Participatory budgeting : heading towards a ‘civil’ democracy?

, 2010
This paper provides a theoretical evaluation of the recent spread of participatory budgeting practices worldwide. Several different participatory initiatives are emerging, but participatory budgeting (PB) seems to be the most valid option for dealing ...

One‐Component Carbon Dot Photoinitiator Enables High‐Fidelity Digital Light Processing 3D Printing With Improved Mechanical Resistance

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Furfural carbon dots functionalized with acylphosphine oxide photosensitive groups (CD‐PO PI) demonstrate potential as one‐component photoinitiators for digital light processing (DLP) 3D printing. Compared to conventional diphenyl(2,4,6‐trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide (TPO), CD‐PO PI offers improved printing resolution, resin toughness, and biological

Self‐Healing Hydrogel‐Enabled Modular Assembly of Bilayered Skin Construct for Hair Follicle Regeneration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐healing assembly of two cell‐laden hydrogel layers creates a biomimetic skin construct that restores both dermal and epidermal functions, resulting in accelerated wound healing and enhanced hair follicle regeneration in a full‐thickness skin wound model. ABSTRACT Alopecia remains a pervasive clinical challenge, largely owing to the limited ability

NeuroVisio SyncPatch: A Skin‐Conformal Multimodal EMG–Motion Sensing Platform for Quantitative Neuromuscular Rehabilitation and Performance Monitoring

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
NeuroVisio SyncPatch integrates skin‐conformal electromyography (EMG) electrodes with camera‐tracked markers to jointly assess muscle activity and three‐dimensional knee kinematics during rehabilitation. Parallel feedback pathways provide real‐time kinematic guidance during movement and post‐trial neuromuscular feedback.

Does direct democracy increase civic virtues? A systematic literature review

Frontiers in Political Science
Due to widespread citizen disenchantment with representative democracy, the introduction of direct-democratic institutions is often promoted as a promising remedy to overcome the current democratic crisis. Theorists of participatory democracy have argued

Helicity‐Defined Analog Conductance States in Chiral Perovskite Synapses

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Chiral perovskite synapses convert the handedness of circularly polarized light into persistent analog memory during electrical programming. An optimized n = 3 structure combines strong helicity selectivity with low read noise, enabling 72 distinct conductance levels.

Coordination Bridges in Confined‐Water Domains Enable Partially Desolvated Zn2+ Transport in Aqueous Zinc‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A multifunctional polymer layer with amide and imidazolium groups simultaneously suppresses dendrite growth and hydrogen evolution in Zn‐ion batteries. By providing Zn2+ binding sites and forming a confined‐water domain that acts as a coordination bridge, it boosts single‐ion conductivity and stability, enabling 4000 stable cycles in Zn‐I2 full cells ...

Conformal Coating and Transfer of 2D Nanomaterials via Dynamic Interface Engineering

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This review discusses conformal coating and transfer of two‐dimensional (2D) nanomaterials with a focus on dynamic interface engineering. By actively regulating nanosheet transport and interfacial contact during film formation, recent dynamic coating strategies overcome the limitations of conventional passive approaches and enable geometry‐adaptive ...
