Bubble-assisted cleaning for primary amine oxidation towards ampere-level current densities
Abstract Organic molecular oxidation reactions are ideally regarded to be energy-saving alternative to replace oxygen evolution reaction (OER) for lowering the o...
Multiomic analysis identifies glutaminolysis-dependent metabolic enhancement of immune memory utilised for vaccine development
Abstract Vaccines work by inducing an immunological memory response to protect against infection or disease. More effective vaccines are required to improve protection of high-risk g...
A dual-pathway dysregulation in prefrontal-habenular circuits mediates stress susceptibility
Discovery of an isoflavone biosynthetic pathway in Iridaceae plants
Early-Stage Corticostriatal Hyperactivity Impairs Cognitive Flexibility Alongside Striatal Cholinergic Dysfunction in an Alzheimer’s Disease Model
Abstract Cognitive flexibility declines early in Alzheimer’s disease, yet the underlying circuit mechanisms remain unknown. Here, we report that young 5xFAD mice exhibit deficits in...
Slowing the spread of treatment failure to artemisinin-based combination therapies in Uganda
Rising tree mortality in France is associated with distinct seasonal climate anomalies
Abstract Tree mortality is rising across European forests, yet its dominant drivers remain difficult to disentangle. Analyzing over 500,000 trees from the French National Forest Inve...
Parallel execution of nonlinear logic circuits using reconfigurable free-space diffractive optics
Neural and computational correlates of strategic aborting and long-run policy optimization in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex
Ultranarrow bright single-photon emitters in diamond with strong broadband phonon decoupling
Coupled dual-channel memristors for hardware-native trustworthy Bayesian intelligence
Giant tunable barocaloric effects using guest-molecule adsorption in a porous metal-organic framework
Abstract Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) that exhibit first-order structural phase transitions with significant volume changes are promising candidates for baroc...
Gut bacterial metabolite imidazole propionate potentiates Alzheimer’s disease pathology
Abstract The gut microbiome modulates metabolic and neurovascular processes implicated in Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD), but the underlying mechanisms remain uncle...
Observation of localization reversal and harmonic generation in nonlinear non-Hermitian skin effect
Abstract The interplay between band topology and material nonlinearity gives rise to a variety of novel phenomena, such as topological solitons and nonlinearity-induced topological p...
Advancing fair and explainable machine learning for neuroimaging dementia pattern classification in multi-racial and multi-ethnic populations
Abstract Dementia, a degenerative disease affecting millions globally, is projected to triple by 2050. Early and precise diagnosis is essential for effective treatment and improved q...
Low-dimensional and optimised representations of high-level information in the expert brain
Severe droughts in Senegal are linked to increased family reunification at migration destinations in Europe
Hydrogen bond stabilized *CO intermediate enables CO2 electroreduction to multi-electron products on silver catalysts
Abstract Silver is an extensively investigated electrode material for electrochemical CO 2 reduction owing to its high el...
Targeting DGAT1 reprograms lipid landscape and restores CD8⁺ T cell immunity in pancreatic cancer
A family of archaeal hibernation factors that bind in tandem and protect ribosomes in dormant cells
Abstract Under nutrient limitation or stress, ribosome hibernation factors inactivate and protect ribosomes. Although ribosome hibernation plays an important rol...
Global long-term agricultural experiments reveal consequences of mineral fertilization for soil microbiomes
Highly efficient anogenital transmission of clade Ia monkeypox virus associated with increased shedding
Optimizing reversible solid oxide cell technology for long-term energy storage in Europe’s decarbonized frameworks
Abstract Energy storage is crucial for enhancing energy security. In this study, we explore the indispensable roles of both long-term and short-term energy storage solutions, demonst...
A mechano-integrated gradient electrolyte for long-cycling solid-state lithium metal batteries
Abstract Overcoming interfacial mechano-electrochemical failure remains a fundamental challenge in solid-state lithium metal batteries, where polymers offer conf...
