Activatable smart contrast agents for photoacoustic imaging

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
This review highlights recent advances in smart activatable photoacoustic imaging (PAI) contrast agents, which dynamically modulate their optical properties in response to external stimuli or microenvironmental cues. It discusses their molecular design, activation mechanisms, biomedical applications, and future prospects for clinically tailored use ...

The Unintended Consequences of German Deterrence

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Germany's evolving deterrence posture boils down to continued participation in NATO nuclear sharing and an ambitious conventional rearmament program. Due to its non‐nuclear status and a result of decades of underinvestment, Germany prioritizes modern conventional weapons.

Complementarity in alliances: How strategic compatibility and hierarchy promote efficient cooperation in international security

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract How can defense alliances reap the efficiency gains of working together when coordination and opportunism costs are high? Although specializing as part of a collective comes with economic and functional benefits, states must bargain over the distribution of those gains and ensure the costs of collective action are minimized.

Israel's Post‐War Healthcare Obligations

open access: yesBioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the beginning of the Israel–Hamas war in 2023, the healthcare infrastructure within Gaza has been dismantled. While international humanitarian law mandates distinction between lawful targets (combatants and military objectives) and non‐lawful targets (civilians and civilian objects), and acknowledging the inherent complexities of ...

How to make people do things with words

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
Abstract Sometimes we do what other people tell us to. A natural thought is that the motivation to act on an instruction comes about rationally as the result of interpreting an imperative and deciding to act on it; that is, by updating on information that gets mediated through belief‐desire reasoning.

Isometric training at longer muscle–tendon complex lengths: A potential countermeasure to impaired neuro‐muscle–tendon function during space travel

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Manned space exploration to distant destinations, including Mars, continues to be an aspiration of humankind. Space travel does, however, present many challenges to the body, amongst which adaptation to microgravity is perhaps the largest. For instance, both short and long manned spaceflight missions have shown substantial deleterious effects ...

Resistance training tempo selectively modulates corticospinal and reticulospinal excitability in humans

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Three weeks of unilateral resistance training (RT) performed under metronome‐paced (MP‐RT) or self‐paced (SP‐RT) conditions increased strength (maximum voluntary force (MVF) and one‐repetition maximum (1RM)) but were accompanied by distinct neural adaptations.

Toward Optimized Intravoxel Incoherent Motion (IVIM) and Compartmental T2 Mapping in Abdominal Organs

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 6, Page 3161-3175, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose To quantitatively assess the bias in the intravoxel incoherent motions (IVIM)–derived pseudo‐diffusion volume fraction (f) caused by the differences in relaxation times between the tissue and fluid compartments, and to develop a two‐dimensional (b‐value‐TE) fitting approach for simultaneous T2 and IVIM parameter estimation along with ...

US‐Japan Alliance: Emmeshing Bilateralism Into Broader Multilateralism

open access: yesAsia &the Pacific Policy Studies, Volume 13, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In the 21st Century, geopolitical confrontation between the Eurasian continental powers and the sea powers works to divide Asia. The US‐Japan alliance has transformed itself from Japanʼs asymmetrical security dependence of the Cold War period into a mutual and more integrated partnership today.
