A novel method that combines 3D printing and organ‐on‐chip technology enables the creation of hollow channels lined with endothelial cells through a fibroblast‐populated connective tissue matrix. The model supports stable metabolic culture conditions, angiogenic sprouting, and immune cell migration, thereby demonstrating an easy and versatile method to

Islandness: Vulnerability and resilience in Oceania [PDF]
Pacific and other islands have long been represented as sites of vulnerability. Despite this, communities on many Pacific islands survived for millennia prior to the intrusion of people from Europe into their realm. An examination of traditional disaster

Atlantic Ocean Heat Transport Enabled by Indo-Pacific Heat Uptake and Mixing [PDF]
The ocean transports vast amounts of heat around the planet, helping to regulate regional climate. One important component of this heat transport is the movement of warm water from equatorial regions toward the poles, with colder water flowing in return.

Chemomechanical Origin of Morphological Disparity in Lithium Metal Electrodeposition
Selective dissociation of either solvent or salt on copper current collector induced different solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layers. The solvent derived organic SEI favors formation of Li whisker, while salt derived SEI favors formation of Li particle, revealing the root cause of Li morphology disparity within the same cell.
