Mirror microbial life and the dual use dilemma [PDF]
Life as we know it on Earth contains sugars and amino acids that are, for the most part, in only one of two chiral forms. However, it has been proposed that molecules with the opposite chirality, called mirror molecules, could have beneficial uses.

Dual use and gain-of-function research: a significant endeavor with biosecurity imperatives [PDF]
The current U.S. administration has recently proposed a pause on all domestic gain-of-function (GoF) research in order to fully revise existing policy. However, domestic controls on GoF research cannot mandate that other nations follow suit and thus do ...

An Investigation of Harmonic Oscillation of an Ion Particle in a Non-uniform Electrostatic Field [PDF]
In this study, we investigate the possibility to trap an ion particle in a non-uniform electrostatic field generated by two ionic rings, with the aim to obtain and verify general results regarding our proposition.

Highly sensitive and disposable screen-printed ionic liquid/graphene based electrochemical sensors
In this work, a highly sensitive and disposable screen-printed ionic liquid-graphene electrode (SPIL-GE) was developed for electrochemical sensing. The paste for screen printing was facilely prepared by mixing IL with electrolytically exfoliated graphene
