Unraveling Pathway Complexity in Photoreversible Supramolecular Hydrogels: Real‐Time Visualization and Sub‐Micrometric Photopatterning

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
This research demonstrates real‐time visualization of supramolecular sol‐gel transitions using Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Microscopy (FLIM). By leveraging 5D visualization, integrating 3D space, time, and polarity resolution, we achieved maskless sub‐micrometric photopatterning within the gel matrix.

FRACTAL GEOMETRY IN AGRICULTURAL CASH PRICE DYNAMICS [PDF]

open access: yes
Agricultural prices are determined by natural and socio-economic factors that are known to be self-similar at different time scales and to follow non-periodic cyclical patterns.

Engineering In Vitro Models of Skeletal Muscle With Neuromuscular Junctions Using Hierarchical Micro‐Nano Biomaterials: Cooperative Effect of Adhesion Ligand Nanoclustering and Surface Anisotropy

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
This study investigates the cooperative effects of adhesive ligand distribution, density, and biomaterial morphology for innervated skeletal muscle tissue engineering. Ligand nanoclusters were created in aligned micropatterns by electrospinning of a RAFT‐synthesized polymer with controlled ligand presentation.

Colloidal Behavior of Carbonate Particles Microbially Precipitated in Microfluidic Droplets

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
In Microbially Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation (MICP), ureolytic bacteria trigger calcium carbonate precipitation via pH‐increasing urea hydrolysis. This enzymatically driven reaction induces the colloidal assembly of bacteria and carbonate particles into fractal networks.

Fractionation‐Free Protein Corona Quantification Through Synchrotron‐Based Small‐Angle X‐ray Scattering

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
A fractionation‐free SAXS approach quantifies protein corona formation on silica nanoparticles under native conditions. By deconvoluting scattering from free and bound proteins, adsorbed mass is directly determined in simple and complex media. The method resolves adsorption regimes and thermodynamics, establishing non‐invasive, in situ characterization

Recursive Grid Indexing for Fast Non‐Uniform Quantization Without Binary Search

open access: yesSoftware: Practice and Experience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To present Recursive Grid Indexing (RGI), a practical software technique for accelerating non‐uniform quantization and predecessor queries without relying on binary search at any stage. Design/Methodology/Approach RGI replaces conventional logarithmic binary search with a recursive, low‐branching grid structure. The method constructs a

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

starU‐Net: An enhanced U‐Net architecture with star operation and multi‐view fusion for improved vessel segmentation

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Low‐contrast capillaries are often missed or fragmented by segmentation models, so we developed a shallow four‐level starU‐Net that combines star operation‐based feature extraction with dynamic snake convolution‐based multi‐view fusion for improved thin vessel continuity.

Rapid loss, and slow recovery, of coral reef structural complexity resulting from a prolonged marine heatwave

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using Structure‐from‐Motion photogrammetry in a longitudinal study, we show that although coral reef habitat complexity had declined significantly by the end of the most prolonged tropical marine heatwave on record, no further losses were detected and 3 years later the reef had begun to recover this critical ecosystem function.

Valorizing Erasure: Imperial Knowledge Production in Anglo‐American Coverage of Chad's ‘Toyota War’

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How does imperial knowledge production operate when Western media coverage of a Global South subject is predominantly admiring instead of hostile? This article addresses that question through critical discourse analysis of sixty‐three Anglo‐American news articles covering the Chad‐Libya conflict of the 1980s, the ‘Toyota War’.
