text: Epithelial tissues function as multicellular communities that preserve tissue
integrity while adapting to diverse environmental stresses by altering cell behaviors.
A striking manifestation of such adaptability is cell plasticity, the ability
of differentiated cells to revert to stem-like states or adopt alternative fates.
Once considered rare and confined to highly regenerative species, cell plasticity
is now recognized across the metazoan tree. In early-branching animals such as
sponges and cnidarians, transdifferentiation and dedifferentiation are integral
to life-cycle transitions and regeneration, whereas in more complex organisms,
these processes typically emerge under stress, including stem cell loss or environmental
perturbations. Here, we examine epithelial cell plasticity through evolutionary,
cellular, and molecular perspectives. Focusing on the intestinal epithelium, we
explore findings from mammalian and Drosophila models showing that progenitors
and even terminally differentiated cells can dedifferentiate in response to external
stimuli that disrupt homeostasis, such as pathogen infection and nutrient fluctuations.
We further discuss conserved mechanisms involving intercellular signaling (e.g.,
Notch, EGFR, and JAK-STAT) and chromatin states primed for reprogramming, modulated
by metabolic cues. Together, these insights position cell plasticity as an ancient
environmental adaptation strategy, shaped by conserved molecular toolkits and
refined by species- and cell lineage-specific innovations.

text: Tropical shallow clouds are a major source of uncertainty in Earth's climate
sensitivity, especially through their spatial arrangement, which global climate
models do not represent. Efforts to understand their organization have partly
relied on classifying observed scenes, identifying four patterns as archetypal
regimes. Here we analyze geostationary satellite imagery of the western tropical
Atlantic using the L‐function, a tool based on point pattern theory that quantifies
cloud organization across spatial scales. Classical examples of the four patterns
show distinct L‐function fingerprints, revealing their characteristic clustering
and regularity scales and aiding physical interpretation. Yet, when evaluating
many scenes at fixed spatial scales, the L‐function distribution lacks the distinct
modes expected from discrete regimes. This is corroborated by analyses of other
organization indices employing diverse approaches, from inter‐cloud nearest‐neighbor
distances to fractal analysis. Implications for the parameterization of mesoscale
cloud organization in climate models are discussed.

text: 3I/ATLAS is the third interstellar object discovered to date, following 1I/‘Oumuamua
and 2I/Borisov. Its unusually high excess velocity and active cometary nature
make it a key probe of the Galactic population of icy planetesimals. Understanding
its origin requires its past trajectory through the Galaxy to be traced and the
possible role of stellar encounters to be assessed, both as a potential origin
and a perturber to its orbit. We integrated the orbit of 3I/ATLAS backward in
time for 10 Myr, together with a sample of Gaia DR3 stars with high-quality astrometry
and radial velocities, to identify close passages within 2 pc. We identify 93
nominal encounters, 62 of which are significant at the 2σ level. However, none
of these encounters produced any meaningful perturbation. The strongest perturber
Gaia DR3 6863591389529611264 at 0.30 pc and with a relative velocity of 35 km
s−1, imparted only a velocity change of ∣Δv∣ ≃ 5 × 10−4 km s−1 to the orbit
of 3I/ATLAS. Our results indicate that no stellar flybys within the past 10 Myr
and 500 pc contained in Gaia DR3 can account for the present trajectory of 3I/ATLAS
or be associated with its origin. We further show that 3I/ATLAS is kinematically
consistent with a thin-disk population, despite its large peculiar velocity.

text: Neural tube closure is a critical morphogenetic process in vertebrate development,
and failure to close cranial regions such as the hindbrain neuropore (HNP) leads
to severe congenital malformations. While mechanical forces such as actomyosin
purse-string contraction and directional cell crawling have been implicated in
driving HNP closure, how these forces organize local cell shape and motion to
produce large-scale tissue remodeling remains poorly understood. Using live and
fixed imaging of mouse embryos combined with cell-based biophysical modeling,
we show that these force-generating mechanisms are insufficient to explain the
reproducible patterns of cell elongation and nematic alignment observed at the
HNP border. Instead, we show that local anisotropic stress and cytoskeletal organization
are required to generate these patterns and promote midline cell motion. Our model
captures key features of cell shape dynamics and emergent nematic order, which
we confirm experimentally, including the alignment of actin fibers with cell shape
and enhanced midline cell speed. Comparative analysis with chick embryos, which
lack supracellular purse strings, supports a conserved link between tension generation
and cellular patterning. These findings establish a physical framework connecting
force generation, cell shape anisotropy, and tissue morphodynamics during epithelial
gap closure.

