Yet, how temperature regulates migration dynamics at the single-cell level has remained poorly understood. Using zebrafish embryos and mouse tissue explants, we found that temperature positively regulates leukocyte migration speed, exploration, and arrival frequencies to wounds and lymph vessels. Complementary 2D and 3D cultures revealed that this thermokinetic control of cell migration is conserved across immune cell types, independently of the 3D tissue environment. By applying precise (sub-)cellular temperature modulation, we identified a rapid and reversible thermo-response that depends on myosin II activity. Small physiological increases in temperature (1°C –2°C), as present during fever-like conditions, profoundly increased immune responses by accelerating arrival times at lymphatic vessels and tissue wounds. These findings identify myosin-II-dependent actomyosin contractility as a critical mechanical structure regulating single-cell thermo-adaptability, with physiological implications for tuning the speed of immune responses in vivo."}],"oa_version":"Published Version","acknowledged_ssus":[{"_id":"NanoFab"}],"day":"11","type":"journal_article","doi":"10.1016/j.devcel.2025.10.006","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1878-1551"],"issn":["1534-5807"]},"citation":{"mla":"Company-Garrido, Iván, et al. “Myosin II Regulates Cellular Thermo-Adaptability and the Efficiency of Immune Responses.” <i>Developmental Cell</i>, vol. 61, no. 2, Elsevier, 2026, p. 356–371.e12, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.devcel.2025.10.006\">10.1016/j.devcel.2025.10.006</a>.","ieee":"I.

Disequilibration by sensitization of azobenzene under confinement (DESC) has recently emerged as a supramolecular strategy to bypass this limitation without the need to derivatize the azobenzene scaffold. Here, we expand DESC to water-soluble azopolymers obtained by RAFT polymerization and systematically investigate the interplay between the polymer structure and DESC efficiency. Using this approach, we achieved as much as 85% of the direct photoexcitation (UV) switching efficiency, while utilizing low-energy (yellow) light. These results establish general design principles for combining DESC with polymeric systems, opening new opportunities for the development of functional materials driven with low-energy light."}],"oa_version":"Published Version","day":"09","dataavailabilitystatement":"The data that support the findings of this study are available in the Supporting Information of this article.","date_published":"2026-02-09T00:00:00Z","researchdata_availability":"no","pmid":1,"file":[{"relation":"main_file","access_level":"open_access","creator":"dernst","checksum":"8ecd7578e6c7669f7ed729414ca207ca","file_name":"2026_AngewChemieInt_Meteling.pdf","success":1,"date_updated":"2026-07-23T06:51:16Z","date_created":"2026-07-23T06:51:16Z","file_size":1879669,"content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"22391"}],"month":"02","citation":{"mla":"Meteling, Henning Jörn, et al. “Sensitized Disequilibration of Water-Soluble Azopolymers.” <i>Angewandte Chemie International Edition</i>, vol. 65, no. 7, e23447, Wiley, 2026, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.202523447\">10.1002/anie.202523447</a>.","ieee":"H.

