The authors looked at unionization petitions from Starbucks workers between August 2021 and July 2024 to determine what factors influence votes for or against unionization.

The authors looked at potential downstream effects of raising the minimum wage. Specifically they focused on taxable wages, employment, and firm counts.

Coronary artery disease, the leading cause of death worldwide, results from cholesterol build-up in coronary arteries, limiting blood and oxygen flow to the heart. This study investigated the use of gold and silver nanoparticles coated with aspirin and activated by near-infrared light to improve blood flow in a clogged artery model. The nanoparticles increased simulated blood flow rates, demonstrating potential as a less invasive and more targeted treatment for cardiovascular disease.

Seeking an approach to address the increasing levels of methane and chlorinated hydrocarbons that threaten the environment, the authors worked to develop a novel, low-cost biotrickling filter for use as an ex situ method tailored to marine environments. By using methanotrophic bacteria in the filter, they observed methane degradation, suggesting the feasibility of chlorinated hydrocarbon degradation.

The authors examined the relationships between S&P 500 Technology and Financials equity sectors and their corresponding investment-grade fixed-income markets from 1995 to 2025.

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are a great tool to model and study complex biological systems. In this paper, the authors use MD simulations to construct and simulate a model of the periplasmic space, the peptidoglycan layer and its associated proteins, in an Escherichia coli cell.

This study used single-cell RNA sequencing to examine whether B cells can predict response to pembrolizumab and radiation therapy in patients with triple-negative breast cancer.

The authors looked at the impacts of short-chain fatty acids on muscle fiber formation as well as insulin sensitivity using a model of mouse myoblasts.

This study analyzes over two decades of monitoring data (1999-2022) to investigate how legacy mining, reservoir water releases, and dredging activities influence toxic methylmercury (MeHg) levels in San Francisco Bay. The findings reveal a significant delayed correlation between river flow and San Francisco Bay MeHg, and counter to the authors' hypothesis, a strong association between increased MeHg concentrations in the bay and both total annual dredging volume and beneficial sediment reuse / upland sediment disposal.

The authors looked at the dynamics of tennis serves from professional and amateur athletes.
