Multi‐Walled Carbon Nanotube Reinforced Polyacrylamide‐Acrylic Acid Nanocomposite Hydrogels With Superior Mechanical and Tribological Performance as Focal Cartilage Substitute

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Though mimicking cartilage's structure, hydrogels often present weak mechanical performance, which limits their use in cartilage repair. Here, nanocomposite hydrogel was synthesized by incorporating multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) into a covalently bonded polyacrylamide/polyacrylic acid (PAAm/PAAc) hydrogel. Fourier transform infrared and

The Contribution of Phonemic Awareness and Executive Functions to Reading Skills of Italian Pupils

Psychology in the Schools, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Phonemic awareness (PA) refers to the ability to reflect on and manipulate phonemes. The development of the ability to become aware of and conduct mental operations on phonemes might involve higher‐order cognitive processes, such as executive functions (EFs), which help modulate attention to goal‐relevant information and support behavioral ...

Planting and replanting: Continuity and change over four decades of forest restoration in Himachal Pradesh, India

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
India has a long history of planting trees to restore ecosystem services providing an opportunity to evaluate long‐term ecosystem restoration processes. We show that these programs have shifted over time in response to public demands as well as through changes in the government's vision for forests.

Integrating target capture with whole genome sequencing of recent and natural history collections to explain the phylogeography of wild‐growing and cultivated cannabis

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Cannabis has been used by humans for millennia, resulting in diverse landraces and uses. Its complex legal status and economic importance make sampling wild‐growing populations difficult, limiting past studies to modern cultivars with low genetic diversity. Our research provides crucial insights into the genetic diversity of wild‐growing and cultivated
