Development‐based In Vivo Bioreactor Strategy for Challenging Senescent Bone Reconstruction
We present a development‐based in vivo bioreactor strategy to generate rejuvenated bone grafts (vBR‐Bone) within aged hosts. By enclosing vBR‐Bone fragments within an asymmetric biomimetic periosteum, segmental femoral defects in aged mice were successfully repaired within 6 weeks. Mechanistically, the multifactors of vBR‐Bone reconstitute a remodeling

Polyelectrolyte Design Principles for Electrophoretic Drug Delivery
Structure–property–function mapping of polyelectrolytes reveals how composition and nanoscale order control on‐demand electrophoretic drug transport. Charge density quantified under implant‐relevant conditions shows that encapsulation limits swelling, enabling high effective charge density.

Stunting and Selection Effects of Famine: A Case Study of the Great Chinese Famine [PDF]
Many developing countries experience famine. If survival is related to height, the increasingly common practice of using height as a measure of well-being may be misleading.
