Social distancing and epidemic resurgence in agent-based susceptible-infectious-recovered models
Once an epidemic outbreak has been effectively contained through non-pharmaceutical interventions, a safe protocol is required for the subsequent release of social distancing restrictions to prevent a disastrous resurgence of the infection.

Nonadditivity of critical Casimir forces
The critical Casimir force, rising from fluctuating field confined between surfaces, is predicted to be nonadditive, but there is no experimental verification to date.

Knots in soft condensed matter [PDF]
Understanding the mechanism by which a polypeptide chain thread itself spontaneously to attain a knotted conformation has been a major challenge in the field of protein folding. HP0242 is a homodimeric protein from Helicobacter pylori with intertwined helices to form a unique pseudo-knotted folding topology.

Perspectives on opportunities in experimental soft-matter science [PDF]
Soft materials consist of basic units that are significantly larger than an atom but much smaller than the overall dimensions of the sample. The label "soft condensed matter" emphasizes that the large basic building blocks of these materials produce low elastic moduli that govern a material's ability to withstand deformations.

Hydrogels: soft matters in photomedicine
Photodynamic therapy (PDT), a shining beacon in the realm of photomedicine, is a non-invasive technique that utilizes dye-based photosensitizers (PSs) in conjunction with light and oxygen to produce reactive oxygen species to combat malignant tissues and infectious microorganisms.

Cell‐free DNA aneuploidy score as a dynamic early response marker in prostate cancer
mFast‐SeqS‐based genome‐wide aneuploidy scores are concordant with aneuploidy scores obtained by whole genome sequencing from tumor tissue and can predict response to ARSI treatment at baseline and, at an early time point, to ARSI and taxanes. This assay can be easily performed at low cost and requires little input of cfDNA. Cell‐free circulating tumor

Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) and neutron reflection (NR) have become invaluable to many scientists in the soft matter community as methods of obtaining system information such as size, structure and particle interactions on the nanometer scale which cannot be achieved using other techniques. Neutron scattering is employed to study a wide range

On the improved electrochemistry of hybrid conducting-redox polymer electrodes
The electrochemistry of poly(2,5-dihydroxyaniline) (PDHA), a novel hybrid molecular configuration with redox active sites and electrical charge conduction along the polymer chain, has been recently reported.
