Seeing is believing: Voluntary gender quotas change female leadership stereotypes
Research & PoliticsCan gender quotas voluntarily adopted by political parties alter stereotypical views about women in politics? This article examines Namibia’s SWAPO, an electorally dominant party that introduced a 50/50 gender quota in 2013.

Flexible multibody modelling for the mechatronic design of compliant mechanisms [PDF]
, 2010 In high precision equipment the use of compliant mechanisms is favourable as elastic joints offer the advantages of low friction and no backlash. To satisfy exact constraint design the mechanism should have exactly the required degrees of freedom and ...

Targeted Mitochondrial ECSIT Overexpression Attenuates MASH by Increasing OTUD3 Expression
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Mitochondrial ECSIT expression is reduced during MASH pathogenesis. Overexpression of mitochondrial ECSIT mitigates steatohepatitis and maintains hepatic metabolic homeostasis. Mechanistically, ECSIT enhances intramitochondrial OTUD3 expression to stabilize SIRT3 through deubiquitination, thus preserving mitochondrial function and impeding disease ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Mechanical loading induces a previously unrecognized Sox9+Acan+ transitional mesenchymal cell population in the periodontal ligament that promotes osteoclastogenesis via the FGF2–FGFR2–ERK axis. Targeting this mechanoresponsive stromal population using a localized GelMA@siRNA delivery strategy attenuates pathological osteoclast overactivation and root ...

An antenna-pointing mechanism for the ETS-6 K-band Single Access (KSA) antenna [PDF]
Both the design philosophy for the Antenna Pointing Mechanism (APM) to be used for the K-band Single Access (KSA) antenna system and experimental results of the APM Engineering Model (EM) tests are described.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A synergistic electron transfer (ET) optimization strategy modulating conformational dynamics, ET pathway, and substrate orientation is proposed for self‐sufficient cytochrome P450s. Guided by this strategy, a P450 variant with improved ET and catalytic efficiency was identified, and the underlying molecular basis was revealed by computational analysis.

A new fabrication method for precision antenna reflectors for space flight and ground test [PDF]
Communications satellites are using increasingly higher frequencies that require increasingly precise antenna reflectors for use in space. Traditional industry fabrication methods for space antenna reflectors employ successive modeling techniques using ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.An ionic liquid‐based shear‐thickening fluid (ILSTF) exhibits lubricated dynamics from strong shear thickening to impact‐triggered jamming. A persistent nanometric solvation layer around silica governs both the shear thickening saturation in rheology and jamming front propagation under dynamic impact compression.