text: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been implicated in multiple signaling processes
in plants, but the underlying mechanisms and roles remain enigmatic. In this study,
we developed a method of live imaging of apoplastic ROS at the root surface. Distinct
signals, including auxin, extracellular adenosine triphosphate, and rapid alkalinization
factor 1 peptide, induce cytosolic calcium transients and apoplastic ROS bursts.
Genetic and optogenetic manipulations of Arabidopsis identified calcium transients
as necessary and sufficient for ROS bursts through activation of reduced nicotinamide
adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidases RBOHC and RBOHF. Apoplastic ROS
bursts are not required, but they do limit gravity-induced root bending. Root
bending is sensed by the stretch-activated calcium channel MCA1, leading to NADPH
oxidase activation. The resulting ROS production stiffens cell walls to facilitate
soil penetration. Apoplastic ROS thus provides a means to balance tissue flexibility
and stiffness to navigate soil.

text: "Colloidal fluids can exhibit complex phase behavior and determining phase
diagrams via experiments or computer simulations can be laborious. We demonstrate
that the dispersion relation ω(k), obtained from dynamical density functional
theory for the uniform density system, is a highly versatile tool for predicting
where in the phase diagram complex crystals form. The sign of ω(k) determines
whether density modes with wave number k grow or decay over time. We demonstrate
the predictive power by investigating the complex phase behavior of particles
interacting via core-shoulder pair potentials. With complementary Monte Carlo
simulations, we show that regions of the phase diagram where ωðkÞ has one or several
unstable (growing) wave numbers are also where crystalline phases occur. Going
further, by tuning these\r\nunstable wave numbers via the interaction-potential
and state-point parameters, we design systems with quasicrystals in the phase
diagram. We identify a system with a certain shoulder range exhibiting at least
ten different phases. Our general approach accelerates considerably the mapping
of complex phase diagrams, crucial for the design of new materials."

text: "Dielectric particles of the same material exchange electrical charge during
collisions or sliding contacts, yet the underlying charge-exchange mechanism is
still not understood. The fact that particles can become highly charged as a result
of this effect has significant consequences for many settings, both in nature
and industry, such as thunderstorms, volcanic eruptions, particle aggregation
during meteorite and planet formation, and the clogging of industrial granular
systems. Toward understanding these systems, great efforts have been made to develop
precise in situ measurements for particle charge, e.g., to determine ensemble
charge distributions or measure exchange during individual contacts. Here, we
present experimental results concerning the particle size scaling of the stationary-state
charge distributions of oxide particles in the sub-millimeter range. We measure
the charge distributions for large ensembles of monodisperse ZrO2:SiO2 composite
spheres, ranging from 172 to 545µm in diameter. These distributions are non-Gaussian
and collapse to a single master curve when plotted as functions of the surface
charge density Σ=\U0001D45E/4\U0001D70B\U0001D4452. X-ray fluorescence and atomic
force microscopy measurements show that the differences in the measured charge
distributions are not due to variations in chemical composition or surface roughness,
but rather to size alone. Our findings provide constraints on microscopic models
for charge exchange, namely that they should lead to steady-state distributions
that are non-Gaussian and scale in a specific way with particle size."

study, we developed a survey to collect the self-perception of animal care staff
(ACS) and laboratory technicians about their involvement in scientific planning
and conduct. Participants were contacted to complete an anonymous online questionnaire.
We obtained 850 responses, mainly from Europe: 564 from ACS and 286 from laboratory
technicians. Job satisfaction was assessed as positive by ACS and laboratory technicians
despite the low frequency of culture of care activities and mental health meetings.
Both groups expressed their desire to be trained in research planning and conduct;
however, regular training was not reported. In addition, the inability to act
on animal welfare concerns owing to experimental reasons was reported by both
groups. Over half of the participants felt valued and appreciated by the lead
scientists or animal facility manager; however, it is not clear how they are acknowledged,
as their names on the authors list or in the manuscript acknowledgments are barely
included. Our results indicated that involvement of ACS and laboratory technicians
in planning and conducting studies would improve their understanding of how experiments
are done, and therefore communication processes, work satisfaction, animal welfare,
and scientific quality. Finally, we provided recommendations to improve the engagement
of ACS and laboratory technicians in discussions about animal research planning
and conduct.'