We also transfer the rational singularities property to other moduli spaces of objects in 2-Calabi-Yau categories, based on recent work of Davison. This has interesting arithmetic applications on quiver moment maps and moduli spaces of objects in 2-Calabi-Yau categories. First, we generalize results of Wyss on the asymptotic behaviour of counts of jets of quiver moment maps over finite fields. Moreover, we interpret the limit of counts of jets on a given moduli space as its p-adic volume under a canonical measure analogous to the measure built by Carocci, Orecchia and Wyss on certain moduli spaces of coherent sheaves."}],"file":[{"date_updated":"2026-07-23T05:50:09Z","success":1,"file_name":"2026_TransformationGroups_Vernet.pdf","checksum":"8985b4154b730284d3412ddc9e55d965","creator":"dernst","access_level":"open_access","relation":"main_file","file_id":"22385","content_type":"application/pdf","date_created":"2026-07-23T05:50:09Z","file_size":912029}],"isi":1,"date_published":"2026-03-01T00:00:00Z","researchdata_availability":"not applicable","dataavailabilitystatement":"Not applicable.","file_date_updated":"2026-07-23T05:50:09Z","year":"2026","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","volume":31,"oa":1,"has_accepted_license":"1","OA_type":"hybrid","PlanS_conform":"1","publication_status":"published","ec_funded":1,"corr_author":"1","intvolume":"        31","publication":"Transformation Groups","supplementarymaterial":"no","author":[{"id":"19f1e3bf-c59a-11ee-a1af-ed269948817b","first_name":"Tanguy","full_name":"Vernet, Tanguy","last_name":"Vernet"}],"department":[{"_id":"TaHa"}],"project":[{"name":"IST-BRIDGE: International postdoctoral program","grant_number":"101034413","_id":"fc2ed2f7-9c52-11eb-aca3-c01059dda49c","call_identifier":"H2020"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"_id":"17437","publisher":"Springer Nature","das_tickbox":"1","date_created":"2024-08-18T22:01:04Z","article_processing_charge":"Yes (via OA deal)","scopus_import":"1"},{"researchdata_availability":"upon request","pmid":1,"date_published":"2026-05-04T00:00:00Z","dataavailabilitystatement":"The data that support the findings of this study are available from the corresponding author upon reasonable request.","day":"04","oa_version":"None","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"CuAgSe-based materials are attractive for low-temperature thermoelectric (TE) applications but are limited by bipolar conduction and relatively high thermal conductivity. Herein, we report a ligand-free aqueous synthesis of Te-doped CuAgSe (CuAgSe1-xTex), where structural and electronic modulation improve carrier transport and suppress phonon propagation. Ex-situ time-resolved X-ray diffraction reveals a spontaneous growth mechanism, while density functional theory calculations show that Te-5s and 5p orbitals hybridization generates localized states and an asymmetric density of states, thereby enhancing the Seebeck coefficient. Electron microscopy and strain analyses confirm that Te-doping introduces a high density of lattice dislocations and grain boundaries, leading to a reduced lattice thermal conductivity of 0.11 W m−1K−1 at 443 K. These synergistic effects translate into device-level performance—the first integrated CuAgSe thermoelectric modules, exhibit a maximum cooling temperature difference of 27.3 K, and power density of 0.34 W cm−2 with a conversion efficiency of 3.6% at a modest temperature gradient of 136 K. These results demonstrate that CuAgSe1-xTex enables efficient energy harvesting and localized cooling under small temperature gradient, underscoring the importance of structural and electronic design beyond conventional zT benchmarks."}],"doi":"10.1002/smll.202513035","type":"journal_article","month":"05","publication_identifier":{"issn":["1613-6810"],"eissn":["1613-6829"]},"citation":{"chicago":"Meng, Weite, Mingquan Li, Qingyue Wang, Pingan Song, Xuan Yang, Wen Jun Wang, Min Hong, et al. “Efficient near Room Temperature Thermoelectric Cooling and Power Generation with CuAgSe.” <i>Small</i>.

Unfortunately, the BFT consensus algorithms that are the backbone of most of these blockchains scale poorly and offer limited throughput. In fact, many state-of-the-art BFT consensus algorithms require a single leader process to receive and validate votes from a quorum of processes and then broadcast the result, which is inherently non-scalable. Recent approaches avoid this bottleneck by using dissemination/aggregation trees to propagate values and collect and validate votes. However, the use of trees increases the round latency, which limits the throughput for deeper trees. In this paper we propose Kauri, a BFT communication abstraction that sustains high throughput as the system size grows by leveraging a novel pipelining technique to perform scalable dissemination and aggregation on trees. Furthermore, when the number of faults is moderate (arguably the most common case in practice), our construction is able to recover from faults in an optimal number of reconfiguration steps. We implemented and experimentally evaluated Kauri with up to 800 processes. Our results show that Kauri outperforms the throughput of state-of-the-art permissioned blockchain protocols, by up to 58x without compromising latency. Interestingly, in some cases, the parallelization provided by Kauri can also decrease the latency.","lang":"eng"}],"article_type":"original","tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","short":"CC BY (4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode"},"ddc":["000"],"date_updated":"2026-07-23T10:07:17Z","acknowledgement":"We thank the ACM TOCS Editors and the reviewers for their help in improving the manuscript.

Yet, while indicating that reafference originates from the mechanoreceptors, the mechanistic underpinnings of the whisking phase encoding within the follicle remain unclear. Here we present anatomical, histological, and biomechanical evidence for the presence of a distinctive elastic segment (ES) within the basal part of the whisker shaft inside the follicle. This ES, composed of immature keratin, is capable of both bending and twisting. Forces generated by whisker movement deform this segment, causing whisker shaft deflections that can stimulate specific mechanoreceptor subsets within the follicle at different phases of the whisking cycle. This mechanism appears to operate during both free‐air whisking and object contact. We propose that the ES enables torsion‐based mechanoreceptor activation, allowing encoding of the whisking phase."}],"doi":"10.1002/ar.70051","type":"journal_article","month":"07","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1932-8494"],"issn":["1932-8486"]},"citation":{"ista":"Haidarliu S, Nelinger G, Gantar L, Ahissar E, Saraf‐Sinik I. 2026.

