Organic field‐effect transistor (OFET)‐based biosensors are promising for wearable technology due to their flexibility and low cost, but their susceptibility to signal drift from mechanical stress and environmental factors remains a challenge. Here, we highlight a novel strategy that eliminates these drifts through a fundamental redesign of the OFET ...

Restoring Trust: Rebuilding the Forest Carbon Credit System Through Scientific Rigor
ABSTRACT As pivotal nature‐based climate solutions (NbCS), forests are increasingly recognized for their climate mitigation potential. However, this potential is undermined by fundamental flaws in current carbon credit systems. Our analysis identifies four interconnected systemic challenges: (1) subjective additionality assessments arising from ...
