Co‐Teaching in a Virtual Intensive Study Language Programme: Insights From Team Ethnography

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As virtual study abroad becomes an increasingly important form of international education, little is known about how transnational teaching is organised and sustained across institutions. Using activity theory as an analytical framework and team ethnography as methodology, this study examines a virtual intensive study (VIS) programme delivered

Predictive evolutionary genomics: principles, validation, and practice

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 1, Page 36-48, October 2026.
Summary Climate change and habitat loss are driving rapid evolutionary responses in populations world‐wide, which creates an urgent need for evolutionary forecasting in conservation and agriculture. Such forecasting can be categorized into three time scales: trait‐based models that use multivariate quantitative genetic equations to project correlated ...

Advanced Electrospun Nanofiber Epidermal Electronics for Electrophysiological Monitoring: From Conformal Interfaces to Multimodal Closed‐Loop Systems

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Epidermal bioelectronics is a transformative technology for continuous health monitoring and human‐computer interaction. However, the mechanical and physiological mismatch at the skin–device interface limits its long‐term application. Electrospun nanofiber membranes (ENMs), with their unique three‐dimensional hierarchical porous network and ...
