Metal halide perovskites have emerged as a transformative class of semiconductors, driving advancements in optoelectronics, photovoltaics, and sensing technologies. One of the key challenges in optimizing these materials for next-generation devices is controlling the flow of energy within them, which is highly sensitive to structural and dimensional factors. Recent advances in phase and dimensionality engineering have opened new avenues for tailoring energy transport and excitonic behaviors in perovskite heterostructures. By controlling the dimensionality and tuning the phases of perovskites, it is possible to achieve enhanced efficiency, stability, and selectivity in energy transfer processes. This perspective explores the fundamental principles of energy flow in perovskites and related materials, highlighting how phase transitions and dimensionality control can be leveraged to design optimized heterostructures for cutting-edge optoelectronic applications.

Hospital operating theatre suites are a particularly resource- and energy-intensive component of the health sector. Reducing their carbon footprint presents a significant challenge due to the necessity of maintaining patient safety. In this paper, we apply a multidisciplinary methodology to investigate and assess various strategies aimed at reducing the carbon footprint in hospital theatres.

Metabolic synergy between astrocytes and neurons is key to maintaining normal brain function. As the main supporting cells in the brain, astrocytes work closely with neurons through intercellular metabolic synergy networks to jointly regulate energy metabolism, lipid metabolism, synaptic transmission, and cerebral blood flow. This important synergy is often disrupted in neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and stroke.

Wastewater solids management is a key contributor to the operational cost and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of water resource recovery facilities (WRRFs). This study proposes a 'waste-to-energy' strategy using a hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL)-based system to displace conventional energy- and emission-intensive practices. The proposed system directs HTL-produced biocrude to oil refineries and recovers regionally tailored nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers.

The onset and progression of periodontitis are closely related to metabolic reprogramming in the periodontal microenvironment, with osteoclasts playing a critical role in tissue destruction. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of periodontal tissues from healthy individuals and patients with severe chronic periodontitis revealed a significant increase in the expression of mitochondrial-related genes during osteoclast differentiation, suggesting the critical role of mitochondrial function in this process. This study investigates the potential of the novel mitoribosome-targeting antibiotic radezolid in inhibiting osteoclast differentiation.

Objectives: Left ventricular vortex dynamics play a crucial role in cardiac function but are significantly altered by mitral valve diseases or surgical interventions. Such hemodynamic changes may lead to maladaptive intracardiac vortices, potentially triggering pathways associated with progressive left ventricular remodeling and thrombosis. This study assessed left ventricular hemodynamics under both physiological and pathological conditions using a biohybrid in vitro platform, aiming to analyze the impact of these conditions on cardiac function.
