Food Tastes in the United States: Convergence or Divergence?
ABSTRACT This study investigates how food consumption tastes have changed in recent decades across the United States. Using NielsenIQ data for over 77 million transactions, there is evidence of divergence in food tastes across regions from 2007 to 2016 and across households of different income, education, and race/ethnicity groups.

Rational Molecular Design to Improve Digital Polymer Readout in Aerolysin‐Based Nanopore Sequencing
Nanopore sensing holds significant yet underexplored potential for decoding synthetic digital polymers. In this study, we synthesized an extensive library of sequence‐defined poly(phosphodiester)s and evaluated their performance in aerolysin‐based sequencing. By systematically optimizing molecular parameters, we identified an ideal combination of coded
