A tenure track appointment grants one the privilege of focusing primarily on research for a period of 5 years, with a limited teaching load.
The proliferation of integration agreements has created a tangle of overlapping agreements, the Spaghetti Bowl (SB). In this project, we use network analysis to measure the SB and gravity modelling to estimate its impact on trade. We simulate trade integration, including the SB, to assess whether it acts as a stumbling block or stepping stone in the path towards multilateralism.
The DNA double helix is often involved in processes where it is mechanically deformed in interactions with other biomolecules and due to thermal fluctuations. Experimental results from various techniques have shown that if these deformations are weak the DNA can be described as a continuum elastic rod. However, there is mounting experimental evidence showing that at short distances DNA is much more flexible than the elastic rod model would ...
Total hip replacement (THR) is one of the most frequently performed orthopedic surgeries. Despite the fact that THR is a successful operation with relatively high survival rates, a large absolute number of revisions are needed. The main reason for revision is aseptic loosening, often caused by osteolysis, the process of bone resorption due to the excessive presence of particles, mostly PE particles originating from the implant. Attempts ...
