Being active in both the insurance sector and the banking sector, financial conglomerates intrinsically increase the interconnections between the banking sector and the insurance sector.We new belial model address two main concerns about financial conglomerates using a unique database on bilateral exposures between 21 French financial institutions.
The soil-structure interaction (SSI) can significantly alter the characteristics of recorded motions in buildings.The ratio of Fourier amplitude spectrum of the top-story accelerations to that of the foundation accelerations permits the identification of the natural frequency of the fixed-base building.In this study, records of the Chi-Chi earthqua
Summary: Epilepsy is a circuit-level brain disorder characterized by hyperexcitatory seizures with unclear mechanisms.Here, we investigated the causal roles of calretinin (CR) neurons in the posterior intralaminar thalamic nucleus (PIL) in hippocampal seizures.Using c-fos mapping and calcium fiber photometry, we found that PIL CR neurons were activ
Summary: Clock neurons within the mammalian suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) encode circadian time using interlocked transcription-translation feedback loops (TTFLs) that drive rhythmic gene expression.However, the contributions of other transcription factors outside of the circadian TTFLs to the functionality of the SCN remain obscure.Here, we report
