Implications of a lowered damage trajectory for mitigation in a continuous-time stochastic model [PDF]
This paper provides counterexamples to the idea that mitigation of greenhouse gases causing climate change, and adaptation to climate change, are always and everywhere substitutes.

Climate smart strategies to strengthened coffee farmers adaptive capacity to climate change. [P74] [PDF]
, 2015 In the last 30 years Kenya's national coffee production decreased by about 70%. In some areas like Muranga County, the decline was up to fivefold and coffee is now replaced by food crops in lower altitudes due to erratic rainfall and increased ...

Topography‐Regulated Screening Platform for Myoblast Contact Guidance
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This study develops a topography‐regulated screening platform (12 gradients in 96‐topography‐well plate) enabling analysis of skeletal muscle morphogenesis. The topography‐induced cell morphology changed, cell polarization, and myotube differentiation, establishing an evaluative framework for generating pathologically relevant myotube phenotypes to ...

Enhancing Small Molecule Sensing With Aptameric Functionalized Nano Devices
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Unveiling an ultra‐sensitive, non‐invasive neurotransmitter sensor. For the first time, a nanoscale sensor for detecting an important neurotransmitter was demonstrated using micro‐electromechanical systems (MEMS) technology. Our approach utilized field‐effect transistor (FET)‐based readout to enable pico‐molar detection of biomarkers in sweat.
