Printed Organic Thermoelectric Generators: Progress and Challenges Towards Efficient Energy Harvesting

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Printed organic thermoelectric generators (OTEGs) enable flexible and sustainable energy harvesting from low‐grade heat. This Perspective critically assesses recent advances in printable thermoelectric materials, 2D and 3D device architectures, and current performance limits of printed OTEGs.

Controlling Ultrafast Photonic‐Plasmonic Coupling in a Hybrid Platform for Biosensing Applications

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A metal–dielectric hybrid composed of gold nanocaps on opal exhibits a broad near‐infrared plasmonic resonance interacting with the photonic bandgap under ultrafast transient conditions. This coupling can be controlled by varying the excitation wavelength and is responsive to bacterial deposition, opening new opportunities for ultrafast biosensing ...

A Soft Robotic Device for Targeted Massage Therapy of Residual Limbs

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Residual limb edema after amputation can hinder recovery and delay prosthetic fitting. This study presents a soft‐robotic wearable device that delivers sequential compression through pneumatic McKibben actuators. By replicating the principles of manual lymphatic drainage, the device generates controlled mechanotherapeutic pressure patterns, providing a

Management of hepatocellular carcinoma prior to liver transplantation: latest developments

Hepatic Oncology
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly morbid malignancy that is a leading cause of death in patients with cirrhosis or chronic hepatitis B. Liver transplantation is considered a curative therapy for HCC, with 5-year survival rates exceeding 75 ...

Endocytic Control of Cell‐Autonomous and Non‐Cell‐Autonomous Functions of p53

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
NUMB Ex3‐containing isoforms localize to the plasma membrane, where they recruit p53 through SNX9 and direct it to multivesicular bodies and exosomes. Exported p53 is taken up by neighboring cells and activates nuclear programs, revealing an intercellular, exosome‐based pathway that might help establish a tumor‐suppressive microenvironment.

Timing Mechanotransduction: Mechanically Dynamic Biomaterials Reveal the Temporal Hierarchy of YAP/TAZ Control Nodes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work develops dynamically softening polyacrylamide hydrogels for time‐resolved imaging during continuous mechanical transitions. The study revealed that mechanotransduction is biphasic; YAP/TAZ inactivation is driven by early loss of the nucleocytoskeletal continuum connecting subnuclear adhesions, F‐actin, and the nuclear envelope, coupled with ...

Intracellular Reactive Oxygen Species Generation Induced by High‐Frequency Ultrasound in Thickness Vibration Mode

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cell‐sized high‐frequency ultrasound using a lithium niobate transducer, previously ignored in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, generated intracellular ROS at frequencies higher than conventionally used. The intracellular generation of ROS by cell‐sized high‐frequency ultrasound revealed in this study is expected to be applied to innovative ...

Encoding Cumulation to Learn Perturbative Nonlinear Oscillatory Dynamics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Weak nonlinearities critically shape the long term behavior of oscillatory systems but are difficult to identify from data. A data‐driven framework is introduced to infer governing equations of weakly nonlinear oscillators from sparse and noisy observations.

Reclaiming Public Space Through Governance Transformation: The Case of Piazze Aperte, Milan

Urban Planning
This article examines Piazze Aperte—the tactical urbanism programme promoted by the Municipality of Milan—as a policy device that reconfigures how streets can be reclaimed, governed, and collectively used.
