A linear polymer, poly(2,3‐dihydroxynaphthalene), when insolubilized, leads to self‐assembly into a hydroquinone–quinone donor+acceptor semiconducting architecture through H‐bonding and π‐stacking interactions. The polymer behaves as a heterogeneous photocatalyst in water for H2O2 production via water oxidation and O2 reduction under visible light.

Batteries From Reused, Recycled, and Surplus Materials
Batteries can become more circular by combining reuse, direct recycling, metallurgical recovery, and material sourcing from industrial surplus streams. This Review highlights how recycled and waste‐derived metals, carbons, polymers, electrolytes, and active materials can be reintegrated into current and emerging batteries, while emphasizing design ...

Emerging infectious disease selects for darker plumage coloration in greenfinches
Outbreaks of emerging infectious disease offer a unique chance to study viability selection in action in short time windows. Finch trichomonosis, caused by a protozoan Trichomonas gallinae emerged in Great Britain in 2005 and led to epidemic mortality ...

This work introduces state‐convergent polymerization (SCP), a polymerization framework in which chemically diverse reaction pathways converge toward a reproducible functional polymeric state rather than a defined molecular structure. Using melanin and polydopamine as exemplars, SCP explains how robust polymer functions emerge under chemical and ...

Melanin is a central polymer in living organisms, yet our understanding of its molecular structure remains unresolved. Here, we apply a biosynthetic approach to explore the composite structures accessible in one type of melanin, eumelanin.

Segmental Hair Analysis of Diphenhydramine and Cyclizine Following a Single Dose
A single oral dose of diphenhydramine and cyclizine can be quantified in human head hair for a minimum of 5 months and, in certain cases, for up to 1 year following intake. Among 12 study participants, the measured concentrations ranged from 0 to 610 pg/mg within 1 year post‐intake.

Animal fiber is an important raw material for textiles. Dark animal fibers cannot be directly dyed by light colors, which is difficult to meet the demand for color diversity in clothing.

High colour variability in animals has been associated with adaptability to environmental change. Establishing how such variability is distributed in time and space, and identifying environmental correlates, can help understand the processes driving it.

Transcriptome Comparison Reveals Key Components of Nuptial Plumage Coloration in Crested Ibis
Nuptial plumage coloration is critical in the mating choice of the crested ibis. This species has a characteristic nuptial plumage that develops from the application of a black sticky substance, secreted by a patch of skin in the throat and neck region ...

High‐Resolution Elemental Analysis of Neuromelanin‐Containing Organelles in Human Locus Coeruleus
Created in https://BioRender.com. Neuromelanin (NM), a dark metal‐chelating pigment in the brain, has long been of interest for its potential roles in aging and Parkinson's disease. In this study, we explored NM‐containing neurons (NM neurons) in the human locus coeruleus at unprecedented resolution.
