Linking axon transport to regeneration using in vitro laser axotomy.
Spinal cord injury has devastating consequences because adult
central nervous system (CNS) neurons do not regenerate their
axons after injury. Two key reasons for axon regeneration failure
are extrinsic inhibitory factors and a...
Axonal Organelles as Molecular Platforms for Axon Growth and Regeneration after Injury
Investigating the molecular mechanisms governing developmental axon growth has been a useful approach for identifying new strategies for boosting axon regeneration after injury, with the goal of treating debilitating conditions...
Private agenda and re-election incentives
Javier Rivas
Apr 01, 2016
Consider a politician who has to take two sequential decisions during his term in office. For each decision, the politician faces a trade-off between taking what he believes to be the decision that generates a public benefit...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Risk of stroke and dementia is markedly higher in people of South Asian and African Caribbean descent than white Europeans in the UK. This is unexplained by cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF). We...

The effects of the market structure on the adoption of evolving technologies
Javier Rivas
Dec 01, 2010
We study the speed at which technologies are adopted depending on how the market power is shared between the firms that sell technologies and the firms that buy them. Our results suggest that, because of a double marginalization...

ARF6 and Rab11 as intrinsic regulators of axon regeneration.
Adult central nervous system (CNS) axons do not regenerate after injury because of extrinsic inhibitory factors, and a low intrinsic capacity for axon growth. Developing CNS neurons have a better regenerative ability, but lose...
Promoting axon regeneration in the central nervous system by increasing PI3-kinase signaling.
Much research has focused on the PI3-kinase and PTEN signaling pathway with the aim to stimulate repair of the injured central nervous system. Axons in the central nervous system fail to regenerate, meaning that injuries or...

From ‘gender equality and ‘women’s empowerment’ to global justice
The language of ‘gender equality’ and ‘women’s empowerment’ was mobilised by feminists in the 1980s and 1990s as a way of getting women’s rights onto the international development agenda. Their efforts can be declared a...
Mechanism design and bounded rationality
Javier Rivas
Nov 01, 2015
In this paper we study the effects of bounded rationality in mechanism design problems. We model bounded rationality by assuming that in the presence of an incentive compatible mechanism, players behave as if their types were in...

Classification Of Geometry For Deployable Structures Used For Innovation
E Rivas Adrover
May 25, 2017
Deployable structures can expand and/or contract due to their geometrical, material and mechanical properties. This research proposes a classification of geometry for deployable structures. This classification system applied to...
Common value elections with private information and informative priors
We study efficiency and information aggregation in common value elections with continuous private signals and informative priors. We show that small elections are not generally efficient and that there are equilibria where some...
Stock Return Determinants In Stock Market Movements
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of Economic Value Added (EVA), Market Value Added (MVA), Residual Income (RI), Earnings Per Share (EPS) and Operating Cash Flow (OCF) on Stock Returns. Samples used in the...

Regional Regulation of Purkinje Cell Dendritic Spines by Integrins and Eph/Ephrins.
Climbing fibres and parallel fibres compete for dendritic space on Purkinje cells in the cerebellum. Normally, climbing fibres populate the proximal dendrites, where they suppress the multiple small spines typical of parallel...

A New Hybrid Type of Deployable Structure
E. Rivas-Adrover
Oct 24, 2018
Deployable structures can transform, expand and contract due to their geometric, material and mechanical properties; applications spread across multiple fields including aerospace technology and temporary, mobile and...
Expressive voting with booing and cheering
Previous work on Expressive Voting has focused on the desire of voters to express what they are for and thus who they are. But, often also as important, is the desire of voters to express what they are against, and who they are...
Voter heterogeneity and political corruption
We show that policies that eliminate corruption can depart from socially desirable policies and this inefficiency can be large enough to allow corruption to live on. Political competition between an honest (welfare maximiser)...
