The educational escape game integrates the codes of serious games into the development of nursing students' skills. Used within the framework of the psychopathological processes teaching unit, this method enables learners to appropriate their knowledge, thanks to the development of pedagogical objectives that blend with the mechanics of the game. The escape game is appreciated by students and encourages their commitment to the course.

Li-ion batteries are invaluable for portable electronics and vehicle electrification. A better knowledge of compositional variations within the electrodes during battery operation is, however, still needed to keep improving their performance. Although essential in the medical field, magnetic resonance imaging of solid paramagnetic battery materials is challenging due to the short lifetime of their signals.

In the last few decades Li-ion batteries changed the way we store energy, becoming a key element of our everyday life. Their continuous improvement is tightly bound to the understanding of lithium (de)intercalation phenomena in electrode materials. Here we address the use of operando diffraction techniques to understand these mechanisms.

Batteries for electrical storage are central to any future alternative energy paradigm. The ability to probe the redox mechanisms occurring at electrodes during their operation is essential to improve battery performances. Here we present the first report on Electron Paramagnetic Resonance operando spectroscopy and in situ imaging of a Li-ion battery using Li2Ru0.

Objective: Deregulated cell proliferation is a hallmark of cancer, and Ki67 immunostaining can be used to identify proliferating cells. Evaluation of cell proliferation may have utility as a biomarker of epithelial malignant transformation risk. To date, most analyses of Ki67 staining have been restricted to semiquantitative estimations of the degree of staining or the measurement of the fraction of Ki67-positive cells within the epithelium.
