TL;DR: This paper showed that the gender log wage gap in Sweden increases throughout the wage distribution and accelerates in the upper tail of the distribution, which they interpret as a glass ceiling effect, and examined whether this pattern can be asribed primarily to gender differences in labor market characteristics or to gender difference in rewards to those characteristics.

TL;DR: It is reported that transplants of embryonic substantia nigra, implanted into the parietal cortex m adult rats, are able to establish a new dopamlnerglc input to the previously denervated neostrlatum, and that the newly-formed 'nigrostHatal' DA pathway may compensate for at least some aspects of the lesion-induced motor disturbances.

TL;DR: The authors showed that the gender log wage gap in Sweden increases throughout the wage distribution and accelerates in the upper tail, interpreting this as a strong glass ceiling effect and using quantile regression decompositions to examine whether this pattern can be ascribed primarily to gender differences in labor market characteristics or in the rewards to those characteristics.

TL;DR: It is shown that the same strategy can be applied to human embryonic and postnatal fibroblasts and it is demonstrated that the converted neurons can be directed toward distinct functional neurotransmitter phenotypes when the appropriate transcriptional cues are provided together with the three conversion factors.

TL;DR: Grafted neurons can continue for a decade to store and release dopamine and give rise to substantial symptomatic relief in a patient with Parkinson's disease.
