Epistolution: a new principle necessary to a learning-first theory of life
Biological theory assumes the organized appearance of life and the reliable recurrence of traits are due to inheritance. Natural selection acting on blind variations produces phenotypes with heritable traits, one of which may be natural learning. The aim

Nucleic Acid‐Based Molecular Machines for Biological Applications
Molecular machines are devices assembled from molecules with specific functions. In this review, the development of DNA nanostructures, which are then assembled into molecular machines, is summarized. Their classification and biological applications, such as biosensing, targeted therapy, and molecular circuits are introduced.

‘Where are the adults?’: Troubling child‐activism and children's political participation
Abstract Children's political participation is a well‐established theme in childhood studies. In this article we offer an original account of child activism that takes into account the entangled and emergent aspect of children as activists. We begin with a historical and a conceptual review, noting the importance of mid‐20th century developments such ...

ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence and big data are increasingly being integrated into sustainable entrepreneurship practices. Yet, conventional literature often neglects to critically examine their economic, environmental, and social implications. We conducted a systematic literature review to understand when, how, and for whom artificial intelligence ...

Transition metal carbides (TMCs) have electronic structure similar to that of platinum group metals, making them attractive for thermocatalysis applications. This review explores several essential aspects, discussing physical and chemical properties of TMCs, synthesis methods, and their utilization in thermocatalytic processes, including generation of ...

In this article, the finite element method‐smoothed particle hydrodynamics adaptive coupling algorithm is applied to numerically simulate and analyze the dynamic response of the slit tube and the crack propagation under high in situ stress. The dynamic response of the slit tube mainly exhibits radial response in the vertical direction of the slit and ...

Abstract Exposure levels without appreciable human health risk may be determined by dividing a point of departure on a dose–response curve (e.g., benchmark dose) by a composite adjustment factor (AF). An “effect severity” AF (ESAF) is employed in some regulatory contexts.

Critical Evaluation of Methods for the Identification of Aneugens
ABSTRACT The genotoxic potential of chemicals must be evaluated in regulatory safety assessment settings, including but not limited to, the development of new pharmaceuticals, industrial chemicals, food and cosmetic ingredients, and agrochemicals. Initial assessment of the chromosome‐damaging potential of chemicals is often conducted in mammalian cells
