Biodegradable 3D‐Printable and Coatable Antifouling Composites for Marine Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Marine biofouling damages submerged surfaces and raises greenhouse gas emissions. Biodegradable antifouling biocomposites were developed by hot‐mixing beeswax, Tween 80, and calcium stearate or stearic acid. Adjusting the component ratio enables processing via hot‐pressing, 3D‐printing, or dip‐coating.

Coral Reef Restorations Can Be Optimized to Reduce Coastal Flooding Hazards

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Coral reefs are effective natural coastal flood barriers that protect adjacent communities. Coral degradation compromises the coastal protection value of reefs while also reducing their other ecosystem services, making them a target for restoration. Here

ICOS‐ImmunoPET Monitors T Cell Activation After Combination Immune Checkpoint Blockade in a Mouse Model of Melanoma Brain Metastasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ICOS‐immunoPET noninvasively visualizes activated T cells in melanoma brain metastases following combined anti‐PD‐1/anti‐CTLA‐4 therapy. Clinical translation of this imaging approach may improve patient stratification and treatment monitoring and serve as a quantitative imaging endpoint to support immunotherapy development and clinical trials in brain ...

Patterns of Genetic Structuring in the Coral Pocillopora Damicornis on Reefs in East Africa. [PDF]

, 2009
Studies of population genetic structures provide an indication of direction and magnitude of larval transport and hence are an important component in the assessment of the ability of reefs to recover from severe disturbance.
