Cross-catenation between position-isomeric metallacages
The study of cross-catenated metallacages, which are complex self-assembly systems arising from multiple supramolecular interactions and hierarchical assembly processes, is currently lacking. We report a cross-catenane formed between two position-isomeric Pt(II) metallacages in the solid state.

Defect induced giant electromechanical effects: the backstory
Barium Titanate is a well known ferroelectric and piezoelectric material, i.e. materials that strain with voltage. We show in this work that one can remove ferroelectricity in this material by placing defects, yet, hugely enhancing the electromechanical effects. This is useful in context of M/NEMS.
A Detour for Prostate Cancer Cell Survival and Growth
Second generation AR antagonists, abiraterone and enzalutamide, induce aberrant HGF/MET and Wnt pathways leading to increased XPO1 expression and ribosomal biosynthesis in double-null prostate cancer (DNPC). However, treatment with XPO1 and ribosomal inhibitors showed an improved antitumor response.
