Recent Advances in Wide‐Bandgap Perovskite Solar Cells
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Ubiquitous defects predominately account for photo‐instability and open‐circuit voltage losses in wide‐bandgap perovskite solar cells (WBG PSCs). This review comprehensively presents the underlying impact mechanisms, summarizes the advanced optimization strategies across various functional layers and their interfaces to develop efficient and stable WBG

An Aerial–Aquatic Hitchhiking Robot with Remora‐Inspired Tactile Sensors and Thrust Vectoring Units
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView., 2023 An untethered aerial–aquatic hitchhiking robot that can be remotely controlled for flying, swimming, and transiting air–water boundaries rapidly (0.16 s), is presented. Notably, it can autonomously attach to various surfaces in both air and water environments using a remora‐inspired suction disc with flexible tactile sensors.

Fate by Infection: Quantifying Host Behavioral Changes in Response to Four Variables of Trematode Infection [PDF]
, 2013 Although the importance of host-parasite interactions is increasingly recognized, few studies examine factors regulating how infection alters host behavior and the consequences of parasite-induced behavioral changes for predation risk.

Causal mechanisms underlying host specificity in bat ectoparasites [PDF]
, 2018 In parasites, host specificity may result either from restricted dispersal capacity or from fixed coevolutionary host-parasite adaptations. Knowledge of those proximal mechanisms leading to particular host specificity is fundamental to understand host ...
