Worm‐Inspired Soft Robots With Modular Outfit‐Changing for Intelligent Multienvironment Adaptation
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study proposes a worm‐inspired soft robot capable of locomotion across multiple environments through a modular “outfit‐changing” strategy. The robot integrates pneumatically actuated peristaltic segments with interchangeable external modules, enabling efficient motion on ground surfaces, within pipelines, through granular media, and underwater ...

Phase Separation of Nucleic Acids: Mechanisms, Properties, and Applications
Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.Recent discoveries have shown that single‐stranded long‐chain nucleic acids can undergo temperature‐induced phase separation, enabling formation of micrometer‐sized condensates. This Minireview discusses the current mechanistic understanding of this phenomenon, highlights strategies for controlling the physical and chemical properties of these ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The transition to a circular economy (CE) remains hindered by the lack of practical strategies that simultaneously secure competitiveness and deliver sustainability outcomes for manufacturing organisations. While circular design is often cited as a cornerstone of CE, its concrete role in driving competitive advantage and organisational ...

Translating Circularity Into Strategy: A Governance Meta‐Capability Framework
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Firms struggle to transition to circular economy (CE) models, often citing external barriers. Yet some firms succeed, whereas others fail: Why? We argue that success depends on a specific governance capability—a meta‐capability that allows firms to (1) sense and strategically reframe CE imperatives, (2) seize opportunities by aligning diverse ...

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.Herein, we report the first example of the formation of a close‐packed, regular 2D monolayer of a fivefold symmetric cyanostar macrocycle on an Au(111) surface under ultra‐high vacuum and the structural modification of such self‐assembled architecture upon cobalt atom deposition.

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background To understand cellular morphology, biologists have relied on traditional optical microscopy of tissues combined with tissue clearing protocols to image structures deep within tissues. Unfortunately, these protocols often struggle to retain cell boundary markers, especially at high enough resolutions necessary for precise cell ...

Ribbon Tilings and Multidimensional Height Functions
, 2001 We fix $n$ and say a square in the two-dimensional grid indexed by $(x,y)$ has color $c$ if $x+y \equiv c \pmod{n}$. A {\it ribbon tile} of order $n$ is a connected polyomino containing exactly one square of each color.

Ecography, EarlyView.Climate change is significantly affecting biodiversity, and organisms that depend on external temperature – such as ectotherms – are particularly vulnerable to these effects. Microhabitats provide refuge for species, thereby reducing exposure to thermal and hydric stress under climate change.

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.This review summarizes key parameters including cathode loading and electrolyte consumption, clarifies the practical application scope of alkali metal batteries, and research progress on advanced electrolytes for grid‐scale energy storage systems. The growing demand for grid‐scale battery energy storage systems (BESSs) has prompted researchers to turn ...

Advances in Double‐Stranded DNA Targeting Technologies
Exploration, EarlyView.Double‐stranded DNA (dsDNA) plays a crucial role in genetic information storage and disease management, but its inherent stability limits access to internal bases. To overcome this challenge, various high‐specificity molecular targeting technologies have been developed to destabilize the DNA structure.
