Bending‐Stable Pressure Sensor Based on Natural Wood Nanofibers for Ultra‐Low Detection Limit
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A wood nanofiber‐based flexible pressure sensor with intrinsic bending‐stable performance is developed through a porous electrospun architecture and interdigital electrode design. The device exhibits an ultra‐low detection limit and stable operation under deformation for physiological monitoring and spatial sensing, providing a sustainable strategy for

Nuevo mundo - Mundos Nuevos, 2006 Archaeological evidence clearly indicates that brightly colored and intricately patterned textiles were highly regarded in Precolumbian Peru. It also appears that feathered textiles and related objects held a special place within this tradition.

Effect of Feathers as Nest Insulation on Incubation Behavior and Reproductive Performance of Tree Swallows (\u3cem\u3eTachycineta bicolor\u3c/em\u3e) [PDF]
, 1995 Many species of birds line their nests with feathers, presumably because of the insulative qualities of feathers and because feathers may act as a barrier between nest parasites and nestlings.

A Multiscale Mechanistic Framework for Polydopamine Dyeing in Ultrablack Wool Textiles
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Ultrablack photonic textiles are enabled through polydopamine (PDA) dyeing, which is governed by the interplay of PDA chemistry, wool surface topology and chemistry, and hierarchical fiber–yarn–fabric architecture. Fabric architecture emerges as a primary and previously underappreciated design lever for wide‐angle optical performance.

Journal of Avian BiologyFeathers are structures unique to birds that serve important functions such as flight, thermoregulation, and communication. Bacteria that live on the feathers, particularly ones that can break down keratin, have the potential to damage feathers and ...

Nest decoration: Black feathers prevent Crested Mynas from nest usurpation
Avian ResearchNests are important structures for birds to raise their offspring and for signaling. Many birds incorporate feathers into the nest, since feathers were traditionally thought to serve the function of insulation.

OAF Blocks SIAH1‐Mediated Degradation of SCPX, a Therapeutic Strategy for MASLD
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study shows OAF directly binds to SCPX and inhibits its interaction with the E3 ligase SIAH1, thereby protecting SCPX from ubiquitin‐dependent degradation and stabilizing its levels. This OAF‐SCPX axis represents a novel pathway in lipid homeostasis, highlighting OAF as a promising therapeutic candidate for MASLD.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Electrode morphology is shown to govern oxygen‐bubble dynamics and interfacial mass transfer during water electrolysis. Positive‐curvature nanoneedles promote rapid release of small bubbles, sustain electrolyte renewal, and minimize mass‐transport losses, whereas flat and concave architectures increasingly retain bubbles.
