Safety Evaluation of Repeated Application of Polymeric Microarray Patches in Miniature Pigs
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This study demonstrates the safety of repeated application of three types of microarray patches (MAPs), hydrogelforming, dissolving, and implantable, over four weeks in miniature pigs. No adverse skin or systemic effects were observed, supporting the clinical potential of MAPs as safe and effective drug delivery platforms.

Multimodal interactions in Stomoxys navigation reveal synergy between olfaction and vision
Scientific ReportsStomoxys flies exhibit an attraction toward objects that offer no rewards, such as traps and targets devoid of blood or nectar incentives. This behavior provides an opportunity to develop effective tools for vector control and monitoring.

Companion planting to attract pollinators increases the yield and quality of strawberry fruit in gardens and allotments [PDF]
, 2020 1. Global pollinator declines have led to concern that crop yields might fall as a result of a pollination deficit. Companion planting is a traditional practice thought to increase yield of insect pollinated crops by planting a co-flowering species next ...

Biomimetic Cell Membrane‐Coated Scaffolds for Enhanced Tissue Regeneration
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This review examines the development and use of cell membrane‐coated scaffolds in tissue engineering. Bioinspired phospholipid and glycocalyx coatings enhance anti‐fouling, anti‐thrombogenic, and selective molecular recognition properties. Native cell membrane coatings further support cell‐specific interactions, immune modulation, and reduced bacterial
