Featured paper: Not Incentivized Yet Efficient: Working From Home in the Public Sector
Is working from home in the public sector a productivity game changer? In this episode, we break down new research on remote work in a unique setting: the Greater Manchester Police’s Crime Recording and Resolution Unit. Discover how working from home boosts productivity by 12%, reduces absenteeism, and why good management can nearly double these gains. We’ll explore what drives these improvements, the role of supervisors, and whether going fully remote offers extra benefits. Tune in for practical insights on remote work, management, and what this means for the future of public sector jobs.*Disclaimer: This content was generated by NotebookLM and has been reviewed for accuracy by Dr. Tram.*

Featured paper: Independent control of matrix adhesiveness and stiffness within a 3D self-assembling peptide hydrogelExplore how a new “smart gel” is helping scientists uncover the secrets of how cells sense and respond to their environment. We explore how controlling both stiffness and stickiness in 3D can reveal how cells make decisions, become different cell types, and what this means for the future of stem cell research and regenerative medicine.

Featured paper: Accommodative tissues influence the shape of the cornea and potentially drive corneal morphogenesis

Discover how tiny, often-overlooked tissues inside the eye—like the ciliary body and zonules—play a big role in shaping your vision. Dr. Tram explains new research on how these “hidden architects” influence corneal development, what happens when they change with age or disease, and why understanding their biomechanics could lead to better treatments for vision problems.
