New research led by Dr Amit Rawal, Lecturer in Management at Bayes Business School, along with Professor David Sarpong, Aston Business School, has developed a framework to guide a failed entrepreneur on how they can start again, as well as predicting the likely outcome of this relaunch.

A study by Anna Barbuscia has concluded that the worsening of women's general health following childbirth is more pronounced in cases in which the pregnancy is unplanned. The study has made a significant contribution to the scientific literature as it has approached the subject in an unusual way. By analysing pre- and post-natal data, it obtained more conclusive results than those extracted by other retrospective research.

A promising new catalyst could transform selective oxidation processes for light alkanes, as reported by scientists at Science Tokyo. In a recent study, they developed an iron-oxide-based perovskite that can turn isobutane into valuable products like tert-butyl alcohol under mild conditions. This catalyst, with the formula La_0.8Sr_0.2FeO_3−δ, achieves high selectivity, yield, and stability simultaneously, surpassing previous catalysts. Their efforts could lead to more efficient and sustainable synthesis of essential chemicals across various industries.
