Thermo/hydration responsive shape memory polymers with enhanced hydrophilicity for biomedical applications (open access)

Thermo/hydration responsive shape memory polymers with enhanced hydrophilicity for biomedical applications

Article states that thiol-ene/acrylate shape memory polymers (SMPs) have sufficient stiffness for facile insertion and precision placement and soften after exposure to physiological conditions to reduce the mechanical mismatch with body tissue; as a result, they have demonstrated excellent potential as substrates for various flexible bioelectronic devices, such as cochlear implants, nerve cuffs, cortical probes, plexus blankets, and spinal cord stimulators. Here, the authors report a new strategy for designing SMPs with enhanced shape recovery properties and lower moduli than previously reported SMPs under physiological conditions without sacrificing stiffness at room temperature by introducing a hydrophilic monomer.

Assessing approaches to learning with nonparametric multidimensional scaling (open access)

Assessing approaches to learning with nonparametric multidimensional scaling

Article reports on a trace-based assessment of approaches to learning used by middle school aged children who interacted with NASA Mars Mission science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) games in Whyville, an online game environment with 8 million registered young learners. Differences in approach to learning were found illustrating the potential value of the methodology to curriculum and game-based learning designers as well as other creators of online STEM content for pre-college youth.

PharmaChain: A blockchain to ensure counterfeit‐free pharmaceutical supply chain (open access)

PharmaChain: A blockchain to ensure counterfeit‐free pharmaceutical supply chain

Article discusses how globalisation has facilitated different industries to eliminate geographical boundaries and equipped organisations to work collectively to produce goods. The authors of the article propose a novel Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) based transparent supply chain for PSC and proof-of-concept is implemented to analyse the scalability and efficiency of the proposed architecture.
