Evolutionary morphology of the haplorhine hamate

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Primates adopt a variety of hand postures during an impressive diversity of locomotor and manipulative behaviors. Morphological research has found that elements of the hand skeleton, such as the hamate, hold key information for inferring hand use and locomotor kinematics in extinct species.

Fouling‐Free Inertial Microfluidic Cell Clarification for Lentivirus Manufacturing

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lentiviral vectors (LVVs) are widely used as gene‐delivery vehicles in cell and gene therapy, enabling stable integration of transgenes into target cells. However, efficient clarification of LVV harvest remains a major bottleneck in large‐scale manufacturing, as conventional depth filtration often results in significant product loss.

Orchard netting impacts on biodiversity leading to cascading effects at the ecosystem level

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agriculture must ensure food production without further compromising the ecosystem functions upon which it depends. Agricultural practices should therefore avoid harming farmland biodiversity, especially of taxa that supply the key ecosystem services (e.g.

Negative Poisson Ratio in Crystalline Membranes

Monte Carlo simulations of crystalline membranes were performed on a phantom polymerized triangular lattice model with hexagonal coordination to study the Poisson ratio and analyze its scaling behavior at the crumpling transition as a function of bending rigidity.

Free Trade Zones and Corporate ESG: Evidence From a Quasi‐Natural Experiment in China

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how China's Pilot Free Trade Zones (FTZs) influence corporate ESG performance. Using a staggered difference‐in‐differences model on Chinese listed firms from 2009 to 2024, we combine coarsened exact matching (CEM) and geography‐based instrumental variables to ensure robust identification.

When Nature Counts: Corporate Biodiversity Attention and Access to Bank Finance

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether corporate attention to biodiversity influences firms' access to bank loans, an overlooked question in the emerging biodiversity–finance literature. Using a novel, text‐based measure constructed from 446 biodiversity‐related keywords and applied to Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2000 to 2023, we show that ...

Navigating the Dichotomy of Uncertainty in Green Innovation and Digital Supply Chains

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amid growing environmental pressures and rapid technological disruption, understanding how digitalization reshapes corporate sustainability strategies has become increasingly vital. Supply chain digitalization (SCD) plays a pivotal role in enhancing firms' adaptive capacity, operational transparency, and innovation efficiency.

Demonstration of nanofiltration‐based virus safety for AAV manufacturing using model viruses

Biotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
Abstract Virus safety for biopharmaceutical products has been a well‐established concern for several decades. While various virus reduction steps have been identified and implemented for traditional plasma‐derived and monoclonal antibody products, there are various challenges to achieving the same virus safety in emerging gene therapy products.

Precision Chemistry for Protein Lysine Modification

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Selective modification of lysine residues is challenging due to their similar intrinsic reactivity. Inspired by enzymatic recognition, ligand‐guided electrophiles enable site‐selective labeling and functionalization, while ligand‐guided catalyses achieve regioselective installation of bio‐relevant post‐translational modifications.
