It is of high demand yet challenging to boost the efficiency of solar driven hydrogen peroxide synthesis. Herein, the authors intergrade perovskite-based photocathode and oxidised buckypaper for unassisted solar H2O2 production with a solar-to-chemical conversion efficiency of ~1.463 %.

Here, the authors present Synthetic Wavelength Holography, an approach for Non-Line-of-Sight imaging. By exploiting spectral correlations in scattered light, the authors transform real world surfaces such as walls or scatterers into High-Resolution, Wide-Field-of-View imaging portals that provide holograms of objects obscured from view.

Ion storage rings allow reactions to be studied over orders of magnitude in time, bridging the gap between typical experimental and astronomical timescales. Here the authors observe that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon fragments produced upon collision with He atoms at velocities typical of stellar winds and supernova shockwaves remain intact up to second timescales, thus may play an important role in interstellar chemistry.

Attosecond pulse generation needs improvements both in terms of tunability and photon flux for next level attosecond experiments. Here the authors show how to control the HHG emission and its spectral-temporal characteristics by driving the IAP generation with synthesized sub-cycle optical pulses.

Bacterial biofilms exhibit complex spatiotemporal pattern formation. Here the authors report a collective cell reorientation cascade in growing Vibrio cholerae biofilms that leads to a differentially ordered, spatiotemporally coupled core-rim structure.

Deep fluids inside volcanoes disrupt the oscillations of signals produced by wind and sea. Imaging this disruption through space and time allows tracking hazardous fluid migrations leading to earthquakes before they reach the surface.

Phytoplankton are important primary producers. Here the authors investigate phytoplankton physiological changes associated with bloom phases and mixing regimes in the North Atlantic, finding that stratification and deep mixing shape accumulation rates by altering physiology and viral production.

Strong thunderstorms can reach the lower stratosphere and produce cloud-top blue emissions, affecting the exchange of greenhouse gases between the troposphere and stratosphere. Here, the authors reveal the direct link of blue emissions with the radio signals of one sort of intra-cloud discharges called NBEs.

Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) has been proposed as an electron donor for photosynthesis before water, however, the amount of H₂O₂ available on early Earth was thought to be limited. Here the authors propose a new abiotic pathway wherein abrasion of quartz surfaces would have provided enough H₂O₂.

Experiments show that when magma heats black shale wall-rock, fluids form and mobilize S and Cu, which can then concentrate and form base metal deposits. The fluids also attach to sulphide droplets and cause them to float in the host silicate melt.

Functional brain imaging with two-photon microscopy is limited by a tradeoff between imaging area and acquisition speed. Here, the authors present Quadroscope, a flexible microscope which allows for simultaneous video rate acquisition of four independently targetable brain regions across 5 mm.

Pupylation is a bacterial post-translational protein modification, where the small ubiquitin-like protein Pup is covalently attached to lysine side chains of target proteins, which is a reversible process and depupylation is catalysed by the depupylase enzyme, Dop. Here, the authors present crystal structures of Dop in different functional states, which together with biochemical experiments provide insights into the catalytic mechanism of this enzyme.

Perturbations of the cardiopharyngeal mesoderm can lead to congenital defects in individuals with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. Here the authors use single cell RNA-sequencing to identify a multilineage primed population within the mesoderm, marked by Tbx1, which has bipotent properties to form cardiac and branchiomeric muscle cells.

BRCA1 dysfunction sensitizes cancer cells to PARP inhibitors (PARPi) but the underlying mechanism is unclear. Here, the authors identify RNF19A as a determinant of PARPi sensitivity, showing that RNF19A ubiquitinates BARD1, negatively regulates the BRCA1-BARD1 complex, and inhibits homologous recombination.

The brain systems underlying fear experience are debated. Here the authors develop an fMRI-based neural signature for fear and show that fear is represented in distributed brain systems rather than isolated ‘fear centers’.

The emergence of acquired resistance to standard platinum-etoposide chemotherapy in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a common event. Here, the authors using paired pre-treatment and post-chemotherapy circulating tumour cell patient-derived explant (CDX) models reveal a mechanism of drug resistance in SCLC mediated by Notch and nitric oxide activation of soluble guanylate cyclase signalling.

Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive disease with limited therapeutic options. Here the authors perform an immunogenomic analysis of limited-stage SCLC, revealing a homogeneous mutational landscape, but limited T-cell infiltration and a cold and heterogeneous T cell repertoire.

Enhancers for endodermal organs are primed at the chromatin level prior to lineage induction by FOXA pioneer transcription factors; how pervasive this is, is not well known. Here the authors show that only a small subset of organ-specific enhancers are bound and primed by FOXA prior to lineage induction, whereas the majority do not undergo chromatin priming and engage FOXA upon lineage induction.

Evaluation of tumor response to antivascular endothelial growth factor therapies in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is limited because morphological change in tumor may occur earlier or be more critical than tumor size change. Here, the authors present an analysis utilizing a deep learning network to characterize tumor morphological change as well as tumor size changes for response assessment in mCRC patients.

Inflammasome regulation is not fully understood. Here the authors show that the early endosomal APPL1-Rab5 axis removes damaged mitochondria and then restricts the inflammasome response in macrophages, alleviating the inflammatory diseases.

Race and gender bias in healthcare contribute to health disparities. Here the authors show in an experimental setting that structured information sharing networks among clinicians can reduce race and gender bias in medical decisions.

The movements of individuals within and among cities influence critical aspects of our society, such as well-being, the spreading of epidemics, and the quality of the environment. Here, the authors use deep neural networks to discover non-linear relationships between geographical variables and mobility flows.

Adaptation to heat stress through the use of air conditioners has received increasing attention. Here the authors show that income and humidity adjusted temperature are common determinants for adopting air conditioning, but their relative contribution varies in relation to household characteristics.

Measurements of human interaction through proxies such as social connectedness or movement patterns have proved useful for predictive modeling of COVID-19. In this study, the authors develop a spatiotemporal machine learning model to predict county level new cases in the US using a variety of predictive features.

Flash droughts can have devastating impacts but are notoriously difficult to predict. This study identifies global hotspots of flash drought, driven by evaporative demand and precipitation deficits across varying geographic regions and crop-type, providing a framework for flash drought prediction.