In this study, FeCoNiMoW HEAs are synthesized into either amorphous nanosheets (HEANS) or crystalline nanoparticles (HEANP), which are then used to catalyze the lithium–sulfur (Li–S) reaction of Li–S batteries (LSBs). Evaluations in symmetric cells, coin cells, and pouch cells reveal that HEANS significantly enhance LSB performance, achieving initial discharge capacities up to 1632 mAh g−1. The batteries also exhibit excellent cycling stability over 1000 cycles at 3Cand maintain high-rate performance up to 10C with a capacity of 614 mAh g−1. Comprehensive in situ analyses and density functional theory calculations demonstrate that amorphous HEANS provide more active sites, better ionic conductivity and stronger chemical interactions with lithium polysulfides (LiPS). These properties effectively suppress the shuttle effect, promote the complete S8 → Li2S conversion by reducing the impedance of the solid-electrolyte interphase, and accelerate the Li2S4 → Li2S2 step by lowering the nucleation energy barrier. Overall, this study highlights the superior catalytic properties of amorphous 2D HEAs in LSBs and offers new insights into the mechanisms of LiPS conversion."}],"oa_version":"Published Version","day":"15","ddc":["540"],"tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by_nc_nd.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY-NC-ND (4.0)"},"article_type":"original","acknowledgement":"The authors acknowledge support from the 2BoSS project of the ERA-MIN3 program with the Spanish grant number PCI2022-132985/AEI/10.13039/50110001103, and funding from Generalitat de Catalunya 2021SGR01581 and European Union NextGenerationEU/PRTR.

It plays a central role in the weather and climate of the Tropics, where, to first order, the heating of the atmosphere by convection is in balance with the cooling of the atmosphere by the emission of radiation to outer space. In this study, we use a cloud-resolving model in radiative–convective equilibrium with an imposed constant rate of radiative cooling and study the response of moist convection to varying this rate of radiative cooling. In particular, we study two types of simulation: varying air temperature (VAT) simulations, where the air temperature is allowed to adjust to the imposed radiative cooling, and constant air temperature (CAT) simulations, where the surface temperature is tuned to ensure that the atmospheric temperature profile in the domain is constant. We recover the previously known result that, in response to increasing radiative cooling, the area of convection expands rapidly, while the intensity of convection does not change. We find that this response is explained by the increased boundary-layer variability in simulations with greater radiative cooling, which compensates for the decreasing temperature by adding a larger initial velocity close to the cloud base. We also propose a fundamental scaling of the non-dimensional cumulus mass flux in moist convection, which is robust across models of different complexity. We aim to bridge the gap between highly idealised prototypes of moist convection, such as the “Rainy–Bénard convection” introduced by Vallis et al., and comprehensive cloud-resolving models.","lang":"eng"}],"oa_version":"Published Version","file":[{"content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"22398","file_size":2665988,"date_created":"2026-07-23T12:10:28Z","success":1,"file_name":"2026_QuartJourRoyalMeteorobiolSoc_Agasthya.pdf","date_updated":"2026-07-23T12:10:28Z","access_level":"open_access","relation":"main_file","checksum":"8dd4d4d3ad027a4d26cbe5b1d66371e9","creator":"dernst"}],"date_published":"2026-01-01T00:00:00Z","dataavailabilitystatement":"The data that support the findings of this study are available from the corresponding author, L.

