We study an industry dynamics model where access to credit improves the bargaining position of firms with workers and increases the incentive to hire. To evaluate the importance of the bargaining channel for the hiring decisions of firms we estimate the model structurally with simulated methods of moments using data from Compustat and Capital IQ.

System dynamics is conspicuous by its absence in the major management education journals. At the same time, there are calls for better handling of complexity and new theory generation; areas where system dynamics can make a major contribution. This paper presents a simulation within a learning environment aimed at reinforcing organizational behavior concepts, especially emphasizing the intercon...

We analyse firms’ incentives to invest in scientific research as we characterize the optimal contracting of scientists intrinsically motivated to produce basic science. In our setting, firms face a large pool of heterogeneous scientists, with different degrees of scientific ability, and each scientist has reservation utility that is non-decreasing with their ability. Once hired scientists can s...

The MAP1LC3/LC3 (microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3) conjugation system is a key functional module in macroautophagy (henceforth autophagy) for efficient formation of autophagosomes and selective degradation of autophagosomal cargoes through the lysosome. Recently, it has been appreciated that LC3 and homologs (LC3s) have roles outside of canonical autophagy. One such example is the...
