Wanna Get Away? Regression Discontinuity Estimation of Exam School Effects Away From the Cutoff

The one that didn't get away.

My part in a lifesaving drama was small... or so I thought.

This chapter introduces the Random Modulation Pre-Integrator (RMPI) and details the status of an integrated circuit implementing the architecture. To our knowledge, this is the first full-speed hardware RMPI in existence. The goal of this chapter is to describe some key parameters of the RMPI that are essential to its performance. This is not a hardware chapter and does not go into detail of th...

Step Away from the Pool

Lane Kenworthy University of Arizona [email protected] administer the “treatment” to some observations. Then we compare the degree of change in both (or all, if there are more than two) groups. With observational data we don’t administer the treatment, but in other respects the process is similar. Especially useful is that this design takes constant countryspecific differences (“country ...

Resistance: How VanA Strains Get Away With It

The longstanding invincibility of vancomycin (VC) – the last line of antimicrobial therapy for lifethreatening Gram-positive infections – has been compromised over the past decade. The most common and best understood mode of resistance, the VanA type, consists of the replacement of an ester O for an amide NH in the peptide target recognized by the glycopeptide antibiotic. VC targets the C-termi...
