Electrostatic Defrosting

Small Methods
Abstract Electrification of ice has been studied for over half a century, mostly in the context of atmospheric science. Here, the polarizability and natural thermovoltage of a substrate‐bound frost sheet are exploited for frost removal by placing an actively charged electrode overhead.

Radiative Thermal Management for Extreme Environments: Mechanisms and Design Strategies

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss the fundamental mechanisms of radiative cooling and solar heating, material and structural design strategies, hybrid approaches integrating additional heat transfer pathways, and durability‐oriented designs addressing environmental stresses.

Control of Bacterial Attachment on Macroporous PDMS/Paraffin SLIPS With Varying Lubricant Viscosity

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Slippery liquid‐infused porous surfaces (SLIPS) prepared from macroporous PDMS, infused with medical‐grade paraffins, were systematically investigated regarding the correlation of viscosity, surface corrugation, bulk porosity, and bacterial resistance. Substrate porosity was found to dominate lubricant stabilization and the antifouling activity.

Mitochondria and Neuromast Tagging With Fluorescent Gallium‐Triapine Analogues: In Cellulo MP FLIM and Zebrafish Live Imaging

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fluorescent BODIPY‐conjugated thiosemicarbazone ligands and their Ga(III), In(III), and Fe(III) complexes, inspired by Triapine, are developed as theranostic agents. Multiphoton FLIM and confocal microscopy in cancer cells and zebrafish reveal real‐time uptake, mitochondrial localisation, and whilst spectroscopic assays indicated preserved complex ...

Pt‐Regulated Dynamic Cu(0) Regeneration in CuPt Alloy Enables High‐Efficiency Self‐Driven Formaldehyde Fuel Cells for Potassium Formate Production

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this work, a Cu30PtX/CF anode material was synthesized to effectively catalyze the electrocatalytic formaldehyde oxidation, and thereby assembled a fuel cell that offered a high open‐circuit potential of 0.94 V and a power density of 34.3 mW cm−2. This work realizes the co‐generation of electrical energy and high‐value‐added chemicals with nearly ...

Visual Haptic Feedback for Training of Robotic Suturing

Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 2022
Current surgical robotic systems are teleoperated and do not have force feedback. Considerable practice is required to learn how to use visual input such as tissue deformation upon contact as a substitute for tactile sense.

Body donor programs in Australia and New Zealand: Current status and future opportunities

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 301-328, March 2025.
Abstract Body donation is critical to anatomy study in Australia and New Zealand. Annually, more than 10,000 students, anatomists, researchers, and clinicians access tissue donated by local consented donors through university‐based body donation programs. However, little research has been published about their operations.
