Spin‐Crossover Confinement in Mesoporous Matrices Enables Tunable Porosity for Molecular Sensing
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.The integration of hierarchically organized porous frameworks with spin‐crossover nanodomains enables cooperative interactions across multiple length scales. This hybrid design merges dynamic molecular switching with tunable porosity, yielding materials whose structural and functional responses are actively modulated by confinement and guest uptake ...

Anti‐Slip Material‐Based Strategies and Approaches
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This review highlights the principle mechanisms of slipping at the microscale, linking contact mechanics with a friction behavior model for surface interfaces. Main strategies to develop anti‐slip properties to the surfaces are discussed alongside standardized testing approaches.

Micropillar‐Engineered Hybrid Adhesive Patch for Surface‐Conformable and Directional Adhesion
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This work presents a surface‐conformable hybrid adhesive integrating height‐optimized hexagonal micropillars with open‐rectangular cuts. The micropillars enhance rough‐surface contact and microscale crack arrest, while the cuts guide and reverse interfacial cracks for strong and directional adhesion. The multiscale architecture achieves robust pull‐off

Diversity in olfactory bulb size in birds reflects allometry, ecology and phylogeny
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2015 The relative size of olfactory bulbs is correlated with olfactory capabilities across vertebrates and is widely used to assess the relative importance of olfaction to a species’ ecology.

The role of two anatomically separate olfactory bulbs in shark food odor tracking [PDF]
, 2017 Most sharks have well-developed olfactory systems and depend to a large degree on odor information to locate food, home and navigate, and possibly detect predators and mates.
