In this article, the authors created CuSbS₂ solar cells. They discovered that the cells' efficiency was affected by the formation of MoS₂. By incorporating a layer of single-walled carbon nanotubes, however, they were able to prevent MoS₂ formation and increase the device's efficiency.

The density of stomata, or stomatal index, in plant leaves is correlated with the plant's rate of photosynthesis, and affected by the plant's climate. In this paper, authors measure the stomatal index of five plant species to derive their rates of photosynthesis. These results could help track changes in plants' photosynthetic rates with changing climate.

The authors looked at energy efficient ways to generate small nitrogenous compounds.

The authors examined the effect of varying glucose concentrations on cut rose longevity.

The authors looked at whether they could induce the formation of new neurons from astrocytes via the upregulation of a microRNA (miR-124a). They found that upregulation of miR-124a started transdifferentiation of neurons, but was not enough to lead to full conversion of astrocytes to neurons.

The authors computationally screened potential ALDH1 inhibitors, for use as potential cancer therapeutics.

Improving the classifier of the difficulty level of Sudoku.

This study investigated the impact of pH on the efficiency of calcium phosphate, used as a drug delivery agent.

In 2021, over 20 million people died from cardiovascular diseases, highlighting the need for a deeper understanding of factors influencing heart failure outcomes. This study examined multiple variables affecting mortality after heart failure, using random forest models to identify time, serum creatinine, and ejection fraction as key predictors. These findings could contribute to personalized medicine, improving survival rates by tailoring treatment strategies for heart failure patients.

Here, in an effort to identify alternatives to oil-based plastic, the authors sought to investigate the effects of plasticizers on the mechanical properties and chemical composition of gelatin bioplastic matrices. Through measurements of their tensile strength and elongation at break, along with FTIR spectroscopy, they identified 3% w/v polyethylene glycol film as having the best performance in their study..
