Recently updated COVID-19 mRNA vaccines encode the spike protein of the omicron subvariant XBB.1.5 and are recommended for patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) on immunosuppressive treatment. Nonetheless, their immunogenicity in patients with IBD against rapidly expanding virus variants remains unknown.

The generation of small electron probes is the basis for various techniques in which such a probe is scanned across a sample, and special probe shapes like vortices can be desirable, e.g., to gain insight into magnetic properties. 

C₆₀ fullerenes encapsulated between graphene sheets were investigated by aberration-corrected high-resolution transmission electron microscopy at different temperatures, namely about 93 K, 293 K and 733 K, and by molecular dynamics simulations. We studied beam-induced dynamics of the C₆₀ fullerenes and the encapsulating graphene, measured the critical doses for the initial damage to the fullerenes and followed the beam-induced polymerization. We find that, while the dose

Spherical high quality, industrial-relevant LNMO materials developed. LNMO/electrolyte interface stabilized with borate-based interphase layer. Borate-modified LNMO exhibits superior electrochemical performance. The primary aging mechanism stems from LNMO/electrolyte interface instability.

Physiologically relevant human models that recapitulate the challenges of solid tumors and the tumor microenvironment are highly desired in the chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell field. We developed a breast cancer-on-chip model with an integrated endothelial barrier that enables the transmigration of perfused immune cells, their infiltration into the tumor, and concomitant monitoring of cytokine release during perfused culture.