d''agir sur les préoccupations relatives au bien-être animal pour des raisons
expérimentales a été signalée par les deux groupes. Plus de la moitié des participants

Wir erhielten 850 Rückmeldungen, hauptsächlich aus Europa: 564 von ACS und 286

von Pflegeaktivitäten und Treffen zum Thema psychische Gesundheit als positiv
bewertet. Beide Gruppen äußerten den Wunsch, in der Forschungsplanung und -durchführung
geschult zu werden, doch regelmäßig stattfindende Schulungen wurden nicht berichtet.
Außerdem wurde von beiden Gruppen vermeldet, dass sie aus versuchstechnischen
Gründen nicht in der Lage waren, auf Tierschutzbedenken zu reagieren. Über die
Hälfte der Teilnehmer fühlte sich von den leitenden Wissenschaftlern oder dem
Leiter der Tierhaltungseinrichtung geschätzt und anerkannt; es ist jedoch unklar,
inwiefern sie wirklich gewürdigt werden, da ihre Namen kaum in der Autorenliste
oder in den Danksagungen des Manuskripts aufgeführt sind. Unsere Ergebnisse deuteten
darauf hin, dass die Einbeziehung von ACS und LT in die Planung und Durchführung
von Studien ihr Verständnis für die Durchführung von Experimenten verbessern würde
– und damit auch Kommunikationsprozesse, Arbeitszufriedenheit, Tierwohl und wissenschaftliche

text: Pyridyl motifs equipped with N-substituents can be powerful ligands for catalysis,
yet their broader adoption is limited by the lack of a practical method to prepare
these scaffolds. We report a modular, robust, and versatile Buchwald–Hartwig amination
protocol that enables the rapid synthesis of bipyridine, phenanthroline, terpyridine,
and pybox ligands bearing dialkylamine, diarylamine, and heteroaromatic N-substituents.
These conditions streamline ligand library synthesis and will facilitate systematic
studies in catalysis and related applications.

text: Acidomycin is an anti-mycobacterial antibiotic with a unique mode of action,
targeting the biotin biosynthesis pathway. Despite being highly active against
mycobacteria in vitro, its development as an anti-tubercular agent has been hindered
due to suboptimal pharmacokinetics. Engineering of the acidomycin biosynthesis
may yield new analogues with improved pharmacological properties. Here, we describe
the identification of the acidomycin biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) in a Streptomyces
bacterium isolated from the rhizosphere of Edelweiss. Notably, the acidomycin
BGC is located in proximity to the genes for the biosynthesis of stravidins, secondary
metabolites targeting a different enzyme in the biotin biosynthesis pathway, and
two genes for streptavidins, proteins that strongly bind and sequester biotin.
The identity of the acidomycin BGC was confirmed via both gene knock-out and heterologous
expression, which suggested that the fatty acid required for the formation of
acidomycin's acyl chain is most likely scavenged from the biotin biosynthesis
pathway. CRISPR/Cas9-assisted knock-out of the cytochrome P450-encoding gene in
the acidomycin BGC resulted in a significant decrease in its yield but did not
abrogate the biosynthesis completely.

text: It is predicted that half or more of all cataclysmic variables (CVs) should
have evolved past the period minimum and now exist as so-called period bouncers
where a white dwarf should be accreting from a Roche lobe filling substellar companion.
However, this prediction stands in stark contrast to observations, where only
a few per cent of CVs are found in this evolutionary phase. A potential solution
to this discrepancy is that a magnetic field emerges from within the white dwarf
after the system has reached the period minimum. The transfer of angular momentum
from the spin of the white dwarf into the orbit then pushes the two stars apart,
detaching them for potentially billions of years. Here we present the discovery
of ZTF J021804.16+071152.93, a detached 0.69 +- 0.01 M, 19 MG magnetic white
dwarf plus 37 +- 5MJup brown dwarf binary with an orbital period of 1.7 h. The
kinematics of the system indicate that it is a high probability member of the
Galactic thick disc. However, this strongly disagrees with the much younger age
of the system obtained from the white dwarf parameters, implying that the system
may have been accreting in the past. This system is therefore consistent with
having detached as a result of the emergence of the magnetic field of the white
dwarf when the system was still mass transferring, and may represent the ultimate
fate for many (perhaps even most) CVs.

