Optical-handedness-driven enantioselective synthesis and programmable chirality encoding of covalent organic frameworks

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) typically require chiral precursors or catalysts to achieve asymmetry. Here, we report the enantioselective synthesis of chemically chiral COFs using circularly polarized light (CP-λ) as the sole chiral director. By exploiting the reversibility...

MXene ‐ MWCNTs Hybrid Reinforced PA6 Nanocomposites for Electronic Packaging Applications

ABSTRACT MXene is considered a promising 2D material for advanced thermal management, flexible electronics, and conductive polymer nanocomposites due to its high electrical conductivity, layered morphology, and tunable surface chemistry. In the present work, various MXene‐based h...

Training, assessing, and matching students in technology-mediated peer learning environments

Tutoring is among the most effective learning interventions, yet it remains costly and difficult to implement at scale. Peer tutoring offers a promising alternative, but schools face barriers related to training, pairing, assessment, and classroom management. This study evaluates...

An enhanced YOLOv8-pose network for joint image-based tennis action classification and human pose estimation

Abstract This study addresses joint single-frame player-instance tennis action classification and human pose estimation from individual RGB images. We propose an enhanced YOLOv8-Pose network that jointly predicts player bounding boxes, action labels, and 17 human keypoints. The n...

Identifying a Langmuir–Hinshelwood Hydrogenation Mechanism to Design a Bimetallic AgPd Catalyst for Electrochemical Acetylene‐to‐Ethylene Conversion

ABSTRACT The intensified hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) competition is an elusive obstacle for the practical application of electrocatalytic acetylene (C 2 H 2 ) hydrogenation (EAH) for petroleum‐independent ethylene (C 2 H 4 ) formation. Fundamentally, ambiguous mechanistic i...

Soil organic carbon and rice yield stability under unfavorable conditions: Contrasting responses across soil types in long-term Japanese paddy experiments

Background Soil organic carbon (SOC), a widely used indicator of soil organic matter status, is known to improve average crop yield, but its role in contributing to yield stability under environmental stress remains poorly understood, particularly in paddy ecosystems. Purpose Thi...

Ionizable Lipid Nanoparticles as a siRNA Delivery Carrier: A Review

Abstract Small interfering RNA (siRNA)-based gene silencing has evolved as a promising strategy for treating a wide range of human diseases. However, naked siRNA molecules are susceptible to degradation by cellular nucleases, immune activation, and rapid renal clearance. Therefor...

Transformer-based architectures for anomaly detection in solar-wind integrated energy infrastructures

The growing incorporation of variable solar and wind power in electrical grids leads to serious issues concerning reliability due to the complexity of spatial and temporal behavior caused by factors like variations in environmental conditions, degradation of equipment, failures o...

Moral distress and moral injury among nurses in German acute inpatient care – a cross-sectional study

Abstract Background Moral suffering in health care is increasingly a focus of research. The extent of and relationship between two distinct forms of moral suffering, namely, moral injury (MI) and moral distress (MD), has not yet been studied in nurses in acute inpatient care in G...

Integrated proteomics and glycoproteomics reveal metabolic reprogramming in Nannochloropsis oceanica under CO₂ limitation

Nannochloropsis oceanica , a model oleaginous microalga with emerging applications in food and bioenergy, relies on carbon-concentrating mechanisms (CCMs) to adapt to low CO₂ conditions, yet the role of glycosylation in this process remains unclear. Here, we applied 4D-DIA proteo...

Measure the divergence, not the agreement: A manifesto for the Real User Cost Framework

Contemporary user experience measurement collapses attitudinal and behavioural evidence into composite scores. This paper argues that the collapse destroys the most diagnostically valuable signal available: the direction and magnitude of divergence between what users do and what...
