Minoritized Communities in Iran : The Struggle for Unconditional Equality
Kin cognition and communication : What talking, gesturing, and drawing about family can tell us about the way we think about this core social structure
When people talk about kinship systems, they often use co-speech gestures and other representations to elaborate. This paper investigates such polysemiotic (spoken, gestured, and drawn) descriptions of kinship relations, to see if they display recurring patterns of conventionalization that capture specific social structures. We present an exploratory hypothesis-generating study of descriptions pro
Identification and characterization of antigen-specific t-cells in viral infections
Identification and characterization of CD8+ T-cells is important to determine their role in protecting and clearing viral infections. Here we provide details of the peptide-MHC (pMHC) tetramers-based approach to identify antigen-specific T-cells in human and murine samples. This method provides ex vivo quantifica-tion and functional characterization of T-cells reactive to specific viral antigens d
Flow characterization of the Mach 5 hypersonic nozzle of VKI-H3 wind tunnel
The operational map of the H3 Mach 6 blowdown wind tunnel, at the von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics (VKI), is extended towards lower Mach numbers with a new axisymmetric contoured nozzle to achieve Mach 5 testing conditions. Following the design, manufacturing, instrumentation and integration of the Mach 5 nozzle, an extensive commissioning campaign is initiated. The flow investigations rely

Characterization of genetic variants of GIPR reveals a contribution of β-arrestin to metabolic phenotypes
Incretin-based therapies are highly successful in combatting obesity and type 2 diabetes1. Yet both activation and inhibition of the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor (GIPR) in combination with glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor (GLP-1R) activation have resulted in similar clinical outcomes, as demonstrated by the GIPR–GLP-1R co-agonist tirzepatide2 and AMG-133 (ref

“I Want Meat!” : Gendered Eating and Anthropocentric Fighting in One Piece
This chapter foregrounds the fictional and factual relations that inform contemporary human-animal entanglements in manga and anime through the series One Piece. The epic journey of the ‘Straw Hat Crew’ in search for freedom and empowerment is characterised by its multispecies cast, subversive themes, and social commentary. However, by examining its depictions of gender and multispecies relations
Improving hydrological modelling in cold regions using satellite remote sensing and machine learning techniques
Water resources are fundamental to life, ecosystems, and human development. In an era of climate change and increasing water scarcity, effective management of these resources is crucial, particularly in cold regions where glaciers and snow play vital roles in hydrological cycles. Understanding and accurately modelling these complex systems is essential for sustainable water resource management, cl

Cryogenic Ferroelectricity of HZO Capacitors on a III-V Semiconductor
Non-volatile cryogenic memories are crucial for realizing energy-efficient and scaled quantum computing systems. In this letter, we evaluate the cryogenic performance of an HZO-based ferroelectric capacitor (FeCAP) with a compound semiconductor (InAs) as the bottom electrode. We demonstrate that near identical remnant polarization can be obtained at 14 K compared to room temperature by increasing
Unreliable V2X communication in cooperative driving : Safety times for emergency braking
Cooperative driving is a promising paradigm to improve traffic efficiency and safety. In congested traffic scenarios, such cooperation allows for safe maneuvering and driving with small inter-vehicle spatial gaps. The vehicles involved coordinate their movements in real-time and continuously update each other about their maneuver execution status by means of Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communicati
Physical Meteorology
A salient aspect of the tropics is the prevalence of deep convection. It spans much of the depth of the troposphere, due to the positive buoyancy of cloudy updrafts warmed by latent heating from condensation. Cells of deep convection transfer heat, moisture and momentum to upper levels. They are crucial for the large-scale atmospheric circulation.Most precipitation from tropical systems is from de
