Na-ion batteries are emerging as one of the most promising energy storage technologies, particularly for grid-level applications. Among anode candidate materials, hard carbon is very attractive due to its high capacity and low cost. However, hard carbon anodes often suffer a low first-cycle Coulombic efficiency and fast capacity fading. In...

The state of the knowledge for fault behavior in the northwest Himalaya and California varies dramatically. In the Pakistan and Kashmir Himalaya, few data constrain the role that individual active faults play in accommodating Indo-Eurasian convergence and the relative earthquake hazard across the region. By contrast, the San Andreas fault...

The origin of the late pre-industrial Holocene (LPIH) increase in atmospheric methane concentrations has been much debated. Hypotheses invoking changes in solely anthropogenic sources or solely natural sources have been proposed to explain the increase in concentrations. Here two high-resolution, high-precision ice core methane concentration records from Greenland and Antarctica...

The differentiation of precursor cells into mature adipocytes (adipogenesis) has been an area of increased focus, spurred by a rise in obesity rates. Though our understanding of adipogenesis and its regulation at the cellular level is growing, many questions remain, especially regarding the regulation of the metabolome. The 3T3-L1 cell...

The zebrafish has become an important model for cancer research. Several cancer models have
been established by transgenic expression of human or mouse oncogenes in zebrafish. Since it is
amenable to efficient transgenesis, zebrafish have immense potential to be used for studying
interaction of oncogenes and pathways at the organismal...

Impact of reproductive processes upon female health has yielded conflicting results; particularly in relation to the role of
reproduction-associated stress. We used the viviparous tsetse fly to determine if lactation, birth and involution lead to
damage from oxidative stress (OS) that impairs subsequent reproductive cycles. Tsetse females carry an intrauterine...
