3D Printed Omniphobic Slippery Liquid Infused Porous Surfaces for Low Surface Tension Repellency

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A 3D printing strategy fabricates omniphobic slippery liquid‐infused porous structures with lubricant reservoirs and interconnected microchannels. A post‐printing surface treatment modifies the porous surface to ensure compatibility with the infused fluorinated lubricant.

Effect of Marine Reference on Inferred Evolutionary Patterns of Freshwater Stickleback

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Threespine stickleback are a model system for studying rapid and parallel evolution. Studies characterizing freshwater evolution often use contemporary marines as an ancestral proxy, an approach that relies on untested assumptions about the lack of ...
