Addressing The Impact Of Foreign State-Owned Companies: Implications For Fair And Effective Merger Control, Annika Stöhr, Oliver Budzinski

Yearbook of Antitrust and Regulatory Studies

State-owned firms from third countries play an increasingly significant role in international mergers and acquisitions, raising concerns about distortions of competition. These distortions arise from state-backed financial advantages, preferential treatment, and industrial policy objectives, potentially undermining market competition. This paper categorises different forms of competitive distortions, focusing on acquisitions financed by foreign state resources. Through an analysis of German and EU merger control cases (2012-2023), we assess the extent of this phenomenon and the treatment of such transactions by the respective competition authorities. While direct state involvement remains rare, it is prevalent in strategic industries such as energy and transport. …

Evaluating Anti-Sickling Therapies For Sickle Cell Disease: A Microfluidic Assay For Red Blood Cell-Mediated Microvascular Occlusion Under Hypoxia, Zoe Sekyonda, Yuxuan Du, Solomon Oshabaheebwa, Payam Fadaei, Yusang B. Ley, Calvin Abonga, Michael A. Suster, Pedram Mohseni, Umut A. Gurkan

Faculty Scholarship

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is characterized by the polymerization of hemoglobin S (HbS) upon deoxygenation, leading to the formation of sickled red blood cells (RBCs) with reduced deformability. Under hypoxic conditions, the impaired RBC behavior significantly contributes to vaso-occlusive events, hemolysis, and end-organ damage. Consequently, RBC deformability serves as a pivotal hemorheological biomarker for evaluating disease severity and therapeutic response. The OcclusionChip, a microfluidic assay, measures RBCs deformability through microcapillary occlusion. However, its current hypoxic assay relies on a complex nitrogen gas setup, rendering it bulky, expensive, and unsuitable for point-of-care diagnostic use. Here, we optimized a chemically induced hypoxia …

Faculty Research 2025

SUMMARY: Lack of data integration remains a significant impediment to cancer research, and many analyses still require customized software to transform and prepare cancer data. We describe a software package to harmonize genetic and clinical cancer data into the GA4GH Phenopacket schema, an ISO standard for representing clinical case data. We integrated demographic, mutation, morphology, diagnosis, intervention, and survival data using case data from the National Cancer Institute for 12 cancer types. The Phenopacket standard provides a foundation for downstream use, including sophisticated statistical and AI/ML analyses. We demonstrate fitness for purpose by using the integrated data to recapitulate a …

Histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) are crucial to eukaryotic genome regulation, with a range of reported functions and mechanisms of action. Though often studied individually, it has long been recognized that the modifications function by combinatorial synergy or antagonism. Interplay may involve PTMs on the same histone, within the same nucleosome (containing a histone octamer), or between nucleosomes in higher-order chromatin. Given this, the field must distinguish ever greater complexity, and the context in which it is studied, with brevity and precision. The proteoform was introduced to define individual forms of a protein by sequence and PTMs, followed by the nucleoform …

Wearpghdprovo: An Extension Of Pghdprovo For Wearables, Abdullahi Abubakar Kawu, Dympna O'Sullivan, Lucy Hederman

Research Outputs: 2025-Present

Wearable devices are increasingly used to create patient generated health data (PGHD), yet existing models lack the specificity to fully capture the nuances of this data. This paper presents an initial work on WearPGHDProv, an extension of the PGHDProvO ontology, designed to address this gap. We extended the PGHDProvO ontology using a top-down approach, incorporating concepts from the W3C Provenance Ontology (PROV-O) and domain-specific terms related to wearable devices and data generation. WearPGHDProv introduces new classes and properties to model device-specific information, additional related information unique to wearable data, and the context of data collection. This extension enhances the ability …

Cancer drug resistance poses a significant challenge in oncology, often driven by intricate cross-talk among membrane-bound receptors that compromise mono-targeted therapies. We develop a dual membrane receptor degradation strategy leveraging Folate Receptor α (FRα) to address this issue. Folate Receptor α Targeting Chimeras-dual (FolTAC-dual) are engineered degraders designed to selectively and simultaneously degrade distinct receptor pairs: (1) EGFR/HER2 and (2) PD-L1/VISTA. Through modular optimization of modality configurations and geometries, we identify the “string” format as the most effective construct. Mechanistic studies demonstrate an ~85% increase in EGFR-binding affinity compared to the conventional knob-into-hole design, likely contributing to the improved efficiency …
