Testing a Roy Model with Productivity Spillovers: Evidence from the Treatment of Heart Attacks [PDF]
Productivity spillovers are often cited as a reason for geographic specialization in production. A large literature in medicine documents specialization across areas in the use of surgical treatments, which is unrelated to patient outcomes.

A Robotic Urinary Bladder Enabling Volume Monitoring and Assisted Micturition
An implantable robotic bladder is presented that can store urine in an origami‐designed enclosure. An inductance sensing principle can monitor and transfer the urine volume in real‐time. It can actively expand based on the amount of urine collected from kidneys and apply on‐demand mechanical compression to assist urination.

Contact Force Estimation of Continuum Robots without Embedded Sensors: A Review
This review surveys methods for estimating contact forces in continuum robots without embedded sensors. It explains why contact force matters, classifies force patterns, and groups existing methods into three approaches based on actuation, deformation, and environment information.