text: "Given a set A of n points (vertices) in general position in the plane, the
complete geometric graph \r\nKn[A] consists of all (n2) segments (edges) between
the elements of A. It is known that the edge set of every complete geometric graph
on n vertices can be partitioned into O(n3∕2) crossing-free paths (or matchings).
We strengthen this result under various additional assumptions on the point set.
In particular, we prove that for a set A of n randomly selected points, uniformly
distributed in [0,1]2, with probability tending to 1 as n→∞, the edge set of Kn[A]
can be covered by O(nlogn) crossing-free paths and by O(n√logn) crossing-free
matchings. On the other hand, we construct n-element point sets such that covering
the edge set of Kn[A] requires a quadratic number of monotone paths."

text: 'In a warming world of glacier changes, the scientific community has dedicated
increasing attention to debris-covered glaciers and their response to climate.
A variety of models with distinct complexity and data requirements have been developed
and widely used to simulate melt under debris at different sites and scales, but
their skills have never been compared. As part of the activities of the International
Association of Cryospheric Sciences (IACS) Debris Covered Glacier Working Group,
we present an intercomparison exercise aimed at advancing our understanding of
model skills in simulating ice melt under a debris layer. We compare 15 models
with different complexity at nine sites in the European Alps, Caucasus, Chilean
Andes, Nepalese Himalaya and the Southern Alps of New Zealand, over one melt season.
We run the models with measured meteorological data from automatic weather stations
and estimated or measured debris properties. We consider four main model categories:
(i) energy balance models that calculate melt by solving the physics of heat transfer
to the debris layer, but require a high amount of input data; (ii) a simplified
energy balance model; (iii) enhanced temperature-index models; and (iv) simple
empirical temperature-index models that have been extensively used given their
low data requirement but require calibration of their empirical parameters. Model
performance is evaluated using on-site measurements of sub-debris melt (for all
models) and surface temperature (for models based on the surface energy balance).
Our results show that physically-based energy balance models and empirical temperature-index
models perform in a distinct manner. At one end of the spectrum, simple temperature-index
models are accurate when recalibrated or when using site-specific literature parameters,
and show poor results when parameters are uncalibrated. At the other end, energy
balance models show a range of performance: the most accurate energy balance models
are those with the highest degree of complexity at the atmosphere-debris interface.
An important data gap emerged from our experiment: the poor performance of all
models at three sites was related to the poor knowledge of debris properties,
and specifically of thermal conductivity. Future work should focus on both: (i) consistent
data acquisition to evaluate existing models and support new model developments;
(ii) advancing models by accounting for processes such as debris-snow interactions,
moisture in the debris and refreezing. We suggest that a systematic effort of
model development using a common model framework could be carried out in phase
II of the Working Group.'

text: We explore the use of a photoacid in a chemical reaction cycle, which allows
for the controlled sol‐to‐gel transition of a saccharide aldehyde‐based self‐assembling
system. The modulation of the pH with light enables to generate chemical fuels
in situ, thus triggering monomer activation and gelation. Our efforts represent
a promising step toward dissipative self‐assembled systems with a higher degree
of spatiotemporal control.

text: The transport properties of nanofluidic channels are usually studied under
constant (DC) voltage or pressure driving. However, the frequency response under
sinusoidal (AC) drivings offers rich insights into the time-dependent transport
mechanisms. Inspired by recent electrochemical approaches, we investigate the
couplings between ionic and electronic transport under AC driving. We show that
conduction electrons of the channel walls participate in ionic current via capacitive
electrochemical coupling, defining a critical frequency and length scale where
electron-dominated conductivity emerges. We further analyze how electron–ion coupling
modifies electro-osmotic flows and demonstrate that fluctuation-induced momentum
transfer between the electrolyte and wall electrons produces distinct AC transport
signatures, depending on the charge carrier polarity. Altogether, we establish
a frequency-dependent transport matrix that couples ionic, electronic, and hydrodynamic
flows. These findings establish AC nanofluidic transport as a powerful probe of
interfacial phenomena under confinement and suggest new directions for engineering
nanofluidic functionalities through electron–electrolyte coupling.

