Noise, as an unavoidable stress (pressure) source in the modern life, affects animals in many ways, both behaviorally and physiologically. Behavioral changes may be driven by changes in hormone secretion in animals. When animals face with noise stress, the neuroendocrine systems, mainly the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, are activated, which promotes the secretion and release of stress hormones, and then leads to a series of behavioral changes.

- Researchers developed a new phosphine-based polymer (PPh-CHCP) that can photocatalyze atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) efficiently under sunlight or broad-spectrum light.
- This system allows for nearly complete conversion of monomers like acrylates using a wide range of light wavelengths, demonstrating effectiveness even in less-than-ideal weather conditions.
- The photocatalyst is recyclable and can produce large quantities of both homopolymers and block copolymers, making it a promising solution for large-scale industrial applications.
