Architecture and gathering: on spatiality, conception and revaluation in material reuse practice
Purpose This paper seeks to advance the gathering of used materials for construction both as a practice and as a conceptual framework relevant to architecture. It critically examines disposed building materials, including their societal flows, their role in design processes and t...

Synergistic magneto-enzymatic propulsion enables multimodal nanomotor swarms
Abstract Enzymatic nanomotors self-propel by converting free molecular energy from chemical reactions. While initially used mainly as individual particles, these systems are increasingly implemented as swarms, where collective effects enable adaptable navigation in complex enviro...

Profiling motivation, stress, and empathy in distinct stages of medical education
Medical Education is one of the most demanding disciplines worldwide. Motivation, perceived stress, and empathy are three core structures that shape medical student’s academic performance, psychological well-being, and quality of future patient care. Although these factors have b...

Shared and distinct gain-of-function consequences from pathologic cytoplasmic versus nuclear TDP-43
Abstract While predominantly nuclear localized in healthy cells, TDP-43 can transit between the nucleus and cytoplasm. In frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD-TDP) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), TDP-43 accumulates in hyperphosphorylated cytoplasmic aggregates. Howeve...
