Cationic‐Hydrophilic Di‐Block Copolymers: Surface‐Shielded Vectors for Gene Delivery

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1419-1432, 15 March 2025.
This study develops synthetic polycationic di‐block carriers for nucleic acid (NA) delivery in gene therapy. Consisting of a cationic block and a hydrophilic block, these carriers efficiently form complexes with NAs and shield them with a protective bioinert layer, enhancing stability during circulation in the bloodstream while reducing undesirable ...

Planting for healthy air: Urban biodiversity enhances natural chemical environments

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Cities urgently need nature to improve public health, support biodiversity, and increase resilience to climate change. Yet not all green spaces offer the same benefits. In this study, we show that more diverse urban plantings create richer “chemical environments”; subtle, naturally scented atmospheres formed by plant emissions that can influence how ...

Aboveground herbivory elevates belowground rhizosphere volatile organic compound concentrations in ambient and polluted air, independent of volatile sampling methodology

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The effect of air pollution on plants is still underexplored, especially belowground. We used a field facility that released diesel exhaust and ozone at concentrations equivalent to those near a busy road in Reading, UK, to measure belowground gas exchange of Scots pine together with feeding by large pine weevils, a major pest of conifers.

Female Melanostoma hoverflies pollinate Cypripedium yatabeanum through a Paphiopedilum‐like floral trap

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Conserving rare plants requires understanding the ecological interactions that enable their reproduction. Although most studied Cypripedium species are pollinated by bees, the pollinators of many slipper orchids remain undocumented. We show that Cypripedium yatabeanum is pollinated by female aphidophagous hoverflies despite sharing broadly similar ...

In planta fluxapyroxad gradients from seed treatment differentially select fungicide‐sensitive and reduced‐sensitive genotypes of Pyrenophora teres f. maculata

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Spatial concentration gradients of seed‐applied fluxapyroxad within barley create heterogeneous exposure environments, driving differential suppression of succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor‐sensitive Pyrenophora teres f. maculata isolates and enrichment of reduced‐sensitive genotypes, thereby shaping within‐host fungicide resistance selection dynamics ...

Latin America's First Active and Intelligent Packaging for Organ Transportation

open access: yesPackaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract features Latin America's first active and intelligent packaging for organ transportation (EMAIS‐SR). The image illustrates the device alongside its core features: active temperature control, real‐time monitoring, autonomous battery‐powered operation and biological safety.

University teaching of mass spectrometry as a key practical technique within the context of a fully integrated, spiral curriculum

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, EarlyView.
Rationale Mass spectrometry (MS) is introduced to high school students in the UK in many pre‐university course syllabi. As such, we have identified the use of MS as a key technique that should be taught practically to undergraduates from the outset of their studies.
