Exploiting Ferroelectric and Spintronic Dynamics for Neural Network Computation
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Ferroelectric and spintronic devices, relying on the control of polarization and magnetization, offer intrinsically fast, durable, energy‐efficient, and low‐latency building blocks for analog in‐memory computing. The hysteretic dynamics of an order parameter are leveraged to provide nonvolatile, multistate memory and nonlinear switching. Brain‐inspired

Dielectric Elastomer Actuators as Safe and Effective Tools for Mechanostimulation of Human Cells
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Replicating physiological forces is crucial for realistic cell models. Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) offer a soft alternative, though their high voltages raised toxicity concerns. We demonstrate that DEA stimulation causes no cell damage, cell death or cell‐cycle disruption, while activating mechanosensitive responses.

Food insecurity and unemployment among immigrants in the United States
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Immigrants can be more vulnerable to economic downturns and, during periods of economic hardship, more likely to experience food insecurity compared to natives. This study examines the differential effect of the unemployment rate on the probability of being food insecure among diverse groups of immigrant households relative to natives in the ...

Crop insurance and irrigation behavior: The conditional role of pumping costs
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Excessive water use for irrigation can accelerate the depletion of water resources, undermining agriculture's resilience to weather‐related shocks. Understanding how farmers make water use decisions is essential for developing effective water management policies.
