Missed SDG targets: from ‘trying harder’ to engaging critically with paradox and conflict
Critical Public HealthThis article explores a radical hypothesis: that our repeated failure to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) signals something inherently paradoxical within the current approach, suggesting that simply doing ‘more of the same’ will not ...

A Perspective on Interactive Theorem Provers in Physics
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Into an interactive theorem provers (ITPs), one can write mathematical definitions, theorems and proofs, and the correctness of those results is automatically checked. This perspective goes over the best usage of ITPs within physics and motivates the open‐source community run project PhysLean, the aim of which is to be a library for digitalized physics

Let’s Make a Deal: Sleeping Beauty and Monty Hall Are the Same “Paradox”
MathematicsThe Monty Hall problem and the Sleeping Beauty paradox are two of the best-known problems in probability theory and information theory. The essence of both is asking what credence a player should give to one of two options, when the options presented ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Prolonged exposure to stiff extracellular matrix drives cancer‐associated fibroblasts into a persistently activated myofibroblast state. Two parallel pathways are identified: β1 integrin activation smoothens the nuclear lamina to reduce lamin–chromatin contacts, while the formin mDia2 regulates nuclear actin to alter chromatin organization.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer‐related death. We investigated the role of the epigenetic regulator DMAP1 in NSCLC and found that its loss induces replication stress and DNA damage. This in turn activates type I IFN signaling via the cGAS–STING pathway and transcriptional ISG de‐repression, enhancing anti‐tumor immune responses ...

Paradoxes and Antinomies in the Professional Acting of Teachers
Forum: Qualitative Social Research, 2000 Teachers continually experience boundaries in their work which are almost impossible to overcome. Particular acts, contradictory in themselves, hinder the development of pupils' learning processes.