First, the broadcast problem: given n agents, each agent is tasked to forward a (unique) message to every other agent. Agents collaborate and can copy and forward all messages they have received up until that point. Broadcast is achieved when one agent has successfully broadcast its message to everyone else. We studied the case where the communication network is controlled by an adversary, under the condition that the graph is rooted in every round of communication. We show that the adversary can delay broadcast for at most  l\r\n(1 + √\r\n2)n\r\nm\r\n rounds, improving on the $O(n\\log\\log n)$ previous upper bound~\\cite{fugger2020radius}, and asymptotically matching the $\\sim 1.5n$ lower bound~\\cite{schwarz2017linear}.\r\n\r\nWe then looked at the stochastic version of the problem: here, the adversary -- parametrized by $k$ where $k=0$ signifies that the adversary has no control,  and $k=n$ that the adversary has full control -- can choose parts of the graph, and the graph is then completed stochastically. Here, we are able to look at a stronger version of broadcast: instead of having $n$ messages trying to be broadcast in parallel, we can assume that only one message needs to be broadcasted. We show the bound $\\Theta(k+\\log n)$.\r\n\r\nThen, we looked at undecided states dynamics in population protocols: given a population of $n$ agents, where each initially holds an opinion among $k$ different ones. In each round, two agents are chosen uniformly at random, and can interact. If they have different opinions, they forget their opinions and become undecided. If one of them is undecided while the other has an opinion, they undecided agent copies they opinion of the decided one. The question is then, how many interactions does it take for the whole population to share the same opinion? We show a $\\Omega(kn\\log \\frac {\\sqrt n} {k \\log n})$ lower bound  for any $k = o\\left(\\frac {\\sqrt n}{\\log n}\\right)$.\r\nThis is tight for any $ k \\le n^{\\frac 1 2 - \\epsilon}$, where $\\epsilon >0$ can be any small constant, matching the known $O(kn\\log n)$ upper bound for $k = O\\left(\\frac {\\sqrt n} {\\log ^2 n}\\right)$~\\cite{DBLP:conf/podc/AmirABBHKL23}.\r\n\r\nFinally, in dynamic algorithms, we study the minimum cut problem: we are given a graph, whose vertex set we want to partition into two subsets such that the number of edges crossing from one subset to the other is minimized. Then, the graph can be updated via edge insertions or deletions, and we must update the solution without recomputing everything from scratch. We present an exact fully-dynamic minimum cut algorithm that runs in $n^{o(1)}$ deterministic update time when the minimum cut size is at most $2^{\\Theta(\\log^{3/4-c}n)}$ for any $c>0$, improving on the previous algorithm~\\cite{DBLP:conf/soda/JinST24} whose minimum cut size limit is $(\\log n)^{o(1)}$. Using sparsification and randomization techniques, we are able to extend this to all values of the minimum cut in weighted graphs, at the cost of a $(1+o(1))$-approximation ratio.","lang":"eng"}],"oa_version":"Published Version","day":"13"},{"acknowledgement":"Funded by the European union.

Previous works showed that the complexity of computing the diameter mainly depends on the object types: for unit disks and squares in 2D, the problem is solvable in truly subquadratic time [Chan et al., 2025], while for other objects, including unit segments and equilateral triangles in 2D or unit balls and axis-parallel unit cubes in 3D, there is no truly subquadratic time algorithm under the Orthogonal Vector (OV) hypothesis [Bringmann et al., 2022]. \r\nWe undertake a comprehensive study of computing the diameter of geometric intersection graphs for various types of objects. We discover many new irregularities, showing that the landscape is extremely nuanced: the source of hardness is a combination of the object type, the true diameter value, and how the objects intersect with each other. Our highlighted results for the 2D case include:  \r\n1) The diameter of non-degenerate, axis-aligned line segments can be computed in truly subquadratic time. Previous hardness result [Bringmann et al., 2022] for line segments applies only to degenerate instances. On the other hand, for the degenerate case, we show that a truly subquadratic time algorithm exists when the true diameter is constant. \r\n2) An almost-linear-time algorithm for unit-square graphs of constant diameter. Previous algorithms [Duraj et al., 2024; Chan et al., 2025] rely on succinct representation assuming bounded VC-dimension; for such a strategy Ω(n^{7/4}) time is an inherent barrier. \r\n3) An Õ(n^{4/3})-time algorithm to decide if the diameter of a unit-disk graph is at most 2. This improves upon the recent algorithm with running time Õ(n^{2-1/9}) [Chan et al., 2025]. \r\n4) Deciding if the diameter of intersection graphs of fat triangles or line segments is at most 2 is truly subquadratic-hard under fine-grained complexity assumptions. Previous lower bounds [Bringmann et al., 2022] only hold when deciding if diameter is at most 3.  Our findings are presented in a pair of papers.

