Structural Colors from Modulated Topological Defects in Molecular Smectic Liquid Crystals

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Rather than using dyes and pigments, nature produces the colors of some butterflies and beetles through optical interference phenomena. This study describes an original biomimetic strategy exploiting the spontaneous formation of modulated linear defects in thin films of 8CB, a common molecular liquid crystal.

From Displacement to Angle: Diamond‐Based 3D Rotation Sensing for High‐Precision Cellular Force Measurement

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cellular forces are traditionally inferred from displacement measurements, which lack rotational information and are constrained by linear model assumptions. This work replaces displacement with rotational angle for the fundamental mechanical readout.

Lithium Niobate Electro‐Optic Photonic Processor for Variational Quantum Eigensolver

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated lithium‐niobate‐on‐insulator ququart processor implements an electro‐optically controlled photonic variational quantum eigensolver using single photons encoded in four path modes. Bell‐basis‐emulating ququart projective measurements reduce measurement settings while achieving chemical‐accuracy‐level molecular‐energy estimation.

Specific Objects [PDF]

The research explores Donald Judd's concept of Specific Objects, and how the notion of singular qualities, so essential to the concept, can be extended through the practice of sculpture.

Automated Alignment Powered by Computer Vision Streamlines the Two‐Photon Polymerization‐Based Micro 3D Printing of Multiscale and Multimaterial Structures

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Two‐photon polymerization enables high‐resolution microfabrication, but performing alignment when printing multiple structures is difficult. Here, we present a fast, robust, and open‐source protocol for automated alignment on Nanoscribe systems. Achieving ≈0.4 μm accuracy in under 5 s, our protocol reduces time and error in multimaterial printing. This

Cell Segmentation Beyond 2D—A Review of the State‐of‐the‐Art

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Cell segmentation underpins many biological image analysis tasks, yet most deep learning methods remain limited to 2D despite the inherently 3D nature of cellular processes. This review surveys segmentation approaches beyond 2D, comparing 2.5D and fully 3D methods, analyzing 31 models and 32 volumetric datasets, and introducing a unified reference ...

Smart Denture with Embedded Thin‐Film Temperature Sensors Patterned by Femtosecond Laser Pulse for Elderly Healthcare

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
We demonstrate the direct‐laser patterning of a gold thin film on polymethyl methacrylate to fabricate a temperature sensor for dentures. The temperature sensor‐embedded smart dentures are evaluated in an oral environment, enabling in‐situ monitoring for elderly healthcare.

Adipose‐derived mesenchymal stem cell injection into the KI10 acupoint mitigates cartilage damage in KOA rats through PGE2‐mediated α7nAChR/NF‐κB pathway

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In our research, KOA rat models were established and treated with ADSC injection into the KI10 acupoint. Pain relief, behavioral function, and joint structural improvements were systematically assessed using ethological tests, imaging, histopathological staining, transmission electron microscopy, and molecular analyses.

Dental crown morphological variation and heterodonty in carcharhiniform sharks

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Elasmobranch teeth are highly mineralized structures that constitute the majority of the fossil record for this group. Despite their taxonomic and evolutionary significance, detailed descriptions of dental morphology remain scarce. The order Carcharhiniformes, the most diverse among sharks, comprises 304 valid species that display remarkable ...

A second species of non‐crocodyliform crocodylomorph from the Late Triassic fissure deposits of southwestern UK: Implications for locomotory ecological diversity in Saltoposuchidae

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Late Triassic–Early Jurassic fissures of the Bristol Channel area (southwest England and south Wales) are renowned for their diverse vertebrate faunas. These assemblages have yielded an array of predominantly small‐bodied forms that are crucial to our understanding of the early evolution of several major tetrapod clades.