text: The long-standing notion that genotypes map to phenotypes through simple one
gene–one trait relationships continues to shape both research in the life sciences
and public understanding, with implications for policy and funding priorities.
Yet this paradigm is increasingly recognized as inadequate for explaining continuous
phenotypic variation and the complex genetic architectures of the genotype–phenotype
map. Modern genetics emerged from the early 20th-century synthesis of Mendelian
and biometric schools of heredity, with R.A. Fisher demonstrating early on how
multiple discrete loci could collectively produce continuous variation. Despite
this fundamental insight, Mendelism—with its focus on single genes and standardized
genetic backgrounds—became the dominant framework, shaping current genetics research
and molecular biology as well as science education. The advent of large-scale
genomic data has revealed yet again the limitations of this reductionist approach.
Evidence from quantitative genetics now shows that most phenotypes arise from
complex networks of many interdependent genes and their dynamic responses to environmental
perturbations. Here we trace the historical roots of how Mendelian classical genetics
departed from the biometric school to create the current predominant paradigm
in genetics, despite fundamentally unresolved issues. Moving on from this one-sided
paradigm will require systematic development of integrative, evolutionarily grounded
experimental approaches that better capture the multigenic and context-dependent
nature of inheritance. Achieving such an extended perspective will require methodological
innovation, including advances in large-scale (e.g. automated) phenotyping. Dedicated
research programs will be necessary to advance a new era of genetic research into
the complex mechanisms underlying phenotypic variation.
acknowledgement: We thank a variety of further colleagues for the many inspiring discussions
on the nature of heredity, especially the workshops in Berlin. Special thanks also
to the Stellenbosch Institute for Advanced Studies (STIAS) to provide DT the leisure
and freedom to write up the first version of this perspective. Thanks also to three
reviewers who have helped to improve the manuscript. Two dedicated symposia on the
topic were funded by the Max-Planck Society.

text: "AM CVn stars are ultra-compact semi-detached binaries consisting of a white
dwarf primary and a hydrogen-depleted secondary. In this\r\npaper, we present
spectroscopic and photometric results of 15 transient sources pre-classified as
AM CVn candidates. Our analysis confirms\r\n9 systems of the type AM CVn, 3 hydrogen-rich
cataclysmic variables (accreting white dwarfs with near-main-sequence stars for
donors),\r\nand 3 systems that could be evolved cataclysmic variables. Eight of
the AM CVn stars are analysed spectroscopically for the first time,\r\nwhich increases
the number of spectroscopically confirmed AM CVns by about 10%. TESS data revealed
the orbital period of the AM CVn\r\nstar ASASSN-20pv to be Porb =27.282 min, which
helps to constrain the possible values of its mass ratio. TESS also helped to
determine\r\nthe superhump periods of one AM CVn star (ASASSN-19ct, Psh =30.94
min) and two cataclysmic variables we classify as WZ Sge stars\r\n(Psh =90.77
min for ZTF18aaaasnn and Psh =91.6min for ASASSN-15na).We identified very different
abundances in the spectra of theAM\r\nCVns binaries ASASSN-15kf and ASASSN-20pv
(both Porb ∼27.5min), suggesting different type of donors. Six of the studied
AMCVns are\r\nX-ray sources, which helped to determine their mass accretion rates.
Photometry shows that the duration of all the superoutbursts detected\r\nin the
AM CVns is consistent with expectations from the disc instability model. Finally,
we provide refined criteria for the identification of\r\nnew systems using all-sky
surveys such as LSST."

was made by the California Institute of Technology with funds\r\nfrom the National
Science Foundation, the National Geographic Society, the\r\nSloan Foundation, the
Samuel Oschin Foundation, and the Eastman Kodak\r\nCorporation. The Oschin Schmidt
Telescope is operated by the California\r\nInstitute of Technology and Palomar Observatory.
The UK Schmidt Telescope\r\nwas operated by the Royal Observatory Edinburgh, with
funding from the\r\nUK Science and Engineering Research Council (later the UK Particle
Physics\r\nand Astronomy Research Council), until 1988 June, and thereafter by the\r\nAnglo-Australian
Observatory. The blue plates of the southern Sky Atlas\r\nand its Equatorial Extension
(together known as the SERC-J), as well as the\r\nEquatorial Red (ER), and the Second
Epoch [red] Survey (SES) were all taken\r\nwith the UK Schmidt. Supplemental funding
for sky-survey work at the ST\r\nScI is provided by the European Southern Observatory.
