Sure-thing vs. probabilistic charitable giving: Experimental evidence on the role of individual differences in risky and ambiguous charitable decision-making.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Charities differ, among other things, alongside the likelihood that their interventions succeed and produce the desired outcomes and alongside the extent that such likelihood can even be articulated numerically.

Constructing Ionic Fast Diffusion Channels on LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 for Lithium‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A dual‐modification strategy is developed for LNMO cathode, where bulk Ti doping stabilizes the oxygen framework and simultaneously drives the in situ formation of LaTi2O6 nano‐islands as ion diffusion channels on (111) surfaces, enabling high‐rate capacity (∼100 mAh g−1 at 30 C) and excellent cycling retention (87.8% after 1000 cycles).

Electrolyte‐Induced Interfacial/Bulk Dual Regulation Enables Negligible Capacity Decay in Li‐Rich Cathodes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work report a n electrolyte‑induced interfacial/bulk dual regulation strategy that enables negligible capacity decay in li‑rich cathodes. ABSTRACT Lithium‐rich manganese‐based oxides (LRMO) suffer from rapid capacity decay, mainly driven by interfacial instability and bulk structural degradation associated with Jahn‐Teller (J‐T) distortion in Mn3+‐

Timing Mechanotransduction: Mechanically Dynamic Biomaterials Reveal the Temporal Hierarchy of YAP/TAZ Control Nodes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work develops dynamically softening polyacrylamide hydrogels for time‐resolved imaging during continuous mechanical transitions. The study revealed that mechanotransduction is biphasic; YAP/TAZ inactivation is driven by early loss of the nucleocytoskeletal continuum connecting subnuclear adhesions, F‐actin, and the nuclear envelope, coupled with ...
