Micro‐ and nanomotors in biomedical applications

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.
Micro‐ and nanomotors (MNMs), as autonomous devices converting chemical or external energy into mechanical propulsion, have emerged as transformative drug delivery platforms in biomedicine. This review systematically outlines the design principles governing MNMs' propulsion and operation, highlights the applications of MNMs in disease treatment, and ...

Flexible Colloidal Light‐Emitting Diodes of Self‐Assembled Quantum Well Monolayers

Small, EarlyView.
High efficiency and stable flexible LEDs are successfully produced using a single layer face‐down oriented CdSe/CdZnS core–shell CQWs as an emissive monolayer in a flexible platform for the first time. These flexible LEDs with their excellent luminance properties and stable emission emerge as exceptional candidates for future advanced flexible display ...

Covalent Organic Nanosheets with a Tunable Electronic Structure to Achieve Unprecedented Stability and High‐Performance in Sodium‐Ion Batteries

Small, EarlyView.
The new type of covalent organic nanosheets as an anode material for sodium‐ion batteries is developed by the introduction of both the benzothiadiazole motif and fluorine atoms to form the D/A‐CON‐10‐F electrode which finally demonstrates high electrical conductivities and discharge capacity of ≈637 mA h g−1 during 500 cycles at the current density of ...

Erving Goffman at 100: A Chameleon Seen as a Rorschach Test within a Kaleidoscope

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
The 100th anniversary of Erving Goffman's birth was in 2022. Drawing on his work, the Goffman archives, the secondary literature, and personal experiences with him and those in his university of Chicago cohort, I reflect on some implications of his work and life, and the inseparable issues of understanding society.

Heroes, Victims, and Resisters: Agentic Vulnerability and Techniques of Identity Talk in Digitalized Job Centers

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
This article explores vulnerable clients' techniques of identity talk, drawing on interviews with clients in Danish job centers. We combine the theoretical perspective of symbolic interactionism with the sociology of nothing to explore techniques of disidentification from the nonworker identity.

The Gold‐Maker of Animal Oil and Prussian Blue Fame — The Chemical and Medicinal Science Philosophy of Johann Conrad Dippel

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
The radical Pietist Johann Conrad Dippel was a self‐proclaimed adept – a maker of gold and the philosophers’ stone. He was also a magister of theology, a doctor of medicine, and a self‐taught chemist, who coinvented the pigment Prussian Blue together with Johann von Diesbach, became known for his animal pyrolysis oil, his wonder‐wound balm, his ...

Why the WASPI has no Sting: Gender, Generation and Pension Inequalities

The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Since 2015, Women Against State Pension Inequality (WASPI) has campaigned tirelessly for ‘justice’ for the millions of 1950s‐born women adversely affected by the raising and equalisation of the state pension age (SPA). Yet, to date, no compensation has been paid.

The agency of a marmalade machine: Gender, class and mechanical gadgets in the British Kitchen, c.1870–1938

Gender &History, EarlyView.
Abstract This article explores the marmalade machine, a mechanical device designed to slice orange peel. These niche objects were manufactured between roughly 1870 and 1938 in Britain. As a so‐called ‘labour‐saving’ gadget, the marmalade machine sliced orange peel quickly and effectively, removing the tedious process of slicing orange peel by hand ...
