There is a strong, positive, and well-documented correlation between education and health
outcomes. In this paper, we attempt to understand to what extent this relationship is causal. …

We use detailed data from New York City to estimate how the characteristics of school principals
relate to school performance, as measured by students’ standardized exam scores and …

Many animals rely on visual motion detection for survival. Motion information is extracted
from spatiotemporal intensity patterns on the retina, a paradigmatic neural computation. A …

In this paper I assess the impact of the youth labour market on enrolment in post‐compulsory
education. To that end, I construct data for a panel of English regions and identify youth …

INTRODUCTION Fibroblasts produce extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules that regulate
tissue strength and resilience. Imbalanced ECM maintenance leads to tissue dysfunction. …

This paper studies a recent British reform that allowed public high schools to opt out of local
authority control and become autonomous schools funded directly by the central government…

Abstract Comparison of mammalian brain parts has often focused on differences in absolute
size 1 , 2 , 3 , revealing only a general tendency for all parts to grow together 2 . Attempts to …

The algorithms and neural circuits that process spatio-temporal changes in luminance to
extract visual motion cues have been the focus of intense research. An influential model, the …

In this paper I consider the impact of attending a selective high school in the UK. Students are
assigned to these schools on the basis of a test taken in primary school and, using data on …

The thermotactic behaviors of Caenorhabditis elegans indicate that its thermosensory system
exhibits exquisite temperature sensitivity, long-term plasticity, and the ability to transform …
