A Scalable Method for Cavity‐Enhanced Solid‐State Quantum Sensors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Photoluminescent color centres in diamond and hexagon boron nitride are powerful nanoscale solid‐state quantum sensors. Methods for integrating them into macroscopic structures that improve their sensitivity are highly sought after. This study demonstrates a low‐cost and scalable method for the fabrication of quantum sensor‐doped thin‐film cavities ...

DLP 4D Printing of Programmable Molecularly‐Engineered Liquid Crystal Elastomer Actuators

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We introduce an original and versatile approach for printing liquid crystal elastomers that exhibit reversible shape morphing using digital light processing. 3D‐tructures are printed in a partially cured state, mechanically programmed, and then fully crosslinked to fix molecular alignment.

Data‐Driven Feedback Identifies Focused Ultrasound Exposure Regimens for Improved Nanotheranostic Targeting of the Brain

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Machine learning models predict in real time the onset of harmful microbubble collapse during microbubble‐enhanced focused ultrasound (MB‐FUS) and enable dynamic adjustment of sonication to prevent cavitation‐induced damage. This predictive control expands the safe operating window for bloodbrain barrier opening, enhancing nanoparticle delivery and ...

Rib‐Reinforced Ultralight and Ultra‐Strong Shell Lattices

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study thoroughly reveals the relation between the curvature and stress direction of triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) thin shell lattices and proposes a novel rib reinforcement design strategy to incorporate ribs along the line of asymptotes (LOA) and the line of principal curvatures (LOC) to enhance the strength of ultralight TPMS shell ...

Science and prizes

EMBO Reports
Scientific prizes award those making important discoveries, define a field, further the public understanding of science, or support young and upcoming researchers. But they should also encourage scientists to take risks and venture into the unknown.

Higher‐Level Structural Classification of Pseudomonas Cyclic Lipopeptides through Their Bioactive Conformation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Solution structures of a series of cyclic lipodepsipeptides from Pseudomonas reveal that these specialized metabolites adopt left‐handed alpha helical conformations of only two types, being either ‘stapled’ or ‘catch‐pole’ helix. The particular modular distribution of the biosynthetic gene clusters is found to determine the extent of their conserved ...

A Murine Database of Structural Variants Identifies A Candidate Gene for a Spontaneous Murine Lymphoma Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We analyzed long‐read genomic sequencing data obtained from 40 inbred mouse strains to produce a large database of structural variants. This dataset captures the major types of structural variants, which includes deletions, insertions, duplications, and inversions.

Transition Metal Compounds for Aqueous Ammonium‐Ion Batteries: Storage Mechanisms and Electrode Design

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Aqueous ammonium‐ion batteries leverage hydrogen‐bond‐mediated NH4+ storage in tunable transition metal compounds. Despite progress in Mn‐, V‐, Mo‐, and W‐based compounds, 2D LDHs, and MXenes, challenges like structural instability and slow kinetics persist. Future advances require robust host design, mechanistic understanding via operando studies, and

Non‐Uniform Space‐Time‐Coding Modulation for Low‐Complexity Diagnostics of Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A diagnostic method for reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) based on non‐uniform space‐time‐coding modulation is presented. Fault localization is achieved via amplitude‐only spectral measurements, eliminating the need for complex signal processing. A one‐to‐one mapping between harmonic components and RIS elements enables accurate detection.

Constructing an inclusive speech community from two mutually excluding ones: The third Afrikaans language movement

Tydskrif vir Letterkunde, 2017
The article deals with the aim of leaders in the Afrikaans community to maintain Afrikaans as a language of high-function formal contexts in post-1994 South Africa through the construction of a community which meaningfully includes all its speakers as ...
