Behind the Paper
The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
Surveying the chemistry of pest-controlling fungi.
Fungi can be efficient as control agents against plant-pathogenic fungi and insects. But we know little about how they function. As a result, their use presents several challenges, ranging from inconsistent efficacy to concerns about potential negative effects on crops.
Thalamus: A practical platform for real-time multimodal data capture in clinical neuroscience
Thalamus is a real-time system for synchronizing neural and behavioral data across multiple devices, built to meet the demands of modern clinical neuroscience. In this post, we take a behind-the-scenes look at how the system was developed, and the practical challenges that motivated its design.
Fracture Resistance of Endodontically Treated Premolar Teeth Restored with PEEK Post and Biological Dentin Post: An In Vitro Comparative Study
Polyetheretherketone has a lower Young’s modulus (3–4 GPa)compared to dentin, and it can serve as a shock absorber, lowering the strains placed on the restoration and teeth. For the restoration of teeth that have had endodontic treatment, PEEK posts-and-cores may be a practical substitute.

Mass Scaling of Quantum Tunnelling in Hydrogen Bonds: From Analytical Models to Multidimensional Quantum Dynamics
We develop an analytical–numerical framework for quantum tunnelling in hydrogen bonds, revealing a universal scaling law where tunnelling splitting depends exponentially on the square root of effective isotope mass, consistent across 1D models and multidimensional quantum calculations.
