Consumers and Food Choice: Quality, Nutrition and Genes [PDF]
, 2010 The quantity and quality of food needed for reproduction differs from nutritional needs for health and longevity. The choice of food type and amount is driven by our genetic need for growth and reproduction, not for long term health.

Beyond Silicon: Toward Sustainable, NIR‐II, and Conformable Organic Photodiodes
Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.In this perspective, a strategic shift in organic photodetector (OPD) research is proposed: instead of the incremental advances in silicon's stronghold arena, the most impactful future for OPDs lies in addressing silicon's intrinsic limitations, i.e., detection in the longer wavelength range above silicon's coverage (>1100 nm, termed as near infrared ...

Relative Consumption and Endogenous Labour Supply in the Ramsey Model: Do Status-Conscious People Work Too Much? [PDF]
This paper introduces consumption externalities into a Ramsey-type model with endogenous labour supply and homogeneous agents. The instantaneous utility of any consumer is assumed to depend on work effort, own consumption and relative consumption, where ...

Wearable Thermoelectric Generators for In Vivo Modulation of Insulin Release
Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.This work presents a wearable, self‐powered thermoelectric system (IGNITE) that sustainably harvests body heat to electrically stimulate engineered human cells for insulin release. Operating autonomously without batteries, IGNITE achieves glycemic control in diabetic mice, demonstrating a significant advance in bioelectronic medicine and setting the ...

Is Quantum Mechanics needed to explain consciousness ?
, 2007 In this short comment to a recent contribution by E. Manousakis [1] it is argued that the reported agreement between the measured time evolution of conscious states during binocular rivalry and predictions derived from quantum mechanical formalisms does ...

Scalable Liquid‐Phase Exfoliation of h‐BN for Solar‐Reflective and Thermally Stable Polymer Aerogels
Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.High‐pressure homogenization exfoliates hexagonal boron nitride (h‐BN) into stable nanosheets, which are incorporated into PVA, CMC, and HEC matrices to form lightweight composite aerogels. Tuning h‐BN loading (0–50 wt%) transforms the structure from porous to densely packed, tailoring optical, thermal, and mechanical properties. An optimized PVA/20 wt%
