Multimetallic Cooperativity in Uranium-Mediated CO2 Activation

Marinella Mazzanti

The metal-mediated redox transformation of CO2 in mild conditions is an area of great current interest. The role of cooperativity between a reduced metal center and a Lewis acid center in small-molecule activation is increasingly recognized, but has not so ...

The Social Maintenance of Cooperation through Hypocrisy

Marcel Salathé

Cooperation is widespread in human societies, but its maintenance at the group level remains puzzling if individuals benefit from not cooperating. Explanations of the maintenance of cooperation generally assume that cooperative and non-cooperative behavior ...
