Digital Microneedles for Multiplexed Transdermal Sensing via Fluorescent QR Codes

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Digital fluorescent microneedles encode biochemical information in skin into scannable QR codes through threshold‐activated probes that generate binary on/off signals. By transforming analog fluorescence into discrete digital patterns, this platform enables calibration‐free, multiplexed transdermal sensing of physiologically relevant biomarkers ...

Beyond Earth: Resilience of Quasi‐2D Perovskite Solar Cells in Space

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
In the article (DOI: 10.1002/adma.202520433), Christoph Putz and co‐workers demonstrate rigid quasi‐2D perovskite solar cells operating in low Earth orbit, delivering stable power for more than 100 days under real‐space conditions. In‐orbit performance is correlated with extensive ground‐based thermal and proton‐irradiation studies on rigid and ...

AI–Guided 4D Printing of Carnivorous Plants–Inspired Microneedles for Accelerated Wound Healing

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents an artificial intelligence (AI)‐guided 4D‐printed microneedle platform inspired by carnivorous plants for wound healing. A thermo‐responsive shape memory polymer enables body temperature–triggered self‐coiling for autonomous wound closure.

NATURA 2000 IN ROMANIA - A DECADE OF GOVERNANCE CHALLENGES

European Journal of Geography, 2017
Prior to Romania’s joining the European Union in 2007, the Romanian government assumed the responsibility to fully implement Community legislation in the field of nature conservation. This led to a rapid increase of protected surface areas (from 7% in

Calcium supplementation of breeding birds: directions for future research [PDF]

Ibis, 2004
Calcium is an essential nutrient for avian reproduction. Calcium‐rich foods are consumed by breeding birds for production of eggshells and for provisioning chicks that are mineralizing skeletal tissues. A number of studies have documented calcium‐limited reproduction, and calcium supplementation has been employed over the last decade to demonstrate ...
