Modular, Textile‐Based Soft Robotic Grippers for Agricultural Produce Handling

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article introduces textile‐based pneumatic grippers that transform simple textiles into robust bending actuators. Detailed experiments uncover how cut geometry and fabric selection shape performance. Successful handling of fragile agricultural items showcases the potential of textile robotics for safe, scalable automation in food processing and ...

Cold Orthogonal Translation: A Psychrophilic Pyrrolysyl‐tRNA Synthetase Boosts Genetic Code Expansion in E. coli

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Orthogonal translation systems (OTSs) enable site‐specific incorporation of non‐canonical amino acids (ncAAs) and are central to genetic code expansion. Current engineering strategies typically rely on hyperstable aminoacyl tRNA synthetase (aaRS) scaffolds to tolerate destabilizing mutations required for substrate diversification.

Sectarianism in Scotland: A ‘West of Scotland’ Problem, a Patchwork or a Cobweb? [PDF]

Scottish Affairs, 2015
Drawing on research carried out for the Scottish Government in 2014, this article explores how people experience sectarianism in Scotland today. For some, sectarianism is manifestly part of their everyday experience, but for others it is almost invisible in their social world. The article sets out a metaphor of sectarianism experienced like a cobweb in

A Perspective on the Applications of Triphasic Gas Storage in Electrochemical Systems

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Gas storage in microporous materials positioned locally at an electrode or electrocatalyst surface enhances electrochemical processes. Abstract Microporous materials store gases under dry conditions (e.g., hydrogen or oxygen via physisorption), but in some cases microporous materials also show triphasic (e.g., in a solid|gas|liquid system) gas storage ...

Cobalt Single‐Atom Catalysts for Ultrafast Sulfamethoxazole Degradation: Unveiling the Chloride‐Ion‐Enhanced Formation of Co(IV)=O

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An atomically dispersed Co–N4 single‐atom catalyst rapidly activates peroxymonosulfate to remove the antibiotic sulfamethoxazole from water. Common ions have little impact, but chloride dramatically speeds degradation by promoting a high‐valent Co(IV) = O oxidant via in situ HOCl–catalyst electron transfer.

Printed Flexible WO3‐Based Supercapacitors for Powering Low‐Powered Electronics in Wearable Devices and Energy Autonomous Temperature Monitoring

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
This study represents one of the systematic demonstrations of a screen‐printed, flexible WO3‐based supercapacitor, exhibiting excellent charge‐storage performance for powering wearable electronics. The device shows a specific capacitance of 3.44 F g−1 and an energy density of 0.302 Wh kg−1 at 0.05 mA, which enable to operate multiple wearable ...

Morbidity Among the Aging Population in Northern Bangladesh: An Epidemiological Study

AGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
Multimorbidity (≥ 2 chronic diseases) is common among aging populations, yet evidence from Bangladesh remains limited. A cross‐sectional survey of 540 older adults in Northern Bangladesh (June–August 2022) assessed multimorbidity using interviews and logistic regression analysis. Multimorbidity prevalence was 75.74% (95% CI: 71.9%–79.3%).

The Insistence of Blackness and the Persistence of Antiblackness in Ireland

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper positions Ireland as a critical site for examining the insistence of blackness and an antiblackness created and sustained through Irish ethnonationalist imaginaries and exclusionary processes. Drawing on connected sociologies and Irish Black Studies, this enquiry argues that antiblackness in Ireland operates as a generational force,

Caregiver Reports on the Needs and Experiences of Children Impacted by Parental Incarceration: Results From an Australian Survey

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Children experiencing parental imprisonment are known to be among the most overlooked in our community. They often experience multiple and compounding disadvantages, with long‐term consequences, but receive no specialised assistance. Knowledge about these children and their families is lacking in Australia and is required to inform policy ...

Public Attitudes Toward Compassionate Release of Older People From Prison: Findings From a National Survey in Australia

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rapid increase in older people in prison populations worldwide is generating significant health, cost, and human rights pressures on custodial systems. Compassionate release for older, frail inmates is a potentially effective response, yet little is known about public support for this approach.
