Cathode Electrolyte Interphase Engineering by Quaternized Chitosan for Stabilized Li–SPAN Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this work, quaternized chitosan (QCS) is reported as an additive optimizing the sulfurized polyacrylonitrile (SPAN) cathode/electrolyte interphase (CEI). Its high positive charge density adsorbs PF6− anions, enriching the Helmholtz layer with aggregates. This promotes rapid anion desolvation, forming an anion‐derived CEI enriched in LiF.

Pan2‐Pan3 Complex‐Mediated Deadenylation Enforces mRNA Quality Control for Infection of the Rice Blast Fungus

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Discovery that deadenylation, rather than transcription, acts as the rate‐limiting step for developmental timing in a plant pathogen. Evidence that P‐body integrity and mRNA decay are mechanistically coupled to rapid cellular differentiation under environmental stress. Identification of Pan2‐Pan3 as a pathogen‐specific “meta‐virulence factor” absent in

Smart Cities in a Smart World

open access: yes, 2015
Very often the concept of smart city is strongly related to the flourishing of mobile applications, stressing the technological aspects and a top-down approach of high-tech centralized control systems capable of resolving all the urban issues, completely forgetting the essence of a city with its connected problems.
