Topological phenomena at defects in acoustic, photonic and solid-state lattices by Lin, Zhi-Kang, Wang, Qiang, Liu, Yang, Xue, Haoran, Zhang, Baile, Chong, Yidong, Jiang, Jian-Hua

“…Topological lattice defects in topological materials offer a platform to explore a diverse range of phenomena, such as robust topological-bound states, fractional charges, topological Wannier cycles, chiral and gravitational anomalies, topological lasers and topological-defect-induced pumping and non-Hermitian skin effects. In this Perspective article, we survey the developments in this rapidly moving field from both theoretical and experimental perspectives, with an emphasis on the latter. …”

Cationic surfactants: a review by Gonçalves, Rui A., Holmberg, Krister, Lindman, Björn

“…The versatile properties of single- and double-chain cationic surfactants and other special cationics such as gemini, catanionic, bolaform, amino acid- and sugar-based surfactants, are presented and discussed together with skin toxicity and environmental considerations. The effects of cationic surfactant mixing with other surfactants, polymers, proteins, and DNA are also shown and examined. …”

Turing pattern formation in reaction-cross-diffusion systems with a bilayer geometry by Diaz, A, Krause, A, Maini, PK, Gaffney, E, Seirin-Lee, S

“…Nonetheless, the impact of tissue stratification in such systems is under-explored, despite its ubiquity in the context of a thin epithelium overlying connective tissue, for instance the epidermis and underlying dermal mesenchyme of embryonic skin. In particular, each layer can be subject to extensively different biochemical reactions and transport processes, with chemotaxis - a special case of cross-diffusion - often present in the mesenchyme, contrasting the solely molecular transport typically found in the epidermal layer. …”

Clinical, Ethical, and Legal Considerations Raised by Self-Reported Genital Mutilation Following Voluntary Cosmetic Labiaplasty by Metaxas, T, Earp, BD, Bader, D, Ghasemi, S, Solari, M, Abdulcadir, J

“…Genital modifications experienced as harmful, or that are performed without informed consent, should be studied in relationship to one another and evaluated with consistent principles, regardless of the skin color of the individuals concerned, their cultural, ethnic, or religious background, or the name given to the genital modification they underwent.…”

Coexistence of harmony and freedom in the Zhuangzi by Li, Luyao

“…Zhuangzian harmony can be described as “collaborative individuals harmonize by responding to others to achieve flourishing,” while Zhuangzian freedom is defined as “an individual is free with ming (命) to pursue one’s intention.” Finally, this thesis elucidates how the tensions between harmony and freedom in Zhuangzi are resolved and how harmony and freedom can mutually enhance each other.…”
