Optimizing the train timetable in a high-speed rail corridor: The implications on departure time, fare cost and seat preference of passengers. by Zhipeng Huang, Limin Yang, Jinlian Li, Tao Zhang, Zixian Qu, Yusen Miao

“…Impedance functions for various network arcs are developed, incorporating these three key attributes of travel demand and transforming the passenger travel choice issue into a path selection problem within the TSSN. A bi-level programming model is formulated: the upper level optimizes train operations and fare structures, while the lower level employs user equilibrium (UE) theory to distribute OD passenger demands across trains. …”

Essential to students’ intercultural learning abroad? Faculty intercultural development as key to leverage effective pedagogies by Anne Gibson, Ezra Spira-Cohen, Nina Namaste, Whitney Sherman

“…In this study we analyze a particular faculty development structure as a model of effectiveness. Part of a larger study examining student learning on Council on International Educational Exchange (CIEE) programs, this article analyzes 22 educator interviews, specifically grouping and categorizing their stated pedagogical tactics, and found that this organization’s intentional, highly mentored, relationship-rich faculty development program—centered on their own intercultural learning and growth—helped educators leverage pedagogies to effectively foster students’ intercultural learning. …”

Stress‐sensitive dynamics of miRNAs and Elba1 in Drosophila embryogenesis by Lovisa Örkenby, Signe Skog, Helen Ekman, Alessandro Gozzo, Unn Kugelberg, Rashmi Ramesh, Srivathsa Magadi, Gianluca Zambanini, Anna Nordin, Claudio Cantú, Daniel Nätt, Anita Öst

“…Abstract Early‐life stress can result in life‐long effects that impact adult health and disease risk, but little is known about how such programming is established and maintained. Here, we show that such epigenetic memories can be initiated in the Drosophila embryo before the major wave of zygotic transcription, and higher‐order chromatin structures are established. …”
