Evidence for Drop‐Like Nuclear Deformation in Sheared Endothelial Monolayers

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Physiological shear stress smoothens endothelial monolayers by selectively eliminating less‐spread cells with tall, wrinkled nuclei. Nuclear volume and surface area remain constant, consistent with drop‐like deformation governed by geometric constraints.

Step‐Ladder Bioprinting to Align Collagen Fibers for Anisotropic Tissue Fabrication

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
The step‐ladder printing platform includes successive segments of channels with varying widths in a custom barrel design. This design allows for improved anisotropy of collagen fibers during extrusion. To demonstrate its effectiveness, corneal constructs with high transparency and shape fidelity, as well as articular cartilage constructs, displaying ...

Kinship through code, personhood as node: AI afterlives and new technologies of the self Parenté par le code, personne nodale : vie posthume dans l'IA et nouvelles technologies du moi

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This article examines how emerging generative AI technologies in Europe and North America are being used to reanimate the dead, prompting users to define the ‘edges’ of self and personhood through coding practices. These technologies invite new engagements with fundamental questions of relatedness and the construction of the self, challenging and ...

How to Imagine Educational AI: The Filling of a Pail or the Lighting of a Fire?

open access: yesEducational Theory, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advances in artificial intelligence (e.g., machine learning, generative AI) have led to increased interest in its application in educational settings. AI companies hope to revolutionize teaching and learning by tailoring material to the individual needs of students, automating parts of teachers' jobs, or analyzing educational data to ...

On Schopenhauer's Debt to Spinoza1

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract Schopenhauer offers ‘nature is not divine but demonic’ as a direct rebuttal of Spinoza's pantheism, his identification of ‘nature’ with ‘God’. And so, one would think, he ought to have been immune to the ‘Spinozism’ that became, as Heine called it, ‘the unofficial religion’ of the age.

Structural analysis of the NifL‐NifA complex reveals the molecular basis of anti‐activation of nitrogen fixation gene expression in Azotobacter vinelandii

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Using cryo‐EM combined with biochemical and genetic approaches, we mapped the interaction surface between NifL and NifA to gain insights into the regulation of nitrogen fixation genes in A. vinelandii. Our findings suggest that NifL, a homolog of histidine kinases lacking phosphorylation activity, evolved to act as a steric block of NifA activity ...

Functional divergence of protein kinase A regulatory subunit Iβ variants: the importance of N3A motifs in PKA regulation

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The regulatory subunit RIβ of protein kinase A occurs in two variants that differ at residue 268 (A268 versus R268). This seemingly small substitution significantly changes cAMP sensitivity, basal kinase activity, and the dynamic behavior of the regulatory domains.

‘QUOD NON EST IN BEROLINA, NON EST IN MUNDO’: VIEWS FROM THE PERIPHERY

open access: yesGerman Life and Letters, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The historiography of Weimar cinema has focused almost exclusively on film production and exhibition in the German capital Berlin, generally neglecting other geographic regions, in particular the Rhineland which, after the First World War, remained under Allied control until the mid‐1920s for some parts, for others even longer.
