The human mutation rate is increasing, even as it slows.
Substitution rates vary between species, and many explanations regarding the causes of this variation have been proposed. Here we consider how new genomic data on the per-generation mutation rate impinge on proposed hypotheses for substitution rate variation in primates. We propose that the generation-time effect as it is usually understood cannot explain the observed rate variation, but instea...
متن کاملOlfaction: When Nostrils Compete
In vision, alternating percepts occur when two different visual stimuli are presented separately to the two eyes. By analogy, simultaneous presentation of two different odorants separately to the two nostrils has now been shown to cause alternating odor percepts, an effect termed 'binaral rivalry'.

متن کاملInformation Sharing When Firms Compete for Common-Value Customers
Extant research suggests that the sharing of individual-level customer information benefits competing firms by allowing them to better discriminate their customers and soften the price competition. This paper shows that the information sharing may benefit competing firms even without price discrimination. Based on a common-value auction framework, the paper studies the case where two firms comp...
متن کاملA Penny Saved Is Not a Penny Earned: When Decisions to Earn and Save Compete for Consumer Resources
Policy makers, practitioners, and researchers emphasize the importance of consumers developing capabilities to improve their financial well-being. Key principles concern the management of two integral resources: earnings and savings. Although prior research has examined factors influencing those resources independently, less is known about how earn-save decisions are made in conjunction: for ex...
