Soft organic electrochemical neurons operating at biological speed

Organic electrochemical neurons respond to brain signals in real time, firing at biologically relevant speeds. Their flexibility and low power use could enable soft, implantable systems for closed-loop neuromodulation and future brain–computer interfaces.

Spatial epitranscriptomics reveals A-to-I editome specific to cancer stem cell microniches

The spatial context of epitranscriptomic features in the tumour microenvironment remains poorly understood. Here, a method for transcriptomic and epitranscriptomic analysis of immunofluorescence-stained tissue, Select-seq, is applied to stem cell-like microniches in triple negative breast cancer.

Autonomous helical propagation of active toroids with mechanical action

Self-assembly in nature is dynamic and exists in out-of-equilibrium state and thus systems have the ability to autonomously respond to environmental changes. Here the authors report that input of thermal energy can trigger fixed, artificial toroids to spontaneously nucleate helical growth.

Super elastic and negative triboelectric polymer matrix for high performance mechanoluminescent platforms

Mechanoluminescent platforms have emerged in smart wearable technology, however, their luminescence performance often deteriorates under extreme elastic conditions owing to a misinterpretation of polymer matrix behavior. Here, the authors study the role of polymer matrices in mechanoluminescence via elasticity-driven interface-triboelectric effects providing insights into selecting optimal polymers for smart wearable applications.

Both phytochrome A and phyB interact with PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTORs through an evolutionary conserved phy^OPM-APA interaction

Phytochromes are photoreceptors that interact with PIFs via APA or APB motifs. Here, the authors show that the light-dependent interaction between the APA motif and the C-terminal domain of phytochromes is an ancient feature conserved in land plants.

SiO-induced thermal instability and interplay between graphite and SiO in graphite/SiO composite anode

SiO is an adequate anode material for next generation lithium-ion batteries, but little is known about its aging mechanism. Here, the authors report thermal instability of the graphite/SiO composite anode induced by the accelerated loss of lithium from SiO and have elucidated the interplay between graphite and SiO.

Evolution from unimolecular to colloidal-quantum-dot-like character in chlorine or zinc incorporated InP magic size clusters

Magic size clusters have often been identified as intermediates in the formation of quantum dots from molecular precursors. Here, the authors report the syntheses of two families of chlorine- or zinc-doped indium phosphide magic size clusters and study their evolution from precursor to colloidal quantum dot.

Development of high-energy non-aqueous lithium-sulfur batteries via redox-active interlayer strategy

Lithium-sulfur batteries promise high energy density, but polysulfide shuttling acts as a major stumbling block toward practical development. Here, a redox-active interlayer is proposed to confine polysulfides, increase the cell capacity and improve cell cycle life.
