Many soft, tough materials have emerged in recent years, paving the way for advances in wearable electronics, soft robotics, and flexible displays. However, understanding the interfacial fracture behavior of these materials remains a significant challenge, owing to the difficulty of quantifying the respective contributions from viscoelasticity and damage to energy dissipation ahead of cracks. This work aims to address this challenge by labeling a series of polymer networks with fluorogenic mechanophores, subjecting them to T-peel tests at various rates and temperatures, and quantifying their force-induced damage using a confocal microscope.

Despite periods of permanent darkness and extensive ice coverage in polar environments, photosynthetic ice diatoms display a remarkable capability of living inside the ice matrix. How these organisms navigate such hostile conditions with limited light and extreme cold remains unknown. Using a custom subzero temperature microscope during an Arctic expedition, we present the finding of motility at record-low temperatures in a Eukaryotic cell.

Liver cancer, particularly hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), poses significant treatment challenges due to chemoresistance and cancer recurrence. Similar to customs at the border, the liver detoxifies incoming chemicals via efflux pumps and overexpresses ATP-binding cassette (ABC) drug exporters, leading to chemoresistance. ABC contains a multihomosubunit structure and a revolving transport mechanism, actively effluxing drugs from cancer cells, thereby reducing intracellular drug accumulation and therapeutic efficacy.

The iron-based high-[Formula: see text] superconductors (SCs) exhibit rich phase diagrams with intertwined phases, including magnetism, nematicity, and superconductivity. The superconducting [Formula: see text] in many of these materials is maximized in the regime of strong nematic fluctuations, making the role of nematicity in influencing the superconductivity a topic of intense research. Here, we use the AC elastocaloric effect (ECE) to map out the phase diagram of Ba(FeCo)As near optimal doping.

Understanding cerebral circulation is crucial for early diagnosis and patient-oriented therapies for brain conditions. However, blood flow simulations at the organ scale have been limited. This work introduces a framework for modeling extensive vascular networks in the human cerebral cortex and conducting pulsatile blood flow simulations.
