People skills, strategic skills, and IT skills all carry strong and significant wage premia; problemsolving skills (surprisingly) and physical skills (less surprisingly) do not. In contrast to the impact of school curriculum on subsequent earnings...

Benchtop studies are often used to evaluate cardiac ablation techniques, and commonly utilize ex-vivo animal tissues. While widely available, tissues do not consistently replicate live atrial tissue physical properties, adding variability. Tissue mimicking phantoms have been in non-cardiac studies, but their mechanical electrical properties may mimic tissue. Furthermore, analysis of lesions has...
