Electrical stimulation of human pluripotent stem cell‐derived cardiomyocytes is systematically investigated as a function of electrode material and configuration. Stimulation efficiency is found to be governed predominantly by electrode geometry, with increased electrode area and proximity to cells enabling more effective pacing.

Tracing the evolutionary history of the morpho‐anatomy of baculum in primates
Abstract Animal morphology reflects both evolutionary history and present‐day adaptation. Male mammal copulatory structures such as the baculum (penile bone) are ideal for studying these processes because of their complexity and high interspecific variability. In primates, however, research has focused mostly on baculum length.
