In both the US and EU, policymakers and government agencies are acknowledging theimportance of having access to repair options, particularly for vulnerable product users who depend on their products. As such, repair can play an important role as a resource for resilience, but research is missing. We propose that repair can act as a resource for resilience. A comprehensive, structured way to unders
Two decades into the young history of e-participation research, we aim to take stock of the state of this field in the light of three developments that we argue have substantial implications for research on electronic participation:(1) dissolving boundaries between online and offline spheres of political participation;(2) academic isolation of e-participation research from other research fields re
The incorporation of machine learning methods into proteomics workflows improves the identification of disease-relevant biomarkers and biological pathways. However, machine learning models, such as deep neural networks, typically suffer from lack of interpretability. Here, we present a deep learning approach to combine biological pathway analysis and biomarker identification to increase the interp
Finding alternative and sustainable ways to produce, store and convert energy is key for reducing fossil fuel-based CO2 emissions. In this transformation, hydrogen for energy storage and hydrogen-powered fuel cells for energy conversion can play important roles. However, storage of hydrogen itself is difficult and the concept of reversible liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs) has been proposed
Tactile feedback plays a vital role in inducing ownership and improving motor control of prosthetic hands. However, commercially available prosthetic hands typically do not provide tactile feedback and because of that the prosthetic user must rely on visual input to adjust the grip. The classical rubber hand illusion (RHI) where a brush is stroking the rubber hand, and the user's hidden hand synch
This article investigates solidarity as a concept and/or a norm of EU law from the perspective of functional constitutionalism. It asks how solidarity fits within the normative framework of the EU legal order if we understand this framework as being founded on a functional constitution.Under functional constitutionalism, the EU is understood as a purposive polity and the authority of the legal ord
In 303 Creative LLC et al. v Elenis, the US Supreme Court held that the petitioners were entitled to refuse to provide wedding website services in respect of same sex weddings, and to post a notice on their website stating that they would not provide such services.The case was framed as concerning the freedom of speech of the website designer (Ms Lorie Smith), although the main petitioner was not
Antibiotic resistance has become a serious threat to global public health and economic development. Rapid and accurate identification of a patient status for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) are urgently needed in clinical diagnosis. Here we describe the development of an assay method for activity fingerprinting of AMR β-lactamases using panels of 7 β-lactam antibiotics in 35 min. New Deli Metallo β

Red blood cell (RBC) and iron status biomarkers are commonly used in clinical diagnostics. However, interpretations of infant test results are inherently challenging. Modern well-defined comparative data based on presumably healthy term-born infants have mainly been lacking and interpretations could be further complicated by interference from frequent infections. Moreover, the trends that follow w
Background: A growing body of evidence shows that prenatal exposure to phthalates affects child development. Since many phthalates have been shown to alter endocrine signaling, they may influence reproductive development, neurodevelopment, and child behavior. Indeed, a few studies reported associations between prenatal phthalate exposure and gender-specific play behavior. However, evidence for thi
The ternary system didodecyltrimethylammonium bromide, 1-decanol, and water forms an extended reversed continuous phase of cubic symmetry at 25 °C. The cubic phase belongs to the space group Im3m, as shown by small-angle X-ray experiments. We present extensive deuterium NMR relaxation data from this cubic phase for 1-decanol, deuterated at the carbon adjacent to the hydroxyl carbon position. 2H sp
The continuous evolution of photon sources and their instrumentation enables more and new scientific endeavors at ever increasing pace. This technological evolution is accompanied by an exponential growth of data volumes of increasing complexity, which must be addressed by maximizing efficiency of scientific experiments and automation of workflows covering the entire data lifecycle, aiming to redu
Although sex and gender are recognized as major determinants of health and immunity, their role is rarely considered in clinical practice and public health. We identified six bottlenecks preventing the inclusion of sex and gender considerations from basic science to clinical practice, precision medicine and public health policies. (i) A terminology-related bottleneck, linked to the definitions of
Epileptogenesis is a complex process involving a multitude of changes at the molecular, cellular and network level. Previous studies have identified several key alterations contributing to epileptogenesis and the development of hyper-excitability in different animal models, but only a few have focused on the early stages of this process. For post status epilepticus (SE) temporal lobe epilepsy in p
