Prior studies have found persistent gender segregation across majors in higher education. We build on this literature by documenting segregation within majors through examining student experiences at a student-by-course level. We measure the variation in the proportion of students’ classmates who ar...

Grazing is recognized as a major driver of changes in soil nutrient levels in steppe ecosystems. However, our understanding of the mechanisms underlying grazing-induced changes in deep soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks, total nitrogen (TN) stocks, soil enzyme activities, and microbial remains limited...

Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) MEG3 has been widely reported to be decreased in a growing list of primary human tumours and play a key role in tumour suppression. However, there are few reports about MEG3 expression and function in oesophagal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Here, we found that MEG3 exp...
