We show how labour market restrictions, such as firing costs, and bail-outs may arise as useful institutions to support investment in specific human capital. The specificity of human capital is determined endogenously. While specific human capital is more productive than the general human capital, it cannot be reallocated across industries. Accordingly, the optimal fraction of individuals with ...

Contemporary advances in microfluidic and molecular techniques have enabled coral studies to shift from reef colony scales polyp- molecular-level investigations. Polyp bail-out provides an alternative approach acquire solitary polyps for at finer scales. Although induction of polyp has been reported several studies, health after not investigated. In this study, we monitored morphological geneti...

With the advent of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), many AS patients, formerly considered inoperable, can receive effective treatment. The relief of the left ventricular pressure overload could lead, in some cases, to the occurrence of dynamic intracavity pressure gradients (DIG) with deleterious clinical impact. This phenomenon resembles the physiology seen in hypertrophic obstr...

The pilot is promoted as a taster for life as a student, and ultimately a nurse. In this context, a ten per cent bail-out after fi ve months could be a sign of success. Our research found that some of the healthcare assistants (HCAs) decided nursing was not for them; others were homesick. It is much better for people to discover sooner rather than later they are not ready for what can be a chal...
