High‐Performance Rechargeable Lithium‐Chlorine Batteries with ALD Conformal Starburst Porous Graphene Positive Electrodes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An Al2O3‐skinned starburst porous graphene with conformal metasurfaces is crafted from a hierarchical porous graphene with high surface pore curvature by PTFE microemulsion skin effect, leveraging subsequent atomic layer deposition of Al2O3 groups. The scalable heterostructured cathode features superhydrophilicity, effective adsorption, fast kinetics ...

Superelastic Fire‐Safe Aerogel with Hierarchical Structures via Dual Templates Aided by Microbubble Engineering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Here, a dual‐template strategy (ice and bubble template) is used to prepare fire‐safe aerogels with hierarchical structures. When the foam expansion ratio exceeds the jamming transition value in the foam system, the aerogels demonstrate superelasticity and extreme shape adaptability.

Bioprinted Organoids: An Innovative Engine in Biomedicine

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bioprinted organoids refer to either the printing of stem cells into tissue shape and subsequent differentiate into organoids, or assembling induced organoids as bioinks to replicate native organ. It enables the creation of miniaturized organs with complex architectures and physiological functions, potentially enhancing reproducibility, throughput, and

Dynamic eIF3‐S6 Phase Separation Switch Instructed by m6A Modification Drives the Molting of Locusts

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This research reveals that reduced m6A modifications during insect molting trigger liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS) of the m6A reader eIF3‐S6, which binds and stabilizes key molting mRNAs, including EcR and Cht10. Disrupting m6A or LLPS causes cuticle remodeling defects and molting failure, highlighting the synergistic control of gene expression ...
