The Impact Of The European Carbon Market On Firm Productivity: Evidence From Italian Manufacturing Firms, Filippo Maria D'Arcangelo, Giulia Pavan, Sara Calligaris

Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei Working Papers

The European Union Emissions Trading System has raised concerns about possible detrimental effects on firms production through an increase in polluting costs, unless firms change inputs or increase the efficiency in the way they produce. We provide evidence of the causal impact of this policy on firms' input choices and on total factor productivity on Italian manufacturing firms. Our empirical strategy combines structural estimation of firms' production function and techniques for policy evaluation. Moreover, we argue that a commonly used strategy in this literature, consisting in using propensity score matching on the productivity obtained from estimating the production function, does …

Sustaining The Individual In The Collective: A Kantian Perspective For A Sustainable World, Zachary Vereb

Faculty and Student Publications

Individualist normative theories appear inadequate for the complex moral challenges of climate change. In climate ethics, this is especially notable with the relative marginalization of Kant. I argue that Kant's philosophy, understood through its historical and cosmopolitan dimensions, has untapped potential for the climate crisis. First, I situate Kant in climate ethics and evaluate his marginalization due to perceived individualism, interiority and anthropocentrism. Then, I explore aspects of Kant's historical and cosmopolitan writings, which present a global, future-orientated picture of humanity. Ultimately, Kant's philosophy offers a unique take on the climate deadlock capable of sustaining the individual in the collective.

Leveraging Natural Learning Processing To Uncover Themes In Clinical Notes Of Patients Admitted For Heart Failure, Ankita Agarwal, Krishnaprasad Thirunarayan, William Romine, Amanuel Alambo, Mia Cajita, Tanvi Banerjee

Computer Science and Engineering Faculty Publications

Heart failure occurs when the heart is not able to pump blood and oxygen to support other organs in the body as it should. Treatments include medications and sometimes hospitalization. Patients with heart failure can have both cardiovascular as well as non-cardiovascular comorbidities. Clinical notes of patients with heart failure can be analyzed to gain insight into the topics discussed in these notes and the major comorbidities in these patients. In this regard, we apply machine learning techniques, such as topic modeling, to identify the major themes found in the clinical notes specific to the procedures performed on 1,200 patients …

How Engineering Education Guilds Are Expanding Our Understanding Of Propagation In Engineering Education, Kaitlin Mallouk, Alexandra C. Strong, Darby R. Riley, Courtney J. Faber

Henry M. Rowan College of Engineering Departmental Research

Background: The National Science Foundation (NSF) and other organizations have spent millions of dollars each year supporting well-designed educational innovations that positively impact the undergraduate engineering students who encounter them. However, many of these pedagogical innovations never experience widespread adoption. To further the ability of innovation developers to advance engineering education practice and achieve sustained adoption of their innovations, this paper focuses on exploring how one community-based model, engineering education guilds, fosters propagation across institutions and individuals. Engineering education guilds seek to work at the forefront of educational innovation by creating networks of instructor change-agents who design and implement a …

Single-Cell Rna Sequencing Reveals Molecular Features Of Heterogeneity In The Murine Retinal Pigment Epithelium., Ravi S Pandey, Mark P. Krebs, Mohan Bolisetty, Jeremy R. Charette, Juergen K. Naggert, Paul Robson, Patsy M. Nishina, Gregory W. Carter

Faculty Research 2022

Transcriptomic analysis of the mammalian retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) aims to identify cellular networks that influence ocular development, maintenance, function, and disease. However, available evidence points to RPE cell heterogeneity within native tissue, which adds complexity to global transcriptomic analysis. Here, to assess cell heterogeneity, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing of RPE cells from two young adult male C57BL/6J mice. Following quality control to ensure robust transcript identification limited to cell singlets, we detected 13,858 transcripts among 2667 and 2846 RPE cells. Dimensional reduction by principal component analysis and uniform manifold approximation and projection revealed six distinct cell populations. All …

Oncocytic Papillary Cystadenoma Of The Larynx: A Rare And Masquerading Entity., Samuel Bosco, James Ding, Christopher Fundakowski

Otolaryngology (ENT) Resident Research

We cared for a 59-year-old female smoker who presented with a supraglottic lesion mimicking a laryngeal saccular cyst. The lesion was found to be a oncocytic papillary cystadenoma. This is a rare, benign neoplasm that accounts for 2–4.7% of minor salivary gland neoplasms. Oncocytic papillary cystadenoma of the larynx is even more rare, compromising less than 1% of all benign laryngeal neoplasms. This case highlights the importance of comprehensive differential diagnosis for cystic laryngeal lesions.

Food and Machinery

Objective:To explore the relationship between functional properties of rice glutelin fibril aggregates (RGFAs) solution formed by different storage and heating time.Methods:The RGFAs samples were prepared by heating rice glutelin (RG) at 85 ℃ and pH 2.0 for 2~15 h, and stored at 4 ℃ for 1 day and 4 days, respectively. The surface hydrophobicity, emulsifying property, shear viscosity of RGFAs samples as well as the gelatinization characteristics and hydrolysis rate of the mixture of RGFAs and starch were measured.Results:After storage at 4 ℃ for 4 days, the emulsifying properties were significantly improved. The surface hydrophobicity …