In these modalities, contrast transfer is often suppressed at low spatial frequencies, resulting in a characteristic contrast gap that limits contrast. Approaches that retain low‐frequency phase contrast exist but typically require substantially increased experimental complexity, restricting routine use. Dark‐field STEM imaging captures this missing low‐frequency information through electrons scattered outside the bright‐field disk, but discards a large fraction of the scattered signal and is therefore dose‐inefficient. Fused Full‐field STEM (FF‐STEM) is introduced as a 4D‐STEM imaging modality that overcomes these limitations by combining ptychographic phase reconstruction with tilt‐corrected dark‐field imaging within a single acquisition. Bright‐field data are used to estimate probe aberrations and reconstruct a high‐resolution phase image, while dark‐field data provide complementary low‐frequency contrast. The two channels are fused in Fourier space using Wiener‐band weighting based on the spectral signal‐to‐noise ratio, yielding transfer‐gap‐free images with high contrast. FF‐STEM preserves the upsampling and depth‐sectioning capabilities of ptychography, adds robust low‐frequency contrast characteristic of dark‐field imaging, and enables dose‐efficient, near–real‐time reconstruction.","lang":"eng"}],"oa_version":"Published Version","arxiv":1,"DOAJ_listed":"1","oa":1,"OA_type":"gold","has_accepted_license":"1","PlanS_conform":"1","publication_status":"epub_ahead","year":"2026","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","publication":"Advanced Science","supplementarymaterial":"yes","article_number":"e76620","department":[{"_id":"FlSc"},{"_id":"GradSch"}],"author":[{"full_name":"You, Shengbo","last_name":"You","first_name":"Shengbo"},{"first_name":"Georgios","full_name":"Varnavides, Georgios","last_name":"Varnavides"},{"last_name":"Khavnekar","full_name":"Khavnekar, Sagar","first_name":"Sagar"},{"first_name":"Nikita","full_name":"Palatkin, Nikita","last_name":"Palatkin"},{"full_name":"Shao, Sihan","last_name":"Shao","first_name":"Sihan"},{"full_name":"Wu, Mingjian","last_name":"Wu","first_name":"Mingjian"},{"full_name":"Stroppa, Daniel","last_name":"Stroppa","first_name":"Daniel"},{"first_name":"Darya","id":"7dbaf460-fa9e-11eb-b0ca-bc7c7ff21ad0","last_name":"Chernikova","full_name":"Chernikova, Darya"},{"first_name":"Baixu","full_name":"Zhu, Baixu","last_name":"Zhu"},{"full_name":"Egoavil, Ricardo","last_name":"Egoavil","first_name":"Ricardo"},{"full_name":"Vespucci, Stefano","last_name":"Vespucci","first_name":"Stefano"},{"first_name":"Dileep","full_name":"Krishnan, Dileep","last_name":"Krishnan"},{"first_name":"Xingchen","last_name":"Ye","full_name":"Ye, Xingchen"},{"last_name":"Schur","full_name":"Schur, Florian KM","orcid":"0000-0003-4790-8078","id":"48AD8942-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Florian KM"},{"first_name":"Erdmann","last_name":"Spiecker","full_name":"Spiecker, Erdmann"},{"full_name":"Pelz, Philipp","last_name":"Pelz","first_name":"Philipp"}],"date_created":"2026-07-26T19:01:34Z","article_processing_charge":"Yes","scopus_import":"1","_id":"22403","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publisher":"Wiley","das_tickbox":"1"},{"title":"A century of theories of balancing selection","external_id":{"isi":["001614285900001"],"pmid":["41235821 "]},"status":"public","quality_controlled":"1","OA_place":"publisher","date_updated":"2026-07-27T08:08:09Z","acknowledgement":"We thank Brian Charlesworth, Deborah Charlesworth, and Sally Otto for extensive comments and suggestions.

This genetic variation is vital for populations to adapt to their environments, but it is also surprising given that nature – after all – ‘selects’ the best genotypes at the expense of those that fall short. Explaining the extensive genetic variation of fitness‐related traits is thus a longstanding puzzle in evolutionary biology, with cascading implications for ecology, conservation, and human health. Balancing selection – an umbrella term for scenarios in which natural selection maintains genetic variation – is a century‐old explanation to resolve this puzzle that has gained recent momentum from genome‐scale methods for detecting it. Yet evaluating whether balancing selection can, in fact, resolve the puzzle is challenging, given the logistical constraints of distinguishing balancing selection from alternative hypotheses and the daunting collection of theoretical models that formally underpin this debate. Here, we track the development of balancing selection theory over the last century and provide an accessible review of this rich collection of models. We first outline the range of biological scenarios that can generate balancing selection. We then examine how fundamental features of genetic systems – non‐random mating between individuals, ploidy levels, genetic drift, linkage, and genetic architectures of traits – have been progressively incorporated into the theory. We end by linking these theoretical predictions to ongoing empirical efforts to understand the evolutionary processes that explain genetic variation."}],"file":[{"success":1,"file_name":"2026_BiologicalReviews_Ruzicka.pdf","date_updated":"2026-07-27T08:07:35Z","access_level":"open_access","relation":"main_file","checksum":"167d95cf0570d6e3653ab349b2a4355c","creator":"dernst","content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"22409","file_size":1757556,"date_created":"2026-07-27T08:07:35Z"}],"date_published":"2026-04-01T00:00:00Z","researchdata_availability":"no","pmid":1,"isi":1,"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1469-185X"],"issn":["1464-7931"]},"citation":{"chicago":"Ruzicka, Filip, Martyna K.
