Multirobot Aerial Soft Manipulator for Floating Litter Collection

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A multirobot aerial manipulator enables autonomous floating litter collection by controlling the shape of a flexible rope equipped with a hook‐based tool. Adaptive rope‐shape planning enhances grasping performance while reducing tension, demonstrating the potential of aerial robots for floating litter removal. Removing floating litter from water bodies

At the edge of change: Native Phragmites persistence and nonnative arrival along the dam‐regulated Colorado River

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The southwestern United States is at the forefront of nonnative Phragmites australis subsp. australis expansion. Native Phragmites australis subsp. americanus, likely in decline in North America, is ecologically and culturally important and of conservation interest. In the greater Grand Canyon region, the Glen Canyon Dam led to loss of

Giovanni Antonio Scopoli's De Hydrargyro Idriensi Tentamina (1761): Mercury Mining, Mercurialism, and Preventive Reasoning in Eighteenth‐Century Occupational Medicine

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Giovanni Antonio Scopoli (1723–1788), a physician‐naturalist of the Enlightenment, is primarily remembered for his contributions to botany and entomology. Less attention has been paid to his medical work De hydrargyro Idriensi Tentamina physico‐chymico‐medica (1761), written during his fifteen years of service as physician at the mercury mines

On the Prospects for African Philosophy in Australia

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper grapples with the situation of people of African descent in Australia by working through the constitution of the body of academic philosophy in the country. It contends with the parochialism of the Australian philosophical community and the prospects for the cultivation of greater pluralism. Taking African philosophy as one possible

Diversity‐Oriented Two‐Step Annulative π‐Extension Enables Access to Structurally Complex Nanographenes

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Pd‐catalyzed C–H arylation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with various aryltrimethylsilanes enables the preparation of structurally complicated arylated PAHs, which can be further transformed to nanographenes in a manner of two‐step annulative π‐extension (APEX) reaction.

Baseline podocyte‐associated state and persistent cell–matrix transcriptional programs are associated with BALB/c substrain differences in adriamycin nephropathy

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Two closely related BALB/c substrains exhibit different early responses to adriamycin (ADR)‐induced nephropathy. BALB/cByJcl mice showed lower baseline WT1‐positive nuclei counts and NPHS1 immunoreactivity than BALB/cAJcl mice, together with extracellular matrix and integrin programs that were enriched at baseline and persisted at Day 5.

Zebrafish xenograft models as a fast platform for metastasis diagnosis and cisplatin response of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
A zebrafish xenograft model accurately distinguishes metastatic from non‐metastatic HNSCC and recapitulates cisplatin sensitivity/resistance patterns. Using patient‐derived tumors, it predicts individual therapeutic responses, offering a rapid, clinically applicable platform for guiding personalized treatment. Abstract Background Head and neck squamous

Enhancement of Dissymmetry Factors Through Axial Elongation of Hetero[n]helicenes

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A benzofuran scaffolding strategy enables the synthesis of hetero[9]‐, [12]‐, and [15]helicenes. Structural and chiroptical analyses demonstrate that systematic axial elongation increases helical distortion and significantly amplifies luminescence dissymmetry.
