Measuring the One Health impacts associated with creating access to veterinary care before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Integrating community perceptions into One Health assessments is critical to understanding the structural barriers that create disproportionate health outcomes for community members, their pets, and the ecosystems that encompass them, particularly in historically marginalized and under-resourced communities. The validated One Health Community Assessment (OHCA) survey instrument was used to evaluate the associated impacts of The Humane Society of the United States' Pets for Life (PFL) programming on communities' perceptions of One Health. This evaluation took place across two phases, totaling four years.

3D-Architected Alkaline-Earth Perovskites.

3D ceramic architectures are captivating geometrical features with an immense demand in optics. In this work, an additive manufacturing (AM) approach for printing alkaline-earth perovskite 3D microarchitectures is developed. The approach enables custom-made photoresists suited for two-photon lithography, permitting the production of alkaline-earth perovskite (BaZrO , CaZrO , and SrZrO ) 3D structures shaped in the form of octet-truss lattices, gyroids, or inspired architectures like sodalite zeolite, and C buckyballs with micrometric and nanometric feature sizes.

White emission in 3D-printed phosphor microstructures.

Microscale functional materials permit advanced applications in optics and photonics. This work presents the additive manufacturing of three-dimensional structured phosphors emitting red, green, blue, and white. The development is a step forward to realizing additive colour synthesis within complex architectures of relevance in integrated optics or light-emitting sources.

Enhanced Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution from Water Splitting on TaO/SrZrO Heterostructures Decorated with CuO/RuO Cocatalysts.

Photocatalytic H generation by water splitting is a promising alternative for producing renewable fuels. This work synthesized a new type of TaO/SrZrO heterostructure with Ru and Cu (RuO/CuO/TaO/SrZrO) using solid-state chemistry methods to achieve a high H production of 5164 μmol g h under simulated solar light, 39 times higher than that produced using SrZrO. The heterostructure performance is compared with other TaO/SrZrO heterostructure compositions loaded with RuO, CuO, or Pt.

Measuring Changes in Perceptions of Access to Pet Support Care in Underserved Communities.

Understanding social, economic, and structural barriers to accessing pet care services is important for improving the health and welfare of companion animals in underserved communities in the U.S. From May 2018-December 2019, six questions from the validated One Health Community Assessment were used to measure perceptions of access to pet care in two urban and two rural zip codes.

A wafer-scale fabrication method for three-dimensional plasmonic hollow nanopillars.

Access to nanofabrication strategies for crafting three-dimensional plasmonic structures is limited. In this work, a fabrication strategy to produce 3D plasmonic hollow nanopillars (HNPs) using Talbot lithography and I-line photolithography is introduced. This method is named subtractive hybrid lithography (SHL), and permits intermixed usage of nano-and-macroscale patterns.
