Creation of drug-specific herpes simplex virus type 1 thymidine kinase mutants for gene therapy.

abstract：:One of the most basic predictions of almost any model of crime is that individual time preferences matter. However, empirical evidence on this fundamental property is essentially nonexistent. To our knowledge, this paper provides the first pieces of evidence on the link between time discounting and crime. We use a uni...
