Managing coupled human and natural systems (CHANS) : the case of water [PDF]
, 2022 Many sustainability challenges of the 21st century are the result of poor management of coupled human and natural systems (CHANS). Limited understanding of the mechanisms that give rise to complex dynamics in CHANS has contributed to overexploitation and

Programming Actuation in 3D‐Printed Micro‐Architectures via Interfacial Adhesion Control
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A two‐phase meniscus‐guided 3D printing method directly fabricates microscale poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) bilayers with in situ programmable interfaces. Modulating the meniscus stretching speed switches the interface between separated and bonded states, which controls the mechanical ...

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

An overview of FRIDA v2.1: a feedback-based, fully coupled, global integrated assessment model of climate and humans [PDF]
Geoscientific Model DevelopmentThe current crop of models assessed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) to produce their assessment reports lack endogenous process-based representations of climate-driven changes to human activities, especially beyond the purely ...

The Annals of Family Medicine, 2016 As a third-year medical student on an internal medical clerkship, I learned the most important lesson about how to care for patients. I saw my attending physician give attention first to the person he was treating, and then to the patient and her clinical picture.
