Laguna Fuente de Piedra: An example of a dolomite factory recording ~50,000 years of depositional and paleoclimatic evolution

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study characterises carbonate mineral precipitation mechanisms and their paleoenvironmental implications in a semi‐arid, saline playa lake system. SEM image with EDS spectra shows microcrystalline, spherical shaped dolomite crystals from Laguna Fuente de Piedra composed of nanocrystals with bacterial voids and EPS.

Wood wasp inspired space and earth drill [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this chapter, we explain why the low gravity encountered on Mars or on the Moon and the low mass of the probes, landers and rovers that carry drilling devices limit classical drilling techniques.

BURIED ORNAMENTS: EXPLORING FUNERARY BEHAVIOURS IN THE CHALCOLITHIC FROM THE LOWER DANUBE

open access: yesOxford Journal of Archaeology, Volume 45, Issue 1, Page 2-27, February 2026.
Summary This article focuses on personal adornments found in Chalcolithic funerary contexts from the Lower Danube. Generally, these artefacts are made from exotic raw materials originating from the Mediterranean sea, particularly Spondylus shells, along with Glycymeris or Antalis shells, and less frequently from local materials.

Neuroimmune Microenvironment Reprogramming via Immuno‐piezoelectric Transducers for Synergistic Stem Cell Therapy in Traumatic Brain Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 2, 8 January 2026.
A novel immuno‐piezoelectric transducer is innovatively developed. This device promotes neural stem cell (NSC) differentiation and maturation via ultrasound‐induced electrical stimulation and it amplifies the therapeutic efficacy of NSC in traumatic brain injury (TBI) by modulating the immune microenvironment. This piezoelectric transducer with “immune‐

The Twin‐Rooted Anomaly: Endodontic Management of a Rare Case of a Maxillary Central Incisor With Two Roots

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This case report describes the endodontic management of a maxillary central incisor with two roots, representing a rare anatomical variation. A 73‐year‐old female patient presented with a fractured tooth #21 with a carious crown. Pulp sensibility testing using cold spray elicited a sharp and prolonged painful response, consistent with a ...
