, or disruptions of the payment system for the food...

Preventing a Thought from Coming to Mind Elicits Increased Right Frontal Beta Just as Stopping Action Does.
In the stop-signal task, an electrophysiological signature of action-stopping is increased early right frontal beta band power for successful vs. failed stop trials. Here we tested whether the requirement to stop an unwanted...

In Search of Liberalism
TH Larsson
Jun 14, 2017
The history of political thought in Southeast Asia has overwhelmingly focused on nationalism and socialism/Marxism. Little has been written about the fate of liberalism in the region. This is in stark contrast with the...

Appraising the causal role of smoking in multiple diseases
BACKGROUND: The causal association between cigarette smoking and several diseases remains equivocal. The purpose of this study was to appraise the causal role of smoking in a wide range of diseases by summarizing the evidence...
Surface oxygen vacancy origin of electron accumulation in indium oxide
Aron Walsh
Jun 27, 2011
Metal oxides are typically insulating materials that can be made conductive through aliovalent doping and/or non-stoichiometry. Recent studies have identified conductive states at surfaces and interfaces of pure oxide materials;...
Ligand design for long-range magnetic order in metal-organic frameworks
We report a class of ligands that are candidates to construct metal-organic frameworks with long-range magnetic order between transition metal centres. Direct quantum chemical calculations predict Néel temperatures exceeding...
Causal role of high body mass index in multiple chronic diseases
Homocysteine and small vessel stroke
OBJECTIVE: Trials of B vitamin therapy to lower blood total homocysteine (tHcy) levels for prevention of stroke are inconclusive. Secondary analyses of trial data and epidemiological studies suggest that tHcy levels may be...
Genetically proxied interleukin-6 receptor inhibition
Respiratory disease is a main feature of severe COVID-19, and the potential of IL-6 receptor blockade to increase risk of pneumonia warrants vigilance and caution in its application to treat COVID-19 https://bit.ly/34Y8Ner
Principles of Chemical Bonding and Band Gap Engineering in Hybrid Organic–Inorganic Halide Perovskites

Genetic liability to insomnia in relation to cardiovascular diseases
The present study aimed to determine the associations between insomnia and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) using Mendelian randomisation (MR) analysis. As instrumental variables, we used 208 independent single-nucleotide...
Conductive metal–organic frameworks and networks
Electrical conduction is well understood in materials formed from inorganic or organic building blocks, but their combination to produce conductive hybrid frameworks and networks is an emerging and rapidly developing field of...
Chemical principles underpinning the performance of the metal–organic framework HKUST-1
A common feature of multi-functional metal–organic frameworks is a metal dimer in the form of a paddlewheel, as found in the structure of Cu3(btc)2 (HKUST-1). The HKUST-1 framework demonstrates exceptional gas storage, sensing...
