Skeletal muscle is crucial to metabolic health. Environmental cues, such as feeding and physical activity, are essential for the maintenance of muscle mass. These cues converge on the signaling node, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex 1 (mTORC1). This signaling node is the primary site of regulation for anabo...

Albumin hitchhiking has been applied in the vaccine development by conjugating peptides or adjuvants to an amphipathic lipid that can bind to albumin and thus deliver immunogens and adjuvants to lymph nodes. While many studies have shown that albumin hitchhiking can boost immune responses by increasing antigen-specific...

Research and development (R&D) competition generates innovation but can also produce socially wasteful duplication of effort. In our thesis, we model this dynamic through a stochastic all-pay auction, where firms make sunk-cost investments to increase their chances of obtaining a technological prize. Equilibrium and we...
