Versatile Direct (Hetero)Arylation Polymerization of Electro-Deficient Unsubstituted Thiazolo[5,4-d]Thiazole: A Tool to Lower the LUMO Level. [PDF]
An unsubstituted thiazolo[5,4‐d]thiazole (TzTz) unit is used to synthesize a series of novel semiconducting polymers via eco‐friendly direct arylation polymerization. These TzTz‐based copolymers, with various electron‐withdrawing comonomers, display optical bandgaps of 1.5–2.0 eV and strong thermal stability.

Impact of intracellular radionuclide distribution in a Monte Carlo biophysical 3D multi-cellular model for targeted alpha therapy. [PDF]
Abstract Background To understand and predict the therapeutic efficacy of targeted alpha therapy (TAT), nano‐ and microdosimetry are needed to consider the very heterogeneous dose deposition at cellular and subcellular levels. Purpose The objective of this study is to theoretically evaluate the importance of cell internalization of alpha‐emitters on ...

Disrupting ‘a man's world’: gender, technology, and class in Vietnam's global heavy industry
Abstract Only rarely is Vietnam's global heavy industry studied from an anthropological perspective in either its gender or its class dimensions. This article contributes new insights into the ways in which the interagential dynamics of gender and technology from shopfloor to engineer offices coproduce social orders in contesting and perpetuating ...

The effect of insects on elephant‐induced tree damage within a small, fenced reserve in South Africa
Abstract African savanna elephants (Loxodonta africana) have been recognised as ecosystem engineers, where their feeding habits have been shown to alter landscapes. Within small, fenced reserves, studies exploring elephant damage on trees and their recovery have overlooked secondary damages that could be contributing to tree mortality.
