Mechanochemistry: Fundamental Principles and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this review, the physicochemical principles of mechanochemistry are first clarified. Based on this foundation, the research basis and cutting‐edge scientific achievements in four areas are introduced: solid‐state organic chemistry, polymers, interface science, and biomechanochemistry.

How forest insect outbreaks depend on forest size and tree distribution: an individual-based model results [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
In this work, an individual-based model of forest insect outbreaks is presented. The results obtained show that the outbreak is an emerging feature of the system. It is a common product of the characteristics of insects, the environment in which the insects live, and the way insects behave in it. The outbreak dynamics is an effect of scale.

Insect evolution [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2015
It goes without saying that insects epitomize diversity, and with over a million documented species they stand out as one of the most remarkable lineages in the 3.5-billion-year history of life on earth (Figure 1). This reality is passé to even the layperson and is taken for granted in the same way none of us think much of our breathing as we go about ...

Advances in Microfluidic Cochlea‐On‐A‐Chip

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review systematically examines diverse cell sources for inner ear organoids and outlines stepwise induction protocols. Furthermore, it discusses current applications and prospective developments of cochlea‐on‐a‐chip technologies in areas such as deafness modeling, mechanistic studies, and drug evaluation, with particular focus on gene‐therapy drug

Protease‐Mediated Synthesis of Zein Nanofibrils: From Structural Elucidation to Functional Application

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The globular shape and hydrophobicity of zein made it unsuitable to be processed in pure aqueous environment. Pepsin‐mediated hydrolysis converts zein into water‐soluble and fibril‐forming peptides with a bioconversion rate exceeding 70%, enabling the self‐assembly of amyloid‐like nanofibrils.

Basic offspring number and robust feedback design for the biological control of vectors by sterile insect release technique [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is a promising control method against insect pests and insect vectors. It consists in releasing males previously sterilized in laboratory, in order to reduce or eliminate a specific wild population. We study in this paper the implementation by feedback control of SIT-based elimination campaign of Aedes mosquitoes.
