Ground‐based robotic remote sensing for standardized biodiversity monitoring in coastal habitats

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Illustrated workflow of the proposed citizen‐to‐robot monitoring pipeline: (i) expert‐validated citizen observations are translated into AI models, (ii) deployed on a ground‐based robotic platform for proximal sensing of coastal dune habitats, (iii) enabling standardized detection of ecological targets (e.g., Pancratium maritimum & Brithys crini), and (

Stakeholder Governance of the Energy‐Biodiversity Nexus in the Renewable Energy Sector: Pathways to Achieve SDGs in the MENA Region

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This systematic review examines stakeholder roles in managing biodiversity within renewable‐energy projects across the MENA region, a highly climate‐vulnerable region yet pursuing rapid energy transition toward achieving SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy). The focus is on regulatory bodies and sector companies as primary actors.

A Compact Annular Electrostatic Clutch Joint: Dynamic Response Modeling and Time‐Sharing Control for Underactuated Robots

SmartBot, EarlyView.
Electrostatic clutches offer programmable variable stiffness for multi‐DOF robots, but their continuous motion is usually bottlenecked by spatial constraints and detachment delays. Here, the authors report a compact annular electrostatic clutch joint with a biphasic amplitude‐frequency modulation strategy to rapidly mitigate residual polarization ...

Oppositely Charged Homopolypeptides Form Ordered Helix Assemblies With Hierarchical Structure

Small, EarlyView.
Hexagaonal and square assembly of polyarginine alfa‐helices formed in highly ordered polyarginine/polyaspartic acid complexes. The helices exhibit additional periodic staggering along their helical axis. ABSTRACT Oppositely charged polyelectrolytes are known to form polyelectrolyte complexes.

Engineering Carbon Nanotube Quantum Well Defects With Recognition Tripeptides for Optical Detection of Extracellular Vesicles in Plasma

Small, EarlyView.
A three‐residue peptide bioconjugated onto a carbon nanotube quantum defect turns the near‐infrared emission of quantum defects into a reporter of integrins on intact extracellular vesicles, directly in human plasma. The sensor reveals that healthy fibroblast vesicles carry as much RGD‐binding integrin as cancer‐derived ones, an adhesion‐associated ...

Differential segment‐specific signalling pathways for guanylate cyclase C‐activated anion secretion in murine ileocolon

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Guanylate cyclase‐C (GC‐C) is the receptor for endogenous (uro)guanylin peptides, bacterial toxins and pharmacological analogues. Receptor activation leads to intestinal fluid loss, but also activates an antiproliferative pathway and is a promising target in colorectal cancer therapy.

Platelet concentrates in sinus augmentation: The impact of platelet dose and biological characteristics—A systematic review and meta‐analysis

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This systematic review investigated the osteogenic effects of platelet concentrate (PRF/PRP) when combined with non‐autogenous graft materials in sinus lift procedures. Key characteristics assessed included platelet concentration, total platelet dose, leukocyte content, and fibrin‐network structure.

Three‐dimensional three‐interval thixotropy test (3D‐3ITT) protocol for cosmetic lotions: A proof‐of‐concept study linking thixotropy to sensory and emotional responses

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
From rheology to emotion: 3D‐3ITT converts usage‐like shear histories into recovery maps and thixotropy index, TI3D. In a blinded half‐face study (N = 30), the higher‐ TI3D serum (S1s) improved absorption/clean feel and increased Relax and Comfort while lowering Anxiety relative to S2s.

Understanding extracellular vesicle biology, isolation, and characterization: The theory of EV‐erything

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Extracellular vesicles (EVs), especially exosomes, are nanoparticles increasingly recognized as key regulators of intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological aspects. Despite rapid progress, inconsistencies in nomenclature, isolation, and characterization continue to restrict translational advancement.
