Pyrethroid resistance in Anopheles funestus is a potential obstacle to malaria control in Africa. Tools are needed to detect resistance in field populations. We have been using a positional cloning...
A Simple Model of Advertising and Subscription (2008)
Traditional and modern mass media — such as television, newspapers, magazines, and Internet sites — typically derive the bulk of their revenues from advertisements rather than subscriptions. We...
doi:10.1016/j.bulm.2003.08.001 Pairwise Competition and the Replicator Equation (2008)
Spite in Hamilton’s sense is defined as the willingness to harm oneself in order to harm another more. The standard replicator dynamic predicts that evolutionarily stable strategies are...

The equilibrium model of Ellison, Fudenberg, and Möbius (2004) predicts that, if two competing auction sites are coexisting, then seller revenues and buyer-seller ratios on each site should be...
Shrouded Attributes and Information Suppression: Evidence from Field Experiments (2006)

Contracting for Information under Imperfect Commitment (2004)
Organizational theory suggests that authority should lie in the hands of those with information, yet the power to transfer authority is rarely absolute in practice. We investigate the validity and...
