Morphological adaptations of cervical vertebrae in plunge‐diving sulids

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Foraging strategy frequently drives morphological diversification in birds. The plunge‐diving behavior of certain species makes the functional and ecological trade‐offs of variation in cervical vertebrae an especially intriguing question. This study compares cervical vertebrae across five plunge‐diving species and two non‐plunge‐diving species,

Restoring joint homeostasis: A dynamically adaptive meniscal scaffold prevents osteoarthritis by replicating native biomechanics

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This work establishes a paradigm shift from static structural mimicry to dynamic functional replication. By restoring the native “compression‐to‐tension” mechanism, the scaffold ensures robust mechanical stability and superior chondroprotection.

Initiating Market Formation Through Local Policy Innovation: Plot Handover as a Driver for Circular Construction

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transition to circular construction suffers from uncertainties related to costs, market realities, supply, regulations and expertise using secondary materials in building projects. Uncertainties are large, and resolving them needs policy interventions.

New Insights Into the Three‐Dimensional Mechanics of the Flagellar Beat Cycle

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advances in imaging at the molecular scale have provided greater detail concerning the three‐dimensional structure of the ciliary/flagellar axoneme. Additionally, it has recently been confirmed that electrostatic forces regulate the dynein‐tubulin interaction at the microtubule binding domain (MTBD) of dynein, and at the junction of the nexin ...
