Untangling Inositol (Pyro)Phosphate Biology Through Emerging Technologies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inositol (pyro)phosphates represent a vital class of intracellular messengers that govern multiple biological processes. The last decade has experienced a surge of interest in the functions of this class of signaling molecules, primarily due to the introduction of several innovative analytical technologies.

A Rigid–Foldable Kirigami‐Inspired Metamorphic Mechanism With Programmable Motion Modes and Self‐Locking

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Geometric constraint reconfiguration enables a rigid–foldable kirigami‐inspired mechanism to switch between twisting, directional translation, and self‐locking states. By encoding multifunctionality directly into its architecture, the mechanism achieves multimodal motion and passive locking without reassembly, providing a compact platform for adaptive ...

Stochastic Entanglement of Deterministic Origami Tentacles For Robust Robotic Grasping

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces an origami tentacle gripper to robustly grasp objects‐in air, underwater, and even in orbital space‐by exploiting a synergy between local, deterministic deformation programming and global, stochastic entanglements. A single origami tentacle can be designed to coil with a simple tendon pull.

Flat Bands Induced by Non‐Collinear Antiferromagnetism in CoBi2Te4

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Flat bands emerge at the edges of intrinsically non‐collinear antiferromagnetic CoBi2Te4 two‐septuple layers through the interplay of spin–orbit coupling–driven band inversion and non‐collinear antiferromagnetism, uncovering a previously unexplored mechanism for flat‐band formation and opening new opportunities for strongly correlated quantum states ...

Local Solvent Ordering Drives Supramolecular Chirality Inversion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Local solvent organization is shown to govern supramolecular chirality by selecting distinct chiral assembly pathways. A subtle change in water‐DMSO composition reverses the helical sense of a chiral perylene bisimide, while heating induces an irreversible thermal inversion to a more stable enantiomorph.

Cobalt‐Catalyzed Asymmetric Construction of Boron Stereocenters With C–N Axial Chirality

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A cobalt/Salox‐catalyzed one‐pot annulation enables enantioselective formation of B‐stereogenic centers and C─N axial chirality via C─H/N─H annulation, affording diverse fluorescent products with high stereocontrol and optoelectronic potential. ABSTRACT The efficient construction of boron stereogenic centers alongside axial chirality remains a ...

Chiral Morphing of Liquid Crystal Polymer Networks

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This paper reviews how macroscopic chirality spontaneously arises from liquid crystal polymer materials. It describes how alignment is utilized to create the mechanical anisotropy, geometric misorientation and asymmetry that leads to chiral shape morphing, how shape selection between helicoids and helices arises, the techniques used to prepare these ...

Atomically Modulating Competing Exchange Interactions in Centrosymmetric Skyrmion Hosts GdRu2X2 (X = Si and Ge)

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Our work bridges the gap between skyrmion discovery and material design by demonstrating how atomic‐scale control of exchange interactions enables tunable skyrmion phase transitions in centrosymmetric magnetic metals. ABSTRACT Magnetic skyrmions are topologically protected spin states that hold promise for shaping the future of electronics.
