The Evolution of Masturbation in Birds

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Masturbation has been sporadically documented across animal groups, yet the evolutionary origins and persistence of this sexual behaviour are largely unexplored. Through combining targeted surveys with published accounts, we test hypotheses about why masturbation occurs using a phylogenetically broad dataset on the presence or absence of masturbation ...

Experiences of Māori After Stroke in Regional Aotearoa New Zealand: A Qualitative Study Informing Culturally Responsive Stroke Services

Kōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 2, June 2026.
Māori experience stroke at higher rates, face inequities in care and have poorer outcomes than non‐Māori in Aotearoa New Zealand. Guided by Kaupapa Māori research principles, this qualitative study explored Māori experiences of stroke and stroke services in two rural regions, Tairāwhiti and Wairarapa, and potential areas for improvement in stroke ...

Ionogel Actuators: A Review

SmartBot, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2026.
Ionogels dynamically and functionally couple ionic liquids with polymer networks, enabling multiscale programmable deformation and motion under electrical, magnetic, optical, thermal, humidity, and chemical stimuli. This article systematically elucidates the constituent components, structural design, and multiscale actuation mechanisms of ionogel ...

Radiation‐Based 3D Dual‐Mode Thermal Management Devices: Advances in Active/Passive Switching for Energy‐Saving Applications

Small, Volume 22, Issue 35, 23 June 2026.
Heating and cooling energy demand account for nearly half of the global energy consumption. SH and RC offer sustainable, zero‐energy strategies, but single‐mode devices lack adaptability. 3D dual‐mode devices, exploiting axial, flipping, and bending deformations, provide reversible switching with dynamic or passive control, representing a promising ...
