Surface Wrinkling of Plasma‐Exposed PDMS is Caused by Water Vapor Sorption: An Optical Environmental Sensor

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Wrinkling of soft materials, such as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), underpins a myriad of technologies. Plasma‐oxidation of PDMS induces spontaneous wrinkling, which is canonically attributed to thermal expansion‐contraction of bilayers. Employing experiments and modelling, it is demonstrated that sorption of water vapor is instead responsible for ...

Happiness and International Migration [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper, we consider the extent to which the aggregate happiness of a country affects the flow of people across its borders. We merge data from the World Values Survey, which produces happiness indices for 84 countries between 1981 and 2004, with ...

Mechanisms of Anode Interfacial Phenomena and Multi‐perspective Optimization in Aqueous Alkaline Zinc‐Air Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Zinc‐air batteries demonstrate great potential for sustainable energy storage but face major anode‐related challenges. This review provides a mechanism‐driven overview of zinc anode interfacial issues, e.g. dendrite formation, passivation, self‐corrosion, and hydrogen evolution; and explores advances in electrode, surface, and electrolyte engineering ...

Smart Polymeric 3D Microscaffolds Hosting Spheroids for Neuronal Research via Quantum Metrology

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 7, March 14, 2025.
Development of a platform consisting of 3D microscaffolds supporting 3D embryoid bodies for neuronal research. The polymeric scaffolds enable directed growth of neurites. This study shows nanodiamond‐based quantum sensors graft onto the polymer material, enabling quantum metrology experiments within the 3D neuronal model and thereby providing a ...

Differences in health related quality of life among older migrants and nonmigrants in India

open access: yesScientific Reports
Increasing age with migration status might have a double risk of vulnerability to poor health outcomes. There is a lack of population-based studies on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of older migrants in India.

Implementing BMP‐7 Chemically Modified RNA for Bone Regeneration with 3D Printable Hyaluronic Acid‐Collagen Granular Gels

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study developed 3D‐printable THA‐Col microgels for delivering BMP‐7 cmRNA. The key result is that hMSCs transfected on the biomaterials showed BMP‐7 secretion levels comparable to pre‐transfected hMSCs, therefore introducing a cmRNA‐activated matrix to promote bone healing.

Essays in Internal and International Migration

open access: yesDrug Development Research, 2014
This dissertation investigates how internal migration spreads local shocks to the national market. The first chapter describes a dynamic model of internal migration where in equilibrium there are always positive internal migration flows across locations.

Generalizing Gelatin Methacryloyl Granular Hydrogel Fabrication Using Stable Microgels with Predictable Stiffness

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) granular hydrogel scaffolds (GHS) are fabricated using a generalized two‐step photocrosslinking approach to yield stable (non‐dissolving) microgels suitable for in situ covalent assembly under physiological conditions. A phase diagram is developed to define the interplay between individual microgel stability and scaffold ...
