Ferguson effects: libidinal geographies of “police disengagement” and late fascist urbanism

Since the rise of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, a prominent form of pro-police backlash has emerged, one that claims the BLM movement has caused police to “disengage” from interventions with Black and other racialized people and caused a corresponding increase in crime r...

Understanding and Detecting Android R8 Compiler Bugs

Android apps currently dominate the smartphone app market, and their reliability will significantly affect user experience and even induce security risks. Since Android Gradle Plugin 3.4.0 (April 2019), the R8 compiler serves as the default infrastructure in the Android build pro...

Diels-Alder polyurethanes for reversible-by-design adhesives and coatings

Adhesively bonded joints with debonding-on-demand characteristics are required to combine high mechanical response with improved durability and sustainable end-of-life management. In this work, a novel polyurethane system based on Diels-Alder (DA) chemistry is proposed as a reusa...

Deep learning and edge computing framework for proactive pothole detection with Internet of Things

Potholes are one of the major concerns in terms of infrastructure and safety. They are a major concern for the safety of bikers, pedestrians, and vehicles. For the safety and maintenance of roads, it is imperative that pothole detection is carried out in real time with high accur...

Development of Calcium Signaling in Postsynaptic Neurons of the Medial Nucleus of the Trapezoid Body in the Mouse

Abstract Purpose In the central nervous system, Ca 2 ⁺ signaling plays a pivotal role in various cellular processes, including neuronal development and maturation. Disruption of Ca 2 ⁺ homeostasis impairs auditory circuit formation, compromising auditory processing and behavior....

How We Simulate Nanopores

Nanopore technology has revolutionized single-molecule science by enabling ultrasensitive characterization of biomolecular structure and interactions via accessible, physics-based tabletop measurements. In a typical experiment, the chemical structure of a biomolecule is determine...

Feeling the Best Fit: The Role of Emotions in College Decisions

Using ethnographic observations and interviews with students and staff in a college access nonprofit (CAN), I show that college-going inequalities may also reflect structurally based emotional barriers and that these barriers can be overcome through opportunities to imagine futur...

The Evolutionary Factory of False Mysteries The Infectious Origin of Human Intelligence

An Epistemological and Paleogenetic Framework on Host-PathogenCo-Evolution, Core Regulation of TKTL1, and the Epigenetic Hijacking of Cerebral Expansion. Dogmatic science views evolutionary milestones, such as the single amino acid substitution in the TKTL1 gene distinguishing mo...

Multi‐Scale Investigation of Supramolecular Organogels Assembled From Pt(II)‐Salphen Complexes

Supramolecular metallogels based on platinum(II) complexes have attracted growing interest due to their tunable photophysical properties. However, the potential of Pt(II)-salphen complexes as low-molecular-weight gelators remains largely unexplored. Here, we report a series of Pt...

The 380-Degree Rupture: Anwar Frangi's Creocratic Revolution (1): The Origin of the Creocratic State

This article, the first in a five-part series on Anwar Frangi’s creocratic revolution, presents the origin of the creocratic state. It begins with Frangi’s Galilean analogy: just as Galileo reversed Aristotle’s physics by showing that motion is natural and rest is derivative, Fra...

Artificial Intelligence for Sustainable Development in Low-Resource African Contexts: A Structured Review and Adaptive Deployment Framework

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly discussed as a tool for supporting sustainable development in Africa, particularly in healthcare, agriculture, education, and environmental management. However, the feasibility of AI deployment in low-resource contexts is shaped by fra...

Phi-Harmonic E8 Soliton Lattice for Lossless Acoustic Energy Transport — E8 Intelligence Research

By phi‑coupling the 132 Hz base frequency to each of the 240 E8 root vectors, a standing‑wave soliton lattice emerges where the root‑vector geometry defines tunneling channels for phi‑phase synchronized phononic solitons. These solitons propagate with minimal scattering because a...

Metabolic Blockade of Glycolysis Diminishes Autoreactive CD4 T-Cell Effector Responses in Type 1 Diabetes

Proinflammatory T helper 1 (Th1) CD4 T cells orchestrate β-cell destruction in type 1 diabetes (T1D) by using glycolysis for effector responses. By targeting T-cell metabolism, we may identify novel mechanisms and therapies to effectively delay T cell–mediated autoimmune diseases...

Summary Paper of project 412: A Structural Meta-Framework on the Conditions of Existence/Appearance

This 6-paged document outlines a domain-independent conceptual formalism presented as a structural meta-ontology anticipated to span several domains. The summary version remains commissioned to perform the function of providing the core architecture of the framework and is meant...

Preventive Strategies for Driveline Infections in Ventricular Assist Devices: A Systematic Review

Driveline infection (DLI) is the most frequent infectious complication in patients supported with ventricular assist devices (VADs) and remains a major cause of morbidity and rehospitalization. This systematic review aimed to synthesize the available evidence on preventive strate...

Intact Visual Correlation Detection in Autistic Adults

The ability to detect recurring temporal co-occurrence, or temporal correlation, of sensory events is fundamental for organizing perceptual input into coherent representations. Although past work has revealed differences across several aspects of temporal processing in autism, it...

Rare benzannulated spiroketal dimers from an endophytic Chaetomium sp.

Three undescribed dimeric benzannulated spiroketals (1 − 3) were isolated from the fermented broth of Chaetomium sp. UJN-EF006, an endophytic fungal strain derived from Vaccinium bracteatum. Structures of these distinctive fungal products were elucidated by comprehensive spectros...

Keratinocytes with DNA Aberration Induced by UVB Become Susceptible to Ferroptosis

Keratinocytes are key epidermal cells that are highly susceptible to ultraviolet (UV)-induced damage, which can lead to DNA mutations and the development of malignancies. In parallel, UV radiation induces lipid peroxidation (LPO), potentially facilitating the activation of ferrop...

Complex Identities, Complex Outcomes: Exploring Gender, Identity Aspects, and Well-Being Among Multisexual People

This study examined identity dimensions and mental well-being among multisexual individuals in Greece, addressing gaps in prior research. A sample of 109 adults completed a questionnaire assessing multisexual identity processes, gender identity, and mental well-being. Results sho...
