Epoxy coating to prolog actuation time in degas-driven PDM micropums
To enhance the portability of Lab-on-a-Chip technology, avoiding bulky electronic flow control systems is crucial. Self-powered microfluidics can significantly improve portability by eliminating the need for electronic ...
Correction: Simulating active agents under confinement with Dissipative Particles Dynamics
An incorrect Funding statement was provided. The correct funding statement reads: C. Valeriani acknowledges fundings from MINECO PID2019-105343GB-I00 and EUR2021-122001 by MCIN/AEI/ 10.13039/501100011033 and FEDER, UE. I. ...
Mapping the structure and function of whole-mount retinal organoids
Cell therapy is a therapeutic avenue for retinal degenerative diseases. Photoreceptortransplantation faces challenges in obtaining high-quality and mature photoreceptors that caneffectively integrate and function, facilitating ...
In-vitro mechanical performance of three CAD-CAM bar designs for implant-supported metal-resin hybrid prostheses: a preliminary pilot study
Background Implant-supported hybrid metal–resin prostheses are widely used to rehabilitate edentulous patients. However, fractures of the veneering resin and screw complications remain common mechanical failures. Advances ...
Airbrushing: A Novel Method for Preparation of High-Emissivity Black Coating for Infrared Measurements
The reliability of infrared (IR) imaging is strongly dependent on the surface emissivity of the investigated object. Achieving near-unity emissivity is essential to IR measurement accuracy. To meet this requirement, black ...
Tunable dynamics of flexible magnetic microcrosses: synchronous rotation, breathing and out-of-plane arm overtaking
We combine colloidal self-assembly and soft-lithography techniques to realize flexible magnetic microcrosses that can be manipulated via external, time dependent magnetic fields. The crosses are characterized by a central ...
Dichroism of coupled multipolar plasmonic modes in twisted triskelion stacks
We present a systematic investigation of the optical response to circularly polarized illumination in twisted stacked plasmonic nanostructures. The system consists in two identical, parallel gold triskelia, centrally aligned ...
Role of connectivity anisotropies in the dynamics of cultured neuronal networks
An inherent challenge in designing laboratory-grown, engineered living neuronal networks lies in predicting the dynamic repertoire of the resulting network and its sensitivity to experimental variables. To fill this gap, ...
Citizen Science initiatives in climate-vulnerable neighbourhoods: a new transdisciplinary approach to tackle sustainability challenges?
According to the Spanish State Meteorological Agency (AEMET), the summer of 2025 (June 1-August 31) was exceptionally warm across Spain, with an average temperature of 24.2°C on the mainland. This value is 2.1°C above the ...
Role of nanoparticle shape on the critical size for quasi-uniform ordering: From spheres to cubes through superballs
The equilibrium states of single-domain magnetite nanoparticles (NPs) result from a subtle interplay between size, geometry, and magnetocrystalline anisotropy. In this work, we present a micromagnetic study of shape-controlled ...
Modular architecture confers robustness to damage and facilitates recovery in spikingneural networks modeling in vitro neurons
Impaired brain function is restored following injury through dynamic processes that involve synaptic plasticity. This restoration is supported by the brain’s inherent modular organization, which promotes functional separation ...
Optimal navigability of weighted human brain connectomes in physical space
Communication protocols in the brain connectome describe how to transfer information from one region to another. Typically, these protocols hinge on either the spatial distances between brain regions or the intensity of ...
Variability vs. phenotype: Multimodal analysis of Dravet syndrome brain organoids powered by deep learning
Dravet syndrome (DS) is a developmental epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) driven by pathogenic variants in the SCN1A gene. Brain organoids (BOs) have emerged as reliable models for neurodevelopmental genetic disorders, ...
Biblioteques i universitats públiques: un camí comú cap a una ciència més ciutadana
Les biblioteques públiques estan vivint un procés de transformació per adaptar-se a l’esperit dels temps: desenvolupen nous rols de col·laboració amb les universitats, apropen la recerca científica a la comunitat i esdevenen ...
Discounting the Distant Future: What Do Historical Bond Prices Imply about the Long-Term Discount Rate?
We present a thorough empirical study on real interest rates by also including risk aversion through the introduction of the market price of risk. From the viewpoint of complex systems science and its multidisciplinary ...
The role of thermal coupling on avalanches in manganites
We report here a study on the environmental dependence of the occurrence, at low temperature, of ultra-sharp field induced avalanches in phase separated manganites. Despite the high reproducibility of avalanches, it has ...
Driving Magnetic Domains at the Nanoscale by Interfacial Strain-induced Proximity
We investigate the local nanoscale changes of the magnetic anisotropy of a Ni film subject to an inverse magnetostrictive effect by proximity to a V2O3 layer. Using temperature-dependent photoemission electron microscopy ...
The role of thermal coupling on avalanches in manganites
We report here a study on the environmental dependence of the occurrence, at low temperature, of ultra-sharp field induced avalanches in phase separated manganites. Despite the high reproducibility of avalanches, it has ...
Effect of stochastic resettings on the counting of level crossings for inertial random processes
We study the counting of level crossings for inertial random processes exposed to stochastic resetting events. We develop the general approach of stochastic resetting for inertial processes with sudden changes in the state ...
Mixed-order phase transition in a colloidal crystal
Mixed-order phase transitions display a discontinuity in the order parameter like first-order transitions yet feature critical behavior like second-order transitions. Such transitions have been predicted for a broad range ...
