A one-pot procedure to synthesise aryldifluoroboranes, ArBF, from bench-stable arylsilanes is presented. These ArBF react conveniently with aryllithium reagents to form unsymmetrical ArAr'BF and BArAr'Ar'' in high yield. Examples of all three classes of borane have been characterised crystallographically, allowing for elucidation of geometric and crystal packing trends in crystalline ArBF.

The quality control of RNA has become increasingly crucial with the rise of mRNA-based vaccines and therapeutics. However, conventional methods such as LC-MS often require specialized equipment and expertise, limiting their applicability to high throughput experiments. Here, we optimize a previously characterized RNA integrity biosensor, that provides a simple colorimetric output, using Design of Experiments (DoE).

Neuromodulation with low-intensity focused ultrasound (LIFUS) holds significant promise for noninvasive treatment of neurological disorders, but its success relies heavily on accurately targeting specific brain regions. Computational model predictions can be used to optimize LIFUS, but uncertain acoustic tissue properties can affect prediction accuracy. The Monte Carlo method is often used to quantify the impact of uncertainties, but many iterations are generally needed for accurate estimates.

Most walking organisms tend to have relatively light limbs and heavy bodies in order to facilitate rapid limb motion. However, the limbs of brittle stars (Class Ophiuroidea) are primarily comprised of dense skeletal elements, with potentially much higher mass and density compared to the body disk. To date, little is understood about how the relatively unique distribution of mass in these animals influences their locomotion.

With the rapid growth of internet technologies, session-based recommendation systems have emerged as a key paradigm in delivering personalized recommendations by capturing users' dynamic and short-term preferences. Traditional methods predominantly rely on modeling the sequential order of user interactions, deep learning approaches like recurrent neural networks and Transformer architectures. However, these sequence-based models often struggle in scenarios where the order of interactions is ambiguous or unreliable, limiting their real-world applicability.

High efficiency and eco friendliness, proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) have become a good solution to cleaner energy solutions. However, due to the electrochemical complexity of PEMFCs and the limitations of existing optimization methods, accurately estimating PEMFC parameters to achieve optimal performance is still challenging. In this work, we propose a hybrid optimization algorithm, SCPSO, combining Particle Swarm Optimization with Mixed Mutant Slime Mold to improve precision, consistency, and computational efficiency in PEMFC parameter optimization.
