Honey bees use pollen and nectar from flowers to produce food. Because they often forage on crops, they are at risk of being exposed to plant protection products (PPPs), both directly and in stored food.

A Bio‐Inspired Perspective on Materials Sustainability
This perspective discusses natural materials as inspiration for sustainable engineering designs and the processing of materials. First, circularity, longevity, parsimony, and activity are presented as essential material paradigms. The perspective then uses many examples of natural and technical materials to introduce principles such as oligo ...

A 2D/3D Heterostructure Perovskite Solar Cell with a Phase‐Pure and Pristine 2D Layer
A simple solution‐based method that can achieve pristine (without residual 2D precursors) and phase‐pure 2D/3D perovskite heterostructure without the need for synthesizing a single crystal is developed. Perovskite solar cells with this treatment demonstrate a notable improvement in both power conversion efficiency and long‐term stability, with ...

Residue‐Free Fabrication of 2D Materials Using van der Waals Interactions
Residue‐free 2D materials with exceptional cleanliness and high quality are achieved using van der Waals interaction‐based fabrication and manipulation techniques, completely free from polymers and solvents. Precise manipulation enables the construction of vdW heterostructures with controlled alignment, expanding the potential of 2D materials for next ...

IN NATURE, vol. xi. p. 306, Mr. Alfred George Renshaw refers to and criticises a paper on “Ants and Bees,” lately read by Sir John Lubbock, and assumes, or seems to assume—and the language quoted justifies such assumption—that Sir John advanced the idea that bees have no means of communicating knowledge to each other.

Synthetic Active Liquid Crystals Powered by Acoustic Waves
A fully synthetic active liquid crystal, energized by an acoustic field, is presented. This system exhibits active nematic behavior, tunable topological defect dynamics, and persistent hydrodynamic vortices at high activity levels. The material maintains stable properties while enabling precise activity control in a wide range.
