Inference of Impulse Responses via Bayesian Graphical Structural VAR Models by Daniel Felix Ahelegbey

“…The BGSVAR framework provides a more efficient and interpretable method for estimating IRFs, which can enhance both forecasting performance and structural inferences in economic modelling. Through extensive simulations across various data-generating processes, we evaluate BGSVAR’s effectiveness in modelling dynamic interactions among US macroeconomic variables. …”

An integrated structural and biophysical approach to study carbon metabolism in Mycobacterium tuberculosis by Evelyn Y.-W. Huang, Francis Kuang, Haozhe Wu, Chai Xin Yu, Xiaoxu Chen, Glenda Vasku, Le Thao Anh Nguyen, Katherine J. Jeppe, Anna K. Coussens, Brooke X.C. Kwai, Ivanhoe K.H. Leung

“…To fully understand their roles and modulation, it is crucial to investigate the relationship between their structure, catalytic mechanism, and function. In this perspective, by using three examples from our studies on Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) isocitrate lyase and related proteins, we highlight how an integrated approach combining structural, activity, and biophysical data provides insights into their biological functions. …”
