is based on Master Project [4] and article [3] by Soren Klim and Stig Mortensen Objectives: Insulin and C-peptide are secreted in equi-molar amounts from the beta-cells then passing through the liver before entering systemic circulation. The variable first pass effect on insulin due to hepatic extraction makes the insulin observations unusable for determining the secretion rate. C-peptid passes...

This paper demonstrates the important role of job displacement in the household bankruptcy decision. I develop a dynamic, forward-looking model of unemployment and bankruptcy where persistent negative income shocks increase a household’s likelihood of filing for bankruptcy both immediately and in the future. Consistent with the model’s predictions, I find that households in the NLSY are four ti...

Eight out thirty‐two tribes fall under Primitive Tribal Group (PTG). lives closely associated with nature as they eke their livelihoods from natural environ – streams, tr...

We present a novel methodology for combining breast image data obtained at different times, in different geometries, and by different techniques. We combine data based on diffuse optical tomography (DOT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The software platform integrates advanced multimodal registration and segmentation algorithms, requires minimal user experience, and employs computationall...

Brunetto Tarquini, head of Internal Medicine at the University of Florence, Italy, died at the peak of a productive career. A few days before his passing, his contributions to the 6th National Congress of the Italian Society for Chronobiology in Chianciano Terme—in the footsteps of the Roman poet Horace and the emperor Augustus (Rastrelli 1999; Soren and Romer 1999)—exuded scholarship, which we...

We consider an revealed preference based method which will partition consumer microdata into an approximate minimal number of preference types such that the data are perfectly rationalisable by standard utility theory. This provides a simple, nonparametric and theory-driven way of investigating unobserved preference heterogeneity in empirical data, and easily extends to any choice model which h...

Three dimensional (3D) models of deceased and injured people in combination with 3D scans of injury causing objects can assist forensic investigations in reconstructing event scenes. Medical imaging techniques, such as post-mortem computed tomography (PMCT) and post-mortem magnetic resonance imaging (PMMR), have been successfully applied to forensic investigations and can add beneficial value t...
