New Records for Ectoparasites of Michigan Bats [PDF]
, 2017 During 1978, 1979, and 1981 ectoparasites of bats were collected in 16 counties of the Upper and Lower peninsulas in connection with an extensive study of Michigan bat populations (Kurta 1980, 1982).

Bioinspired Adaptive Leg‐Claw Enables Robust Perching and Grasping for UAVs
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Inspired by owl limb morphology and bat roosting behavior, this study presents a bioinspired adaptive leg‐claw mechanism that enables UAVs to perform robust and versatile perching and grasping. The design integrates a four‐link tibial structure, tension‐driven deformable feet, and active control, enabling stable perching on various branches and ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.It is currently not well understood how cells regulate basic properties, e.g., volume and mechanics within dense multicellular environments like tumors. Here, we show that different cell types of cancer and also normal cells largely decrease their nuclear and cellular volumes in emerging cell clusters and that this is partly driven by cell cycle shifts.

Mitochondrial lipoylation integrates age-associated decline in brown fat thermogenesis. [PDF]
, 2019 Thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue (BAT) declines with age; however, what regulates this process remains poorly understood. Here, we identify mitochondria lipoylation as a previously unappreciated molecular hallmark of aged BAT in mice.

mTORC2 sustains thermogenesis via Akt-induced glucose uptake and glycolysis in brown adipose tissue [PDF]
, 2016 Activation of non-shivering thermogenesis (NST) in brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been proposed as an anti-obesity treatment. Moreover, cold-induced glucose uptake could normalize blood glucose levels in insulin-resistant patients.

Comparative Insights and Overlooked Factors of Interphase Chemistry in Alkali Metal‐Ion Batteries
Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.This review presents a comparative analysis of Li‐, Na‐, and K‐ion batteries, focusing on the critical role of electrode–electrolyte interphases. It especially highlights overlooked aspects such as SEI/CEI misconceptions, binder effects, and self‐discharge relevance, emphasizing the limitations of current understanding and offering strategies for ...
