Embodied urban design: Fostering nature connectedness for pro‐conservation behaviour
Abstract Those who feel more connected with nature are more likely to act in ways that support biodiversity. How connected people feel with nature depends in part on how meaningfully it figures into their experience of the built environment. Despite an increase in urban greening measures, these approaches often overlook how people perceive, interact ...

Tiny, leafless fairy lanterns are easily overlooked on the forest floor. Thismia abei, endemic to Japan, persists in small, unstable populations and is listed nationally as Critically Endangered. Our recent work has revealed another, less obvious form of obscurity.

A two‐pronged screen of small molecules – (1) on recombinant kinin receptor and (2) through topical application – identifies kinin receptor antagonists, feeding behavior modulators, and new mosquitocidal molecules. Abstract BACKGROUND Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes are primary vectors for numerous human and animal pathogens and ...

An autonomous network of acoustic detectors to map tiger risk by eavesdropping on prey alarm calls
Tiger population recovery brings with it increased fatalities from human‐tiger conflict. We describe a network of autonomous intelligent passive acoustic sensors that monitor the forest for deer alarm calls as a proxy for tiger risk and provide a risk map to local communities in real‐time.

Noise‐Induced Hearing Loss: From Pathological Mechanisms to Therapeutic Interventions
ABSTRACT Noise‐induced hearing loss (NIHL), a significant non‐genetic form of hearing impairment, is primarily managed through the use of hearing aids and cochlear implants. However, the fundamental pathological mechanisms underlying NIHL remain inadequately addressed.

Organizing across cognitive asymmetry in human–AI collaboration: A study of perfume creation
Abstract Research Summary As organizations increasingly adopt generative AI (GenAI), they face a strategic challenge: not only deciding which tasks AI should perform, but also how to organize the integration of human and AI efforts to produce viable solutions.

Believing in simulated virtual scents produces reported olfactory sensations
Predictive processing (PP) refers to the brain’s ability to incorporate present and prior sensory information about states of the body and the environment, enhancing various cognitive functions including perception, motor control, decision-making, and ...

Information Dynamics and Learning in Complex Adaptive Systems: Toward a Transdisciplinary Framework
ABSTRACT This article develops a framework for understanding learning and adaptation in complex adaptive systems. Drawing from neuroscience, systems theory, information theory and quantum field theory, it examines how information processing, plasticity and systemic coherence emerge from distributed, nonlinear and feedback‐driven interactions. It argues
