Resettlement’s Renaissance: A Cautionary Advocacy

Refuge, 2007
Arising out of UNHCR’s Global Consultations was a renewed emphasis on the role of resettlement as a protection tool, durable solution, and burden-sharing mechanism. Resettlement is a useful instrument for all three reasons enumerated by UNHCR.

ECM‐Stiffness Mediated Persistent Fibroblast Activation Requires Integrin and Formin Dependent Chromatin Remodeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Prolonged exposure to stiff extracellular matrix drives cancer‐associated fibroblasts into a persistently activated myofibroblast state. Two parallel pathways are identified: β1 integrin activation smoothens the nuclear lamina to reduce lamin–chromatin contacts, while the formin mDia2 regulates nuclear actin to alter chromatin organization.

Climate Action Impacts on Steelmaking Emissions of Persistent Organic Pollutants Highlight a Gap Between the Paris Agreement and the Stockholm Convention

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Emissions of unintentionally produced persistent organic pollutants (UPOPs) and global warming are two major environmental challenges. But their governance has largely evolved in parallel, leaving the toxicity implications of climate‐driven industrial transitions poorly understood.

Study on the Identification, Failure Mode, and Spatial Distribution of Bank Collapses after the Initial Impoundment in the Head Section of Baihetan Reservoir in Jinsha River, China

Remote Sensing
After the initial impoundment of the Baihetan Reservoir in April 2021, the water level in front of the dam rose about 200 m. The mechanical properties and effects of the bank slopes in the reservoir area changed significantly, resulting in many bank ...

Persistently Increased Expression of PKMzeta and Unbiased Gene Expression Profiles Identify Hippocampal Molecular Traces of a Long‐Term Active Place Avoidance Memory and “Shadow” Proteins

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Protein complexes like KIBRA‐PKMζ are crucial for maintaining memories, forming month‐long protein traces in memory‐tagged neurons, but conventional RNA‐seq analysis fails to detect their transcript changes, leaving memory molecules undetected in the shadows of abundantly‐expressed genes.

Reconfigurable, Temperature Resilient Phase‐Change Metasurfaces Fabricated via High Throughput Nanoimprinting Lithography

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The combination of metasurfaces with chalcogenide phase‐change materials is a highly promising route toward the development of multifunctional and reconfigurable nanophotonic devices. However, their transition into real‐world devices is hindered by several technological challenges. This includes, amongst others, the lack of large area photonic

Resettlement

Forced Migration Review, 2007
Both a durable solution and an instrument of protection, resettlement is available to only a tiny fraction of the world’s refugees. UNHCR has launched a large-scale resettlement programme for Iraqi refugees but places are limited and it is the degree of ‘vulnerability’ that will ultimately determine prospects for resettlement.
