Magneto‐responsive fibers and fabrics for soft systems

FlexMat, EarlyView.
Abstract The combination of functional materials in fiber form has led to a surge in the integration of functional fibers and fabrics into soft systems that span sensing, communication, and actuation domains. A key subset is magnetic fibers and fabrics.

Proteomic Signatures of Ectopic Fat Distribution: Tissue‐Specific Drivers and Clinical Implications

Med Research, EarlyView.
Integration of plasma proteomics and multi‐organ MRI in 666 UK Biobank participants, combined with a knockoff‐based causal inference and machine learning framework, reveals organ‐specific drivers of ectopic fat: PLA2G1B (pancreas), ERBB2/IGFBP2 (liver), CA14 (muscle), and NCAM2/TNFRSF10B (pericardium). These drivers engage distinct pathways (e.g., PI3K‐

MXene Bioinks for 3D Bioprinting: Design and Translation

Small, EarlyView.
This study establishes a comprehensive framework for MXene‐based bioinks in 3D bioprinting, highlighting the interplay between rheological engineering and electroactive hydrogels. By optimizing electrical percolation and mediated signaling, these formulations drive tissue‐specific biological outcomes and accelerated regeneration.

Innovative 3D‐bioprinted microfibers in calcium phosphate cement platform with Nell‐1 to activate nerve‐bone axis for synergistic bone, vasculature, and nanofibrous nerve regeneration

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
A 3D‐bioprinted platform with stem cells activates “nerve‐bone” signaling by enabling the spatiotemporal delivery of Nell‐1. This activation enhances neurovascular and bone regeneration through the CYFIP1 cascade. In rat calvarial defects, the platform doubled bone regeneration and nerve repair and tripled vascular density, resulting in superior ...

Disentangling the effect of brain insulin resistance on brain health (BIR‐BrainHealth): Rationale and study protocol

Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Insulin signalling in the brain is crucial for systemic metabolic regulation and cognitive function. In some individuals, these effects are reduced, a phenomenon referred to as brain insulin resistance (BIR). This condition may contribute to the elevated risk of cognitive decline and dementia in diabetes, yet its prevalence, mechanisms ...

Cognitive Symbionts. Expanding the Scope of Cognitive Science With Fungi

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract It has been argued that fungi have cognitive capacities, and even conscious experiences. While these arguments risk ushering in unproductive disputes about how words like “mind,” “cognitive,” “sentient,” and “conscious” should be used, paying close attention to key properties of fungal life can also be uncontroversially productive for ...

Seeing Through an Ant's Eyes: Do Entomopathogenic Fungi Extend Their Cognition to Their Hosts?

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Post‐cognitivist approaches recognize cognition as a phenomenon that involves not just brains but all the sensorimotor apparatus of organisms. This means that brains are not always required for the emergence of cognition and that every organism can, in principle, be cognitive, unlocking a theoretical framework to explain the complex adaptive ...

Finding Dr Florence Buchanan: The recovered face and fuller life story of a scientific legend

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Dr Florence Buchanan (1867–1931) was one of physiology's foundational women. Trained as a zoologist at University College London (UCL), she became an exacting physiologist whose studies of muscle bioelectricity, reflexes, cardiac rhythm and exercise helped shape twentieth‐century physiology.

Panoramic voltage‐sensitive optical mapping of contracting hearts using cooperative multiview motion tracking with 12 cameras

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstact figure legend A panoramic 3D optical mapping system was developed, enabling imaging of action potential waves across the entire strongly deforming ventricular surface of beating isolated hearts. The system comprises 12 high‐speed cameras and a soccerball‐shaped imaging chamber with 48 light‐emitting diodes (LEDs).
