We document the role of entrepreneurial founder and venture capital (VC) partner co-ethnicity in shaping investment relationships. Co-ethnicity increases the likelihood that a VC firm invests in a company. Conditional on investment, co-ethnicity strengthens the degree of involvement by raising the likelihood of VC board of director involvement and increasing the size and scope of investment. These
Purpose – This paper aims to analyze the conditions for co-creation in a non-commercial context. The particular aim is to show how a co-creative activity is framed for the participants and the consequences of the frames for the values that are co-created in the process. Design/methodology/approach – Goffman’s frame analysis is applied to investigate how co-creation is used as a marketing strategy
The 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome (EMS), also referred to as stem cell leukemia/lymphoma, is a chronic myeloproliferative disorder that rapidly progresses into acute leukemia. Molecularly, EMS is characterized by fusion of various partner genes to the FGFR1 gene, resulting in constitutive activation of the tyrosine kinases in FGFR1. To date, no previous study has addressed the functional conseq
Human fibrocytes are bone marrow-derived mesenchymal progenitor cells that express a variety of markers related to leukocytes, hematopoietic stem cells and a diverse set of fibroblast phenotypes. Fibrocytes can be recruited from the circulation to the tissue where they further can differentiate and proliferate into various mesenchymal cell types depending on the tissue niche. This local tissue nic
Though there is a very large literature examining whether energy use Granger causes economic output or vice versa, it is fairly inconclusive. Almost all existing studies use relatively short time series, or panels with a relatively small time dimension. We apply Granger causality and cointegration techniques to a Swedish time series dataset spanning 150 years to test whether increases in energy us
Recent discussions of method in historical Jesus research have called into question the use of criteria for evaluating the authenticity of Gospel material. The present article lays out the reasons why a number of scholars call for an abandonment of the so-called criteria approach and then criticizes the allegation that this approach is genetically and logically dependent on form criticism. By anal
This review provides an update on the importance of the peripheral 'small' airways in asthma. As the small airways account for less than 10% of total airway resistance, thus having little impact on standard lung function measures such as forced expiratory volume and peak flow, they have been referred to as the 'silent zone'.
This thesis interrogates Rome’s housing cooperative sector, focusing on the challenges and opportunities housing cooperatives face in providing affordable housing for their members. It analyses Rome’s housing regime to present the housing context in which housing cooperatives operate. The thesis explores what housing affordability means within the eternal city, moving beyond a simple income ratio
Environmental claims have become a familiar feature of fashion marketing. On social media, however, they are rarely communicated in isolation. A state ment about recycled materials may appear alongside personal styling, aesthetic imagery and an influencer's endorsement. The challenge for EU consumer law is that the environmental meaning of such content may not lie in the wording alone, but in
This thesis investigates the relationship between urban planning, climate adaptation, and cultural continuity in Arctic Canada, with a particular focus on remote northern settlements. While contemporary discussions surrounding resilience and sustainability are predominantly centred on large metropolitan regions, Arctic communities experience distinct spatial and infrastructural challenges that are
This thesis analyses the emergence of judicial tax litigation in Peru as a differentiated professional practice among tax lawyers. Drawing on semi-structured interviews and documentary review, the research reconstructs the process through which certain high-value tax disputes, initially channelled through administrative venues, gradually moved into the Judiciary. The central argument is that this
Water diffusion gives rise to micron-scale sensitivity of diffusion MRI (dMRI) to cellular-level tissue structure. Precision medicine and quantitative imaging depend on uncovering the information content of dMRI and establishing its parsimonious hardware-independent fingerprint. Based on the rotational SO(3) symmetry, we study the geometry of the dMRI signal and the topology of its acquisition, id
Drug use disorder (DUD) is distributed unevenly over geographical areas of Sweden. We explore, using geographically weighted regression, the proportion of this variation associated with community levels of genetic risk, social deprivation and urbanicity. In the 5983 Demographic Statistical areas (DeSOs) within Sweden, we predict DeSO prevalence from mean genetic risk for DUD, measured by the famil
We study the 'rank 1 case' of the inhomogeneous random graph model. In the subcritical case we derive an exact formula for the asymptotic size of the largest connected component scaled to log n. This result complements the corresponding known result in the supercritical case. We provide some examples of applications of the derived formula.
Much of the literature in the field of international relations is currently concerned with the changing patterns of authority in world politics. This is particularly evident in the policy domain of climate change, where a number of authors have observed a relocation of authority in global climate governance. These scholars claim that multilateral treaty making has lost much of its spark, and they
The human amygdala is involved in processing of memory, decision-making, and emotional responses. Previous studies suggested that the amygdala may represent a neurogenic niche in mammals. By combining two distinct methodological approaches, lipofuscin quantification and 14C-based retrospective birth dating of neurons, along with mathematical modelling, we here explored whether postnatal neurogenes
