Hydroxyapatite–Mesoporous Silica Composites for Dual Quercetin Release and Encapsulation Efficiency
International Journal of Applied Ceramic Technology, Volume 23, Issue 4, August 2026.This study demonstrates that HAP/Si hybrid composites are promising carriers for quercetin delivery, offering high drug encapsulation and tunable pH‐dependent release behavior. Structural characterization confirmed successful composite formation, while release modeling indicated that diffusion and matrix erosion jointly controlled quercetin release ...

Textured Piezoelectric Ceramics Printed With Baffled Nozzles
Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 8, August 2026.To better align platelet particles in additively manufactured textured ceramics, baffled nozzles were simulated and tested. The simulation included a novel CFD heuristic that considers the entire print path. Printed parts were characterized via microscopy, X‐ray diffraction, and electromechanically and results were compared to the simulation, finding ...

Does the Threat of Killing Gays Deter Foreign Aid: The Case of Uganda's 2014 Anti‐Homosexuality Act
Review of Development Economics, Volume 30, Issue 3, Page 2083-2097, August 2026.ABSTRACT Much attention has been drawn on Uganda in recent years due to the strengthening of its anti‐LGBTQ legislation and rhetoric. Our study explores the aid‐deterring effect of anti‐LGBTQ legislation in an experimental setting using the Synthetic Control Method.
