Optical Stimulation and Monitoring of the Peripheral Nervous System: Perspectives and Challenges Toward Clinical Translation

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Optical neuromodulation with IR light allows stimulation of the PNS without the need for physical contact with the target nerve or without requiring any genetic modification. The clinical translation of this technique will pave the way to the development of neural interfaces for restoring sensory feedback in individuals with limb amputation.

An Adaptive Metasurface for Adjustable Magnetic Resonance Imaging Enhancement at 3 T and 7 T: A Feasibility Study

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Ultra‐high field (≥ 7 T) and 3 T MRI suffer from B1+ inhomogeneity and signal loss. Conventional metasurfaces that mitigate B1+ inhomogeneity and improve image SNR are “fixed” in nature and designed for a single Larmor frequency. This study demonstrates the feasibility of an adaptive metasurface utilizing voltage‐controlled capacitors ...

Design and Multibody Dynamics Modeling of a Novel High‐Static‐Low‐Dynamic‐Stiffness Vibration Isolation Mechanism Based on Euler Buckling Characteristics

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vibration isolation has long been a critical area of research, with the design of isolators based on the mechanical properties of Euler buckling beams representing one of the primary approaches. Traditionally, the focus has been on utilizing the negative stiffness characteristics of a post‐buckled Euler beam in parallel with positive stiffness

Social cohesion in restoration landscapes: The case of Rwanda

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecosystem restoration is recognized as a strategy for addressing landscape degradation. In contexts where ecological degradation overlaps with the deterioration of social cohesion, restoration must also contribute to rebuilding social ties alongside restoring ecosystems.

Molecular Basis for Uracil‐DNA‐Glycosylase to Identify DNA Damage in the Nucleosome

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The DNA base‐excision repair (BER) pathway is initiated by a glycosylase, such as uracil‐DNA‐glycosylase (UDG), which identifies and removes a wrong base incorporated in the DNA sequence. The very early steps in the identification of the DNA damage are crucial to the correct initiation of the repair chain, and become even more complex when ...

Stair‐Climbing Wheelchairs for Enhanced Mobility: A Comprehensive Review of Fundamental Mechanisms, Design Concepts, and Performance Analysis

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT People with physical disabilities face significant mobility challenges while climbing uneven surfaces and staircases. In these circumstances, traditional wheelchairs do not provide stable, safely controlled mobility, underscoring the importance of building superior stair‐climbing wheelchairs for both medical and infrastructure purposes.
