Gender differences, academic patenting, and tenure-track reform in China: Evidence from life sciences at elite universities

by Xin Zhang, Shi Chen, Wei Zheng

This study is the first to examine the gender gap in academic patenting among faculty members in Chinese universities, a critical issue for the sustainable development of scientific research and innovation. Using a unique dataset that includes the patenting activities and professional status of 1,836 faculty members in life science-related departments at 36 top Chinese universities, this research reveals an evolving landscape of patenting dynamics. The trend... Читать дальше...

An improved mountain gazelle optimizer based on chaotic map and spiral disturbance for medical feature selection

by Ying Li, Yanyu Geng, Huankun Sheng

Feature selection is an important solution for dealing with high-dimensional data in the fields of machine learning and data mining. In this paper, we present an improved mountain gazelle optimizer (IMGO) based on the newly proposed mountain gazelle optimizer (MGO) and design a binary version of IMGO (BIMGO) to solve the feature selection problem for medical data. First, the gazelle population is initialized using iterative chaotic map with infinite collapses (ICMIC) mapping... Читать дальше...

Can digital financial inclusion converge the regional agricultural carbon emissions intensity gap?

by Lingzhi Tan, Nuolan Tian, Xiaxuan Li, Huan Chen

To explore whether digital finance can reduce agricultural carbon emissions, promote regional convergence, and foster inclusivity in rural revitalization and shared prosperity, this paper uses the provincial-level index of digital financial inclusion to analyze the impact of digital financial inclusion on the intensity of agricultural carbon emissions and the Degum Gini coefficient (D-Gini coefficient) of regional carbon emission intensity in 30 sample provinces from 2010 to 2020.

Meiotic double-strand break repair DNA synthesis tracts in Arabidopsis thaliana

by Miguel Hernández Sánchez-Rebato, Veit Schubert, Charles I. White

We report here the successful labelling of meiotic prophase I DNA synthesis in the flowering plant, Arabidopsis thaliana. Incorporation of the thymidine analogue, EdU, enables visualisation of the footprints of recombinational repair of programmed meiotic DNA double-strand breaks (DSB), with ~400 discrete, SPO11-dependent, EdU-labelled chromosomal foci clearly visible at pachytene and later stages of meiosis. This number... Читать дальше...

Africa Emerges as Focal Point in Global Oil and Gas Exploration

The skewed activity is highlighted by explorers demarcating assets within their portfolios as ‘core’ areas of operations, with the majority of guided exploration spending being directed towards exploring these areas. Secondly, the acceleration of development of proven basins amid the rise of renewable sources of energy has been demonstrated by the recent flurry of activity within the Guyana Basin and Namibia’s sector of the Orange Basin. These basins have not only seen an increase in activity but... Читать дальше...
