Enumeration, Phenotyping, and Clinical Associations of Tissue‐Resident T Cells in the Ecto‐ and Endocervix of Women Attending a Colposcopy Clinic

American Journal of Reproductive Immunology, Volume 95, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Problem Tissue‐resident memory (TRM) cells represent important immune sentinels that mount rapid recall responses to pathogens and cancers. However, there are limited data in humans on genital tract TRM collected by clinically feasible sampling methods, limiting a full understanding of their role in immunity and clinical disease.

Hypothesis: Ephrin–Eph Signaling Pathways Provide Novel Targets for Accelerated Re‐Epithelialization of Cutaneous Wounds

BioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 1, January 2026.
In distal limb wounds on the horse, the proliferative phase of repair often produces excessive granulation tissue that delays healing by impeding keratinocyte migration from wound margins. This essay examines the basis for the hypothesis that ephrin–Eph signaling pathways that stimulate keratinocyte migration provide novel targets for re‐establishing ...

Long‐Term Stable Subdural Recordings Enabled by Fibrosis‐Resistant Hydrogel‐Integrated µECoG Arrays

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 47, December 18, 2025.
An adhesive hydrogel‐integrated micro‐electrocorticography (aGel‐µECoG) array is developed to ensure stable neural recordings by minimizing neuroinflammation and fibrosis during implantation. The hydrogel serves as a biological and mechanical bridge, enabling bioadhesive, reversible, anti‐fibrotic integration with brain tissue.
