Seeing the Speaker's Face Enhances Second Language Shadowing: Neural and Behavioral Evidence
Abstract This functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study investigated how facial cues influence second language (L2) shadowing among 42 Japanese learners of English. Participants completed four conditions that varied by task type (listening vs. shadowing) and visual input (face vs. mosaic).

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Menstrual cycle effects on sex differences in motor control during dynamic balance perturbations
Abstract This study investigated sex differences in neuromuscular responses during dynamic balance perturbations and isometric maximal voluntary contractions (IMVCs) by examining if menstrual cycle (MC) phase and the fluctuations in endogenous hormones influence the observation of sex differences.

Electromagnetic Noise Characterization and Suppression in Low‐Field MRI Systems
ABSTRACT Purpose Our goal is to develop and validate a practical protocol that guides users in identifying and suppressing electromagnetic noise in low‐field MRI systems, enabling operation near the thermal noise limit. Methods We present a systematic, stepwise methodology that includes diagnostic measurements, hardware isolation strategies, and good ...

Abstract Understanding the mechanisms linking low‐latitude monsoon variability and high‐latitude ice‐sheet discharge is critical for elucidating past atmospheric teleconnections, yet direct evidence for such linkages during the last glacial period remains limited. Here we present a high‐resolution terrigenous input record from the South China Sea (SCS)

Oxygen Evolution Reaction Catalysts for Acidic‐Media CO2 Electrolyzers
Acidic‐media CO2 electroreduction (CO2R) could decarbonize chemical production, despite relying on rare‐earth elements for anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Transferring the learnings from mature sister technologies (water electrolysis) could accelerate technological development.

Sleep Alters the Velocity of Physiological Brain Pulsations in Humans
Sleep alters I/CSF oscillatory flow, driven by increased respiratory (29%) and vasomotor pulsation (21%) velocities, while cardiovascular pulsations decreased by (22%). Velocity is quantified using optical flow analysis of MREG data. Spectral power increases alongside these pulsations (spatial correlation, r = 0.35 and r = 0.39, respectively ...
