The return of protectionism: The impact of the Sino-US trade war
Chinese Academy of Sciences

This paper reviews the Sino-US trade war, analyzing its background, evolution, and economic consequences on both countries and the global economy. It also explores the reshaping of supply chains and the interplay between trade and industrial policies. Despite significant welfare losses, the trade war has had little effect on employment and failed to address trade imbalances or bring manufacturing jobs back to the US, offering a new perspective on the complexity of international trade conflicts.

Research Finds No Significant Negative Impact of Repealing a Depression-Era Law Allowing Companies to Pay Workers with Disabilities Below Minimum Wage
Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania

Debate continues to swirl nationally on the fate of a practice born of an 86-year-old federal statute allowing companies to pay workers with disabilities subminimum wages: anything below the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour, but for some roles as little as 25-cents-per-hour. Those in favor of repealing this statute highlight assumptions about reduced productivity along with the unfairness of this wage level—often used elsewhere to pay, for example, food service workers who typically make additional wages in tips. Those against repeal have voiced concerns that, without subminimum wage laws, employment opportunities for workers with disabilities may dwindle.

Low-Frequency Magnetic Field (LFMF) for Enhanced Carotenoids Production by Rhodotorula Glutinis
Chinese Academy of Sciences

The researchers verified that a LFMF promoted the inward absorption of iron ions and inhibited iron ion excretion, resulting in an elevated iron ion concentration within the cell. This, in turn, stimulated carotenoid synthesis by R. mucilaginosa.

One or Many? Exploring the Population Groups of the Largest Animal on Earth
University of Washington

New research shows that Antarctic blue whales are likely a single population, rather than several isolated populations -- information that will help conservationists as the whales, the world's largest animal, try to recover from historic lows due to 20th century whaling.
