Pastoralists seasonal land rights in land administration : a study of Northern Kenya

, 2023
This thesis argues that incorporating pastoral land rights into the formal system requires identifying and securing pastoralists’ rights on migration corridors and dry season pastures in a manner that, first, reflects their customary practices about ‘where’ and ‘when’ they require access to the land, and second, aligning both the ‘when’ and the ‘where’

Antigen‐Detected NMR for Minimal Epitope Engineering and Structure‐Guided Selection of a NaV1.7‐Selective Nanobody

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A minimal extracellular epitope from voltage‐gated sodium channel NaV1.7 was engineered into an isotope‐labelled antigen for antigen‐detected nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Together with AlphaFold2 (AF2), this enabled structure‐guided selection of R4C8, a human NaV1.7‐selective nanobody that labels fixed NaV1.7‐expressing cells and produces staining

Raman Analysis of RNA Nucleotide Strands From SARS‐CoV‐2 Variants and Subvariants: A Step Forward in the Definition of “Raman Genome”

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Main Raman signals in RNA, related to helical backbone, ribofuranose ring, and nitrogenous bases, are affected by secondary structures that cause hyperchromic effects and significantly alter the Raman intensity. ABSTRACT Raman spectra of RNA nucleotide strands extracted from 20 SARS‐CoV‐2 strains, including the original Japanese isolate, Alpha, Beta ...

Sn‐Driven Grain Boundary Elimination for Single‐Crystalline Ni‐Rich Cathodes with Superior High‐Voltage Stability in Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A low‐temperature synthesis method of single‐crystalline NCA was successfully achieved by Sn doping, employing the same synthetic conditions as its polycrystalline counterparts. This synthesis was conducted at a temperature that was 150 °C lower than that required for synthesizing single‐crystalline NCA without Sn doping.

Spontaneous Cyclic Levitation of Glycerol‐Water Droplets at Low Pressures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Under low pressure, a minute glycerol addition transforms the chaotic dynamics of freezing water droplets into cyclic levitation. Freeze‐concentration preserves liquid pathways that relax expansion‐induced stress, while freezing point depression weakens asymmetric vaporization recoil.

Displacement and Land Administration

, 2015
Serious conflicts tend to lead to both significant displacements of people and competing claims over land. Forced displacement, due to the involvement of arms, disrupts the relation that people have with their land, leaving them with no other choice than to leave their land behind for their own safety. However, the temporary disruption has long-lasting

Architected Load Paths Enable Stiffening and Motion Programming in Soft Pneumatic Actuators

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A single MARS template introduces an architected reinforcement strategy for programmable soft pneumatic actuators through internal structural organization and selective beam removal. This monolithic architecture enables deformation reconfiguration from continuous bending to joint‐like articulation and torsional motion, allowing one compliant platform ...

Degrading GPX4 via Biomimetic Nanoparticle‐Mediated In Situ Synthesis of Deep‐Learning‐Designed Binder‐Degron Chimeras for Prostate Cancer Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A deep‐learning‐designed binder is fused to a combinatorial degron to create a binder‐degron chimera (bdC) that recruits the CUL2‐RING ubiquitin ligase complex. Encapsulation in a prostate‐cancer‐targeted, CD47‐camouflaged nanocarrier enables tumor‐specific in situ bdC expression, triggering GPX4 degradation and ferroptosis, thereby establishing a ...

Optimized Land–Water Management Expands Afforestation Potential Under Land and Human Water‐Use Constraints

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Human water demand constrains China's feasible afforestation potential more strongly than is commonly recognized, and future climate change further intensifies this limitation. Integrating land‐use optimization with water‐saving measures substantially expands feasible afforestation area and associated carbon sinks, revealing a practical pathway to ...
