Predicting Adult Criminal Behavior from Juvenile Delinquency: Ex-Ante vs. Ex-Post Benefits of Early Intervention.

Advances in life course research

White BA, Temple JA, Reynolds AJ.
PMID: 27867324
Adv Life Course Res. 2010 Dec;15(4):161-170. doi: 10.1016/j.alcr.2010.10.005.

Budget constraints and difficulty raising taxes limit school districts from expanding education programming even when research shows that additional expenditures would generate economic benefits that are greater than costs. Recently, coalitions of private investors, philanthropists, education practitioners, and government...

The Role of Light-Dark Regulation of the Chloroplast ATP Synthase.

Frontiers in plant science

Kohzuma K, Froehlich JE, Davis GA, Temple JA, Minhas D, Dhingra A, Cruz JA, Kramer DM.
PMID: 28791032
Front Plant Sci. 2017 Jul 24;8:1248. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2017.01248. eCollection 2017.

The chloroplast ATP synthase catalyzes the light-driven synthesis of ATP and is activated in the light and inactivated in the dark by redox-modulation through the thioredoxin system. It has been proposed that this down-regulation is important for preventing wasteful...
