Design and Testing of a Minimal Configuration Underwater Micro‐Glider: Automating Lake and Reservoir Monitoring

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Uncrewed underwater vehicles (UUVs) have transformed oceanographic research through autonomous data gathering. Similarly, lake and other aquatic research can potentially be automated and transformed. However, UUVs would need to be smaller, lighter, less complex, and cheaper than currently available to make them more practical and user‐friendly

Monosodium L-glutamate affects orthodontic outcomes by inhibiting hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis function

Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences
Background: Orthodontic treatment involves complex bone remodeling, with the Osteoprotegerin (OPG)/Receptor Activator of nuclear factor Kappa-B Ligand (RANKL)/Receptor activator of nuclear factor Kappa-B (RANK) (OPG/RANKL/RANK) signaling pathway ...

A Model Based Systems Engineering Framework for Digital Twins in Medical Device Innovation

Systems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Medical device development remains constrained by development processes centered largely in the physical domain. These methods limited early understanding of system behavior and prolonged timelines relative to other innovation pathways. Such limitations increase prototype cycle duration and the number of iterations required to resolve design ...

Progress in bone tissue engineering biomaterials: Development, challenges, and prospects

VIEW, EarlyView.
Scheme 1 Application of biomaterials in immunomodulation during bone tissue engineering. Abstract Bone defect repair remains a major clinical challenge in orthopedics. Over 2 million cases caused by trauma, tumors, and other factors occur annually, with large‐scale defects posing a particular bottleneck due to limited self‐healing capacity.

Micro-Osteoperforations Accelerate Tooth Movement without Exacerbating the Progression of Root Resorption in Rats

Biomolecules
A recent study reported that micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) accelerated tooth movement by activating alveolar bone remodeling. However, very little is known about the relationship between MOPs and external apical root resorption during orthodontic ...

A reappraisal of the Middle to Later Stone Age prehistory of Morocco Réévaluer la préhistoire du Maroc, du Middle Stone Age au Later Stone Age

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Over the last 25 years, perceptions of the early prehistory of Northwest Africa have undergone radical changes due to new fieldwork projects and a corresponding growth in scientific interest in the region. Much of this work has been focused in Morocco, known for its extremely rich fossil and archaeological records in caves and rock shelters.
