Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy

Microelectrode array scaled for human hippocampal slices

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is characterized by recurrent seizures originating usually from the hippocampus, and approximately one‐third of TLE patients remain refractory to pharmacological interventions. Surgical resection offers a potential cure for refractory TLE cases, with approximately 70% achieving seizure freedom. Still, the

Perovskite‐based time‐domain signal‐balancing LiDAR sensor with centimeter depth resolution

InfoMat, EarlyView.
In this study, we present a monolithic high‐speed perovskite‐based photodetector capable of directly sensing the time delay between two light pulses with a temporal resolution of at least 170 ps. This outstanding time resolution is achieved through a signal‐balancing detection scheme that effectively overcomes the limitations of conventional ...
