Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.In this article, Hojin Kim, Sayan Deb Dutta, and co‐workers report a shape‐reconfigurable, 3D printable, and highly adhesive slime‐like ‘electronic skin’ or ‘E‐skin’ patch for human health sensing and tissue engineering applications. The dual reinforcement of hydrogel patch with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) improve the ...

Australasian Journal of Philosophy, 2012 This paper addresses the nature of touch or tactual perception. I argue that touch encompasses a wide range of perceptual achievements, that treating it as a number of separate senses will not work, and that the permissive conception we are left with is so permissive that it is unclear how touch might be distinguished from the other senses.

Substrate Engineering for Durable Omniphobic Liquid‐Like Surfaces
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The significant yet less investigated role of substrates in determining the liquid‐repellency and mechanical durability of liquid‐like surfaces (LLSs) is explored. Thick and crack‐free sol–gel silica intermediary layers are developed that can smoothen substrate asperity roughness even at the micron scale, enabling omniphobic polydimethylsiloxane‐based ...

Double Helical Plasmonic Antennas
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Plasmonic double helical antennas funnel circularly polarized light to the nanoscale, offering strong chiroptical interaction and directional light emission. Extending a single helix design tool, this study combines numerical modeling with experimental validation, revealing large, broadband dissymmetry factors in the visible range.

Liquid Crystalline Networks Hamper the Malignancy of Cancer Cells
Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 7, March 14, 2025.Liquid Crystalline Networks are used as scaffolds for the growth of A375 melanoma cells demonstrating to affect their malignancy. Indeed, only by contact, these materials reduces cell proliferation and colony formation capacity, while increasing the number of senescent cells and promoting the mesenchymal to epithelial transition.

Touching Without Touching: Objects of Post-Deconstructive Realism and Object-Oriented Ontology
Open Philosophy, 2018 This paper presents a juxtaposition of the understanding of objects in Jean-Luc Nancy’s postdeconstructive realism and Graham Harman’s object-oriented ontology, particularly with reference to their respective notions of touch.

Science-Business eXchange, 2009 UCSF researchers have identified a new target for neuropathic pain—a glutamate transporter called VGLUT3. The key will be to selectively block VGLUT3 and avoid the off-target activity associated with broadly inhibiting glutamate signaling.

Effect of Nanoparticle Rigidity on the Interaction of Stromal Membrane Particles with Leukemia Cells
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Cell membrane nanoparticles made with stromal cells are prepared and used to target leukemia cells. Deposition of the cell membrane onto rigid silica cores leads to increased uptake both in leukemia cell lines and primary cells from patients. These results show that nanoparticle rigidity affects the interaction between cell membrane nanoparticles and ...
