Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 34, 19 June 2026.Integrated multi‐omic profiling maps the gene‐regulatory landscape of the coelomic mesothelium across heart, lung, and pancreas. A cardiac‐restricted regulatory program is uncovered in which TBX20 activates heart mesothelial (epicardial) cis‐regulatory elements, while MAF emerges as a conserved regulator of mesothelial identity.

Soft Power in Trade: Quantifying the Impact of Confucius Institutes on China's Exports
International Studies of Economics, Volume 21, Issue 2, Page 147-162, June 2026.ABSTRACT This paper investigates the role of Confucius Institutes (CIs) as a form of China's cultural diplomacy and their impact on international trade, particularly exports. Using a gravity model, we analyze data from 1990 to 2019 across countries, finding that the presence of CIs significantly boosts China's exports.

Programmable Fabric‐Based Soft Pneumatic Actuators for Wearables: A Review
Small Structures, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.This review summarizes recent advances in fabric soft pneumatic actuators (FSPAs), emphasizing programmable design strategies, diverse actuation deformation modes, material selection, and emerging applications. We highlight how geometric constraints, material distribution, and specialized fabrication methods govern longitudinal, bending, torsional, and

Trump's Transactional Diplomacy: Breakthrough or Breakdown?
Middle East Policy, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 24-40, Summer 2026.Abstract The US‐Israeli war on Iran appears to demonstrate the perils of a transactional diplomacy that dismisses the rules‐based, liberal international order in pursuit of American dominance. Much of the growing literature assumes transactional diplomacy will be a temporary, Trump‐driven departure from traditional, values‐based statecraft. By contrast,

Middle East Policy, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 41-56, Summer 2026.Abstract The Iranian revolution of 1979 is generally portrayed either as the catalyst of sectarian polarization in the Middle East or, more recently, as the foundation of a pragmatic grand strategy shaped by geopolitical insecurity and learning forged by decades of war. This article challenges this binary opposition between ideology and strategy.

Vernalization regulatory network identifies potential novel functions for genes in the HvVRN2 locus
New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 6, Page 4036-4053, June 2026.Summary Flowering is controlled by environmental and genetic factors. Vernalization requirement in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is determined by the allele in HvVRN1 and the presence of locus HvVRN2, which consists of two zinc‐finger and CONSTANS‐like domains (ZCCT) genes: HvVRN2a and HvVRN2b.
