We study consumer search behavior in a brick-and-mortar store environment, using a unique data set obtained from radio frequency identification tags, which are attached to supermarket shopping carts. This technology allows us to record consumers’ purchases as well as the time they spent in front of the shelf when contemplating which product to buy, giving us a direct measure of search effort. W...

Vaults may contribute to multidrug resistance by transporting drugs away from their subcellular targets. To study the involvement of vaults in the extrusion of anthracyclines from the nucleus, we investigated the handling of daunorubicin by drug-sensitive and drug-resistant non-small lung cancer cells, including a green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged major vault protein (MVP)-overexpressing t...

previous studies have shown that the receptive field properties, spontaneous activity and spatio-temporal interactions of low-threshold mechanical somatosensory cells in the barrel cortex are influenced by c-fibers. in this study, we examined the effect of c-fiber depletion on response properties of barrel cortex neurons following experience dependent plasticity. methods: in this study, exterac...

The world oil market is modelled as a two-person non-zero-sum game in normal form with each player having a continuum of strategies. The two players are the oil importing nations (OPIC) and the oil exporting nations (OPEC). The game is solved in the noncooperative sense using the equilibrium point solution concept due to Nash. The Nash equilibrium point solution yields an analytic expression fo...

When experiments are performed on social networks, it is difficult to justify the usual assumption of treatment-unit additivity, due to the connections between actors in the network. We investigate how connections between experimental units affect the design of experiments on those experimental units. Specifically, where we have unstructured treatments, whose effects propagate according to a li...
