Line-of-Sight MIMO via Intelligent Reflecting Surface
This paper deals with line-of-sight (LOS) MIMO communication via an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS). It is shown that the number of spatial degrees of freedom (DOF) afforded by this setting grows in proportion with the IRS aperture, as opposed to being dictated by the transmit and receive apertures; this buttresses the interest in IRS deployments ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...
