The Interplay of Curvature, Geometry, and Topology Shapes Tissue Organisation in Epithelial Shells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Purely geometric 3D Voronoi models predict the organisation of epithelial shells. The interplay of curvature, geometry, and topology enriches the number of pentagons in shells with lower number of cells. Small MDCK cysts and Mouse embryos match the top polygonal configurations in a compactness‐based ranking derived from the Voronoi model. In conclusion,

MXene‐Based Room‐Temperature NO2 Gas Sensors: A Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents the first comprehensive meta‐analysis of MXene‐based NO2 sensors, decoding 32 study characteristics across 61 peer‐reviewed studies. By isolating materials chemistry as the primary performance driver over device‐level parameters, the authors establish a methodological blueprint and a predictive structure–function map to accelerate ...

Diderot’s Vital Materialism

Ambix
In what follows I examine Diderot's chemically influenced vital materialism. Once condemned as "mechanistic," materialism has had something of a renaissance in recent decades as scholars have rediscovered a tradition of "vital materialism" which they have opposed to older, cruder forms of the idea, e.g. materialisms full of life, affect, chimiatry, and

Vital Materialism and the Thing-Power of Lively Digital Data

2020
In this chapter, I take up the vital materialism perspective, particularly as it is used in political theorist Jane Bennett’s scholarship, to discuss the entanglements of digital data with humans and the work of sense-making. I emphasise the importance of understanding how digital data about human bodies work to generate new knowledges and the ...

Microbial accumulation and vitality on different restorative materials

Dental Materials, 1993
A new technique using standardized test facings was designed to evaluate interdental plaque accumulation on different restoration materials. In 10 volunteers, a total of 40 samples, including enamel, two different ceramics and a bonding composite, were inserted one by one into a precision attachment in an experimental inlay bordering on either the ...

Materials Development: A Vital Decision

The Language Teacher
The COVID-19 pandemic transformed education, highlighting the necessity for varied teaching and learning methods. With the return to in-person classes complemented by online formats, selecting appropriate teaching materials and syllabuses has become more complex. This paper discusses the development and adaptation of teaching materials, the reliability
