Spotlight Session on Autonomous Weapons Systems at ICRC 34th International Conference [PDF]
arXivAutonomous weapons systems (AWS) change the way humans make decisions, the effect of those decisions and who is accountable for decisions made. We must remain vigilant, informed and human-centred as we tackle our deliberations on developing norms regarding their development, use and justification.

Targeting miRNA‐1a and miRNA‐15b: A Novel Combinatorial Strategy to Drive Adult Cardiac Regeneration
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The article explores a novel therapeutic strategy for cardiac regeneration by targeting miRNA‐1a and miRNA‐15b. Combinatorial inhibition of miR‐1a and miR‐15b enhances cardiomyocyte proliferation, improves heart function, and reduces fibrosis in myocardial infarction models.

Effects of data ambiguity and cognitive biases on the interpretability of machine learning models in humanitarian decision making [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 The effectiveness of machine learning algorithms depends on the quality and amount of data and the operationalization and interpretation by the human analyst. In humanitarian response, data is often lacking or overburdening, thus ambiguous, and the time-scarce, volatile, insecure environments of humanitarian activities are likely to inflict cognitive ...

Chiral Switch of Gadopiclenol: New Standards in MRI Probes
Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 14, April 10, 2025.The stereochemistry of the coordinating side arms of the polyaminocarboxylic ligand piclenol is found to be crucial in determining the MRI contrast efficiency of the corresponding Gd(III)‐complex (“gadopiclenol”). This finding allowed to identify the most effective enantiomer of gadopiclenol, the latter being used as the first clinically approved q = 2

Safety Co-Option and Compromised National Security: The Self-Fulfilling Prophecy of Weakened AI Risk Thresholds [PDF]
arXivRisk thresholds provide a measure of the level of risk exposure that a society or individual is willing to withstand, ultimately shaping how we determine the safety of technological systems. Against the backdrop of the Cold War, the first risk analyses, such as those devised for nuclear systems, cemented societally accepted risk thresholds against ...

Tuning Aggregation in Liquid‐Crystalline Squaraine Chromophores
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A novel squaraine dye (SQ) forming columnar liquid crystal (LC) phase is synthesized, whose aggregate state can be tuned without disturbing the columnar structures. The liquid crystallization not only offers a rich spectrum and tuning method of optical property but also a novel path for the prescriptive functionalization of LC SQ materials.
