No One Wants To Be A Parasitologist: The Shrinking Field of America's Least Favorite Animals by Richter, Hannah

“…Parasites have a bad rap. Most people think of them as scary, gross, or both, but they are also diverse creatures that have evolved in and on every animal and ecosystem on the planet. …”

Ligand effect on switching the rate-determining step of water oxidation in atomically precise metal nanoclusters by Liu, Zhihe, Tan, Hua, Li, Bo, Hu, Zehua, Jiang, De-en, Yao, Qiaofeng, Wang, Lei, Xie, Jianping

“…Herein, we employ atomically precise Au25 nanoclusters with different ligands (i.e., para-mercaptobenzoic acid, 6-mercaptohexanoic acid, and homocysteine) as paradigm electrocatalysts to demonstrate oxygen evolution reaction rate-determining step switching through ligand engineering. Au25 nanoclusters capped by para-mercaptobenzoic acid exhibit a better performance with nearly 4 times higher than that of Au25 NCs capped by other two ligands. …”

The formation of a carbon nanotube–graphene oxide core–shell structure and its possible applications by Dong, Xiaochen, Xing, Guichuan, Chan-Park, Mary B., Shi, Wenhui, Xiao, Ni, Wang, Jing, Yan, Qingyu, Sum, Tze Chien, Huang, Wei, Chen, Peng

“…Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and electrical characterization suggest that SWCNTs are completely wrapped by GO nano-sheets. The spontaneous formation of such a core–shell structure is due to the strong pi–pi stacking interaction between the two materials. …”

Lab-to-Market Design of an Electrodialysis-Based Home-Scale Water Desalination System by Floryan, Marie, Bowers, Quinn, Sternberg, Zachary, Gembali, Sahas, Goyal, Akshita, Bessette, Jonathan, Honarparvar, Soraya, Winter, Amos

“…Two critical design modules within the desalinator are explored — the system integration and fluid reversal mechanism and the electrodialysis stack end cap analysis. We developed a model framework that will output the validity of end cap designs based on established design requirements, designed fluid reversal mechanisms for distinct markets, and fabricated a prototype desalination cabinet that fits within the EFL’s design constraints. …”
