Cougar density on the Oregon Coast: Using dead recovery modeling in an open population

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
The primary objective of this study was to determine cougar density in western Oregon. Our results demonstrate that integrating DNA collected via bio‐darting, mandatory hunter‐harvest check‐ins, and GPS collar data into the OPCR2 is a reliable method for estimating cougar densities in densely forested coastal systems.

Polyglycerol‐Based Lipids: A Next‐Generation Alternative to PEG in Lipid Nanoparticles for Advanced Drug Delivery Systems

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Linear polyglycerol is proposed as a PEG‐alternative in mRNA‐loaded lipid nanoparticles to limit activation of anti‐PEG antibodies and reduce immunogenicity. Resulting nanoparticles may provide similar gene delivery capabilities, while preventing binding of anti‐PEG antibodies compared to PEGylated counterparts.

Bi4Ti2.85Zr0.15O12/Nb: SrTiO3‐Based Artificial Optic Neuron for Synaptic Plasticity Simulation and Light‐Controlled Neuromorphic Computing

open access: yesMaterials Genome Engineering Advances, EarlyView.
An optoelectronic synapse based on Zr‐doped Bi4Ti3O12 exhibits learning/forgetting mimicry and achieves 94.2% accuracy on MNIST, demonstrating a novel pathway for high‐performance neuromorphic computing. ABSTRACT This study enhanced the optoelectronic properties of BIT (Bi4Ti3O12) through Zr doping at the B site, constructing an Au/Bi4Ti2.85Zr0.15O12 ...

Design, Analysis, and Experimental Validation of a Variable‐Gap Magnetorheological Damper for Seat Suspension

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To address the dual challenges of routine driving vibration and impact loads in vehicle seat suspensions, a novel variable‐gap magnetorheological damper (VGMRD) is proposed. By combining a tapered piston with a conformal variable‐diameter cylinder, stroke‐dependent, dual‐mode damping characteristics are achieved without the need for complex ...

Righting Past Wrongs Through Restorative Justice: Managerial Motivations for Collaboration

open access: yesNonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nonprofits are crucial to state collaborations as their embedded nature in communities allows them to gain the trust necessary to facilitate change and enhance strengths. As nonprofits collaborate with the public sector to tackle systemic challenges, understanding managerial motivations for collaboration and implications for social change is ...

Hunting motivations, behaviour and forest access: Characterising wildlife hunting practices in a multi‐ethnic, forested landscape of Brunei Darussalam, Southeast Asia

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Unsustainable hunting practices can alter population dynamics, driving biodiversity declines, which leads to ‘empty forests’. Understanding hunting behaviour, including motivations for hunting and relationships with market drivers, and access to hunting grounds are important to develop affirmative policies to stem biodiversity loss.

Gender dynamics of tropical wildmeat systems: A systematic map of women's roles and influence

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Wildmeat is a vital natural resource globally, which must be managed sustainably to avoid livelihood insecurity, species decline and biodiversity loss. Women have a pivotal role in harvesting, processing and distributing wildmeat, yet their contributions are often overlooked.
