Current technologies for spinal cord optogenetic stimulation rely on external power sources and face reliability constraints in freely behaving animals. Here, a fully implantable, battery‐powered optoelectronic device is introduced, enabling operation in any selected environment with wireless recharging for months‐long stimulation.

Global and local synthetic descriptions of the piano soundboard
Up to around 1.1 kHz, the soundboard of the piano behaves like a homogeneous plate whereas upper in frequency, it can be described as a set of waveguides defined by the ribs.

Floral meristem (FM) activity is crucial for the initiation of floral organs. In this study, SE represses IPT7 expression and cytokinin signaling via both the miR171c‐5p–KNAT2 and miR164c–CUC1/2–KNAT2 regulatory modules, thereby repressing FM activity. In contrast, STM induces both KNAT2 and IPT7 expression.

Enhancing Electrical Impedance Based Deformation Sensing with Dielectric Current Guide
This work introduces a dielectric‐based field manipulation strategy for electrical impedance tomography in soft robotics. By using silicone as a passive electric field guide, improved deformation sensing accuracy and reduced interference are achieved without embedding conductive components.

Livestock Tango: U.S. and Latin America Dance Together, but Who Will Lead?
ABSTRACT This study examines the competitiveness between Latin American and U.S. livestock and meat sectors. We employ a computable general equilibrium modeling framework to evaluate two scenarios: coordinated improvements in Latin American productivity, transport efficiency, and market access (Scenario I), and the minimum productivity gains required ...
