Antiaromaticity‐Driven Enhancement of Single‐Molecule Electrical Conductance by s‐Indacene Molecular Bridges

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Within the same molecular length scale, antiaromatic s‐indacene exhibits a marked increase in conductance compared to its aromatic benzodithiophene counterpart. Notably, the inherently small HOMO–LUMO gap of antiaromatic systems maintains a certain level of conductance even in the presence of cross‐conjugation.

Nanographene‐Based van der Waals Organic Framework With Permanent Porosity

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Unlocking record‐breaking porosity in a supramolecular organic framework (SOF). Through the strategic design of a C3‐symmetric nanographene, a robust supramolecular framework is achieved via exclusively weak van der Waals forces. This metal‐free scaffold reaches a benchmark BET surface area of 1108 m2 g−1 –the highest to date for this class–combining ...

Artificial Intelligence and Access to Justice at the ‘Shop Front’: The Potential and Limitations of Meeting Legal Need Through Technology

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In Australia, governments fund Community Legal Centres (CLCs) as part of the legal assistance sector (LAS) to meet the ‘legal needs’ of people experiencing disadvantage who cannot afford private legal services. Persistent unmet demand for CLCs is well‐documented. As artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used in private legal practice to

Slowing Down Water: Enhanced and Cation‐responsive MRI Contrast

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The controlled modification of mesoporous silica nanoparticle side walls with kosmotropic motifs supports an ability to reduce water diffusive mobility and dramatically increase MRI contrast to levels unprecedented for highly kinetically stable Gd‐DOTA configurations (both q = 1 and q = 0).

To What Extent Do Australian Government Metrics Align With Indigenous and Non‐Indigenous Conceptualisations of Wellbeing? A Scoping Review of Wellbeing Frameworks

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Indigenous wellbeing theories offer potential to better measure social and cultural determinants. This scoping review aimed to identify the types of metrics used by the Australian government to assess wellbeing and evaluate the alignment of current frameworks against Indigenous and non‐Indigenous conceptualisations of wellbeing.
