Summary: One of the most debated topics in corporate sustainability literature is the business case. While it has long been praised for connecting profit motives with environmental initiatives, it is now facing vehement criticism. Some argue for stronger regulatory frameworks, while others believe that the private sector's capabilities are crucial for driving sustainability innovations. This article seeks to unite these differing views by emphasizing the need for a broader stakeholder approach that focuses on impacts, collaboration, and economic restraint.

Summary: The use of imaging systems in protein crystallisation eliminates the need for manual inspection of experimental setups. However, finding images with useful information about the experiments becomes a challenge. In 2018, a deep learning approach achieved higher accuracy than humans in classifying images, aided by a labelled training set from multiple laboratories. While the MARCO classification model does not perform as well on local data, retraining the model with local images can partially improve its performance.

Summary: This study found that the work-connected behavior of employees during non-working hours has a double-edged sword effect on their work and family. Work-family enrichment can positively impact thriving at work and family, but it can also lead to work-family conflict. The support from family members moderates this effect, strengthening positive impact and reducing negative impact.
