Chemical Switching Between B2N and B2C Homoaromaticity

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We report the synthesis of homoaromatic 1‐aza‐2,4‐diazadiboretane with a bicyclic four‐membered NB2C motif and demonstrate experimentally and theoretically that the homoaromatic delocalization can also be chemically shifted from the B2N to the B2C moiety by deprotonation of the ring carbon atom.

Combining work and vacation: workation as an attractive work arrangement

Personnel Review
Purpose The fulfilling blend of work and leisure experienced by digital nomads has inspired some organizations to offer “workation” (work-vacation) as a new fringe benefit, allowing employees to work remotely from international locations while simultaneously engaging in travel and leisure activities.

Australia's Migration Strategy: An Effective Response to Migrant Worker Exploitation?

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A series of publicised migrant worker injuries and deaths has drawn attention to the issue of migrant worker exploitation (MWE) in Australia. In response, the Australian Government has included ‘Tackling Worker Exploitation’ as a key area of its Migration Strategy which it introduced in 2023. However, it is unclear how effective the Strategy’s

Caging Polyhalide Anions in Polycyclodextrin for Long‐Lasting Aqueous Zinc‐Iodine Batteries

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We demonstrated poly(β‐cyclodextrin) gel as an ideal host material that effectively contains and releases polyhalide anions in aqueous zinc‐iodine batteries. Such a unique host‐guest chemistry prevents the shuttle effect of polyhalides. The corresponding batteries can operate via both 2e and 4e storage, attaining 60,000 cycles with more than 99% and 85%

Intensified Manufactured Non‐Belonging: Working Holiday Makers in Australia During the COVID‐19 Pandemic

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nations manufacture non‐belonging of temporary migrants through policy frameworks that produce exclusion. This precarity maximises the economic benefit of temporary migrant labour by minimising their political, social and legal rights. In this paper, we examine how non‐belonging targeting Working Holiday Makers (WHMs) is manufactured in ...

Customer impatience in the GI/M(k)/1/N queue with working vacation: Economic and performance analysis

Croatian Operational Research Review
This study investigates a GI/M(k)/1/N queueing system with Bernoulli feedback and multiple working vacation policy. The model incorporates customer impatience and accounts for the retention of reneged customers.

Evaluation of therapeutic effects of D‐limonene following orchiopexy in the rat model of cryptorchidism

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
D‐limonene supplementation enhances testicular recovery following orchiopexy in a rat model of bilateral cryptorchidism. Treatment with D‐limonene reduces oxidative stress (↓MDA, ↑SOD, ↑GPx, ↑TAC), downregulates pro‐apoptotic proteins (↓TNF‐α, ↓BAX, ↓Caspase‐3), and upregulates anti‐apoptotic Bcl‐2 expression.

Effectiveness of the mobile application Holidaily in reducing work-related rumination when returning to work after vacation: a randomized controlled trial

Frontiers in Digital Health
BackgroundVacations reliably improve indicators of mental health, largely by providing relief from work-related stress. Low levels of work-related rumination, a key transdiagnostic factor linked to burnout and depression, are considered prerequisites for

Catalytic Pyrolysis of Waste Polystyrene Over Fe–B Composite Catalyst for Enhanced Liquid Fuel Production

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Healthcare derived polystyrene waste represents a growing and under addressed fraction of plastic waste streams due to contamination risks and limited recyclability. This study aims to investigate the valorization of waste polystyrene foam through catalytic and noncatalytic pyrolysis pathways to evaluate product yield distribution and identify
