Pre‐Curved Everting Robots With Embedded Steering Intelligence Fabricated by CO2 Laser Welding
Design and experimental demonstration of a laser welded growing robot for anatomically guided navigation. The robot follows an aortic arch phantom entering the branchiocephalic branch through steering by design. The figure shows the physical phantom setup, CAD defined weld geometry and full robot eversion.

ABSTRACT Parabens (PBs) are compounds widely used as preservatives in personal care products, food, and pharmaceuticals. Methylparaben (MePB) is the most used by different industries due to its chemical properties and low cost. The high daily human exposure to these compounds has raised concerns about their potential effects on health, particularly on ...

Mead products brewed from five yeast strains at three honey concentrations were analyzed using comprehensive two‐dimensional gas chromatography. Across sample groups, 98 compounds were detected from 18 classes. The relationship between production variables and the final VOC profile of mead can contribute to consumer understanding of contents and health

We estimated seasonal space use, cover selection, and resource selection; evaluated gene flow and potential genetic barriers; and assessed cause‐specific survival rates and reproduction of radiomarked gray foxes in Indiana, USA. Our results provide evidence that gray foxes in Indiana are an edge species with relatively large home ranges, relatively low

Surface Composition and Temperature Interact to Shape Viral Survival and Growth
Environmental surface type and temperature interact synergistically to shape viral survival and reproduction. Using bacteriophages T4 and φX174 on copper, steel and plastic at different temperatures, we demonstrate that survival and reproductive capacity are partially decoupled traits, with copper at 37°C causing rapid viral inactivation while their ...

Measuring stabilized heart rates in the prairie lizard, a small vertebrate ectotherm
Abstract The ability to accurately measure heart rates is vital for studying the ecological and evolutionary pressures on animals because cardiovascular regulation is associated with key physiological responses to environmental change. Heart rates, especially in ectotherms, are influenced by multiple factors over both the short and long term, including

Tipping Points in Bacterial Richness Amplify Extracellular Enzyme Activities in Northern Peatlands
Using a trans‐Holarctic survey in Sphagnum‐dominated peatlands, we identify a critical bacterial biodiversity threshold. Below this threshold, ecosystem function shifts, increasing enzyme activities by 60%, potentially accelerating carbon turnover. This weakens the peatland carbon sink, emphasizing the need to safeguard diversity.
