Assessing the effectiveness of the EU nature restoration law measured against the CBD target to preserve biodiversity

open access: yesEnvironmental Sciences Europe
The pace of species extinction and the destruction of nature may be even more dramatic than the speed of the climate crisis itself. The EU Nature Restoration Law (NRL), adopted in the summer of 2024, is intended to partially remedy damage to nature in EU

Architecture‐Controlled Hierarchical Carbon‐Based Current Collector for Mitigating Interfacial Instabilities in Lithium‐Metal Anodes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A defect‐engineered, hierarchically porous carbon black/CNT current collector guides lithiophilic nucleation in 3D architecture. Steam‐created defects enable uniform Li plating, while CNTs provide conductivity and a lightweight framework, suppressing dendrites and side reactions for stable anode‐free cells.

Neuron‐Derived MIF Engages VCAM1 to Fuel a Self‐Amplifying CXCL8 Loop That Drives Perineural Invasion and Metastasis in Gastric Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Neuron‐derived MIF binds VCAM1 on gastric cancer cells and activates ERK/STAT3 signaling, leading to CXCL8 transcription and secretion. Tumor‐derived CXCL8 subsequently stimulates neuronal CXCR2 to enhance MIF production, establishing a self‐amplifying MIF–VCAM1–CXCL8 positive‐feedback loop that promotes perineural invasion, tumor progression, and ...

A global dataset of the cost of capital for renewable energy projects

open access: yesScientific Data
The cost of capital (CoC) critically influences the levelized cost of renewable energy and, by extension, the global low-carbon transition. However, reliable and consistent CoC data remain scarce, limiting an appropriate reflection of CoC differences in ...
