Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In this paper we describe a technique to make a confined environment of variable stiffness that is suitable for high‐resolution live‐cell imaging. This versatile and adaptable technique enables cell confinement between soft elastic surfaces made from polyacrylamide gels.

An Ultra‐Low‐Power Biopotential Acquisition Analog Front‐End Chip for Wearable Devices
International Journal of Circuit Theory and Applications, EarlyView.A 0.8‐V, 1.2‐μW biopotential AFE combines a chopper‐stabilized CCIA with dual‐time‐scale EDO management. The slow DSL preserves > 1 GΩ input impedance, whereas an event‐triggered fast‐recovery path shortens return to the linear range after abrupt electrode‐offset disturbances. ABSTRACT A 0.8‐V, 1.2‐μW biopotential analog front‐end (AFE) IC is presented

Microfluidic production of monodisperse food‐additive polymer capsules for biological applications
Droplet, EarlyView.Monodisperse TGPR polymer capsules are generated via a robust microfluidic approach exploiting droplet interface transfer across the oil‒water interface. Unlike lipid vesicles, these capsules offer high thermal stability and biocompatibility. They successfully demonstrated utility as robust bioreactors for in‐capsule PCR and bacterial cultivation ...

ABSTRACT Key electrocatalytic reactions such as HER, OER, ORR, CO2RR, and NRR offer promising routes for storing renewable energy as chemical fuels. However, their widespread application is constrained due to the lack of highly active and stable catalysts. Grain boundaries (GBs)

Lithium Metal Anode Fabrication: Methods, Challenges, and Strategies
EcoEnergy, EarlyView.Schematic illustration of four representative fabrication techniques for thin lithium metal anodes: extrusion, molten lithium infusion, electroplating, and physical vapor deposition (PVD). ABSTRACT The pursuit of ultra‐high energy‐dense lithium‐metal batteries (LMBs) has reignited the drive to fabricate ultrathin high‐quality lithium metal anodes. This
