Abstract:
Sustainability, conceptualised as the integration of economic, social and environmental values, is the 21st century imperative that demands that governments, business and civil society actors improve their existing performance, yet improvement has been highly fragmented and unacceptably slow. One explanation for this is the lack of diversity on the boards of organisations that perpetuates a narrow business, economic and legal mindset rather than the broader integrated values approach that sustainability requires. This paper presents a systematic review of the literature investigating how board

Abstract:
This paper delves into the realm of demographic diversity within corporate boards, specifically focusing on the dimensions of gender diversity and board nationality. Demographic diversity encompasses a range of attributes including gender, nationality, ethnicity, interlocks, and political connections of board directors. Gender diversity, characterized by the proportional representation of women on corporate boards, has emerged as a pivotal area of interest for researchers and policymakers worldwide. The presence of women directors varies across countries and continents, prompting a growing int

Abstract:
We proxy for board members’ opinions and values using directors’ ancestral origins and show that diversity has costs and benefits, leading to high performance volatility. Consistent with the idea that diverse groups experiment more, firms with ancestrally diverse boards have more numerous and more cited patents. In addition, their strategies conform less to those of the industry peers. However, firms with greater ancestral diversity also have more board meetings and make less predictable decisions. These findings suggest that diversity may lead to inefficiencies in the decision-making process

Abstract:
FY-3E WindRAD (Fengyun-3E Wind Radar) is a dual-frequency rotating fan-beam scatterometer. Its data characteristics, NOC (NWP Ocean Calibration), and wind retrieval performance are investigated in this paper. The diversity of the radar view geometry varies across the swaths, with maximum diversity in the sweet swaths and limited diversity in the outer and nadir swaths. When NOC backscatter calibration coefficients are computed as a function of incidence angle only (NOCint), a smooth correction is found. However, when relative antenna azimuth angle is included (NOCant), it appears that the corr

Abstract:
Companies have been encouraged by policy to place women on board and top management positions. Proposals from regulators and governance reforms explicitly stress the importance of gender diversity in the boardroom. This paper analyzes the impact of the presence of women in executive and non-executive positions, as Chairs, CEOs or CFOs, on firm value in the context of European public companies. The results suggest that the presence of women impacts firm value positively. The results also suggest that, in countries governed by women, firm values are higher.

Corporate survival in these difficult times necessitates the agitation for the long-term growth of the companies. Sustainable growth is defined as growth witnessed by a company in a stand-alone position without any outside finance. Sustainability in a term of long-term growth is obtained through the existence of effective qualities of the board of directors.

These are likely attributable to antibiotic exposure, nutritional alterations, and intestinal mucosa injury from high-dose chemotherapy. Patients undergoing autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHCT) also receive antibiotics and experience nutritional alterations due to mucositis and other gastrointestinal toxicities.

Abstract Introduction: Daratumumab (DARA) is a human monoclonal IgG1κ CD38-targeting antibody that functions through several mechanisms of action (MOA), including CDC, ADCC, ADCP and induction of apoptosis. An additional, novel role of immune modulation and increased adaptive immune response was revealed from translational studies of DARA (16 mg/kg) in single-agent, phase 1/2 studies (SIRIUS [MMY2002] and GEN501; Krejcik J et al, Blood 2016;128:384-94). To further explore the ability of DARA to promote adaptive T-cell responses, we profiled T-cell repertoires (TCR) to evaluate T-cell clonality
