Interface-driven effects on magnon dynamics are studied in magnetic insulator-metal bilayers using Brillouin light scattering. It is found that the Damon-Eshbach modes exhibit a significant frequency shift due to interfacial anisotropy generated by thin metallic overlayers. In addition, an unexpectedly large shift in the perpendicular standing spin wave mode frequencies is also observed, which cannot be explained by anisotropy-induced mode stiffening or surface pinning. Rather, it is suggested that additional confinement may result from spin pumping at the insulator-metal interface, which results in a locally overdamped interface region. These results uncover previously unidentified interface-driven changes in magnetization dynamics that may be exploited to locally control and modulate magnonic properties in thin-film heterostructures.

Purpose: This narrative review aims to provide an overview of current knowledge on mpox, emphasizing updated epidemiology and recent advances in treatment and prevention strategies, in light of the latest outbreaks.
Methods: We searched PubMed and Google Scholar for publications on 'Mpox' and 'Monkeypox' up to June 5, 2025. Grey literature from governmental and health agencies was also accessed for outbreak reports and guidelines where published evidence was unavailable.

The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the continuously evolving SARS-CoV-2 virus, has presented persistent global health challenges. As novel variants emerge, many with enhanced transmissibility and immune evasion capabilities, concerns have intensified regarding the efficacy of existing vaccines and therapeutics. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current landscape of COVID-19 vaccination, including the development and performance of monovalent and bivalent boosters, and examines their effectiveness against newly emerging variants of interest (VOIs) and variants under monitoring (VUMs), such as JN.

Catheter associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) is the most frequent healthcare associated infection, arising from microbial adhesion to catheter surfaces, biofilm development, and the growing problem of antimicrobial resistance. Many publications have addressed CAUTI epidemiology, biofilm biology, or biomaterials for catheters in isolation, yet there is little literature that connects these areas into a coherent translational perspective. This review seeks to fill that gap by combining an overview of biofilm pathophysiology with recent advances in material based innovations for catheter design, including nanostructured and responsive coatings, sensor enabled systems, additive manufacturing, and three dimensional printing.

Accurate three-dimensional localisation of ultrasonic bat calls is essential for advancing behavioural and ecological research. I present a comprehensive, open-source simulation framework-Array WAH-for designing, evaluating, and optimising microphone arrays tailored to bioacoustic tracking. The tool incorporates biologically realistic signal generation, frequency-dependent propagation, and advanced Time Difference of Arrival (TDoA) localisation algorithms, enabling precise quantification of both positional and angular accuracy.
