Miniaturized Magnetic Tip Design for Endoluminal Vine Robot Navigation

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A magnetic tip mount is designed for a miniaturized 7 mm soft‐growing vine robot to enable wireless magnetic steering and onboard imaging, while preserving a 3 mm working channel. The internal–external ring magnets design balances magnetic attachment with low eversion pressure. Experiments demonstrate ±90° steering, 34 mm bending radius, and successful

Systematically Engineering for Efficient Production of 3‐Methyl‐1‐Butanol in Escherichia coli

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated metabolic engineering strategy was established for high‐level 3‐methyl‐1‐butanol biosynthesis in Escherichia coli. Molecular dynamics‐guided semi‐rational engineering of dihydroxyacid dehydratase uncovered and relieved key catalytic bottlenecks, while adaptive laboratory evolution enhanced strain robustness.

Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy

Effectiveness of massed cognitive processing therapy for posttraumatic stress disorder: A retrospective analysis

Journal of Traumatic Stress, EarlyView.
Abstract Trauma exposure can lead to posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), a condition with significant individual and societal costs. Yet, access to evidence‐based PTSD treatment, such as cognitive processing therapy (CPT), remains limited. Delivering CPT on an accelerated (i.e., massed) schedule via telehealth could increase access while preserving ...

COPIS: A robust and versatile robotic imaging system for the 3D digitization of natural history specimens with photogrammetry

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecologists and evolutionary biologists are increasingly turning to 3D models to use in scientific research. Natural history museums are one of the primary sources for specimens used as 3D models, and efforts are underway to digitize their collections using methods like photogrammetry.
