Heat Perceptions, Behaviors, and Barriers of Unhoused Individuals in Germany [PDF]
Across in‐depth interviews and a survey of 252 unhoused people in 13 German cities, many underestimated heat risks yet often experienced heat‐related fatigue, nausea, or faintness. Participants reported limited hydration and frequent eviction from cooling spots, heat‐aggravating medication whose dosage and storage were rarely adapted, and minimal sun ...

Design and Characterization of Dual-Modal Fluorinated BODIPY Probes. [PDF]
Here we show a fluorinated BODIPY dye that combine 19F traceability with photoluminescence, properly designed to reduce aggregation‐induced quenching and to adjust the packing in condensed environments. The molecule can be encapsulated in Pluronic F68‐stabilized poly(lactic‐co‐glycolic acid) nanoparticles.
