How to compete with robots by assessing job automation risks and resilient alternatives

Dario Floreano, Nicola Nosengo, Rafael Lalive, Fabrizio Schiano, William John Stewart, Davide Zambrano, Antonio Paolillo

The effects of robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) on the job market are matters of great social concern. Economists and technology experts are debating at what rate, and to what extent, technology could be used to replace humans in occupations, and ...

Inquiring the librarian about the location of memory

Gabriel Berdugo Vega

Where memories are stored in the brain is an age-old question in psychology and neuroscience alike. In particular, whether hippocampus-encoded memories are transferred to the cortex or remain hippocampus-dependent over time has not been definitely answered ...

Influence of Meteorological Conditions on Artificial Ice Reservoir (Icestupa) Evolution

Michael Lehning

Since 2014, mountain communities in Ladakh, India have been constructing dozens of Artificial Ice Reservoirs (AIRs) by spraying water through fountain systems every winter. The meltwater from these structures is crucial to meet irrigation water demands dur ...

Adaptive Task-Space Force Control for Humanoid-to-Human Assistance

Anastasia Bolotnikova

We envision a humanoid robot to serve as a source of additional motion-support forces in assistance for frail persons. In this context, we present a control strategy for a humanoid to adaptively regulate its assistive force contribution. First, we identify ...

Mesomelic dysplasias associated with the HOXD locus are caused by regulatory reallocations

Denis Duboule, Lucille Delisle, Christopher Chase Bolt

Mesomelic dysplasia, a severe shortening and bending of the limb, has been linked to rearrangements in the HoxD cluster in humans and mice. Here the authors engineer a 1 Mb inversion including the HoxD gene cluster and use this model to provide a mechanist ...

Achieving visible light-driven hydrogen evolution at positive bias with a hybrid copper-iron oxide|TiO2-cobaloxime photocathode

Kevin Sivula, Florent Alexandre Boudoire

H-2 is an environmentally-friendly fuel that would allow for a circular economy but its sustainable production, e.g. from solar energy and water, remains a challenge. A hybrid CuFexOy|TiO2-CoHEC (CoHEC = chloro([4,4 '-bipyridine]-2,6-dicarboxylic acid)bis( ...

Benzothiadiazole Aryl-amine Based Materials as Efficient Hole Carriers in Perovskite Solar Cells

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Cristina Roldán Carmona, Manuel Alejandro Méndez Agudelo, Cristina Rodriguez Seco

Four hole transport materials (HTMs) based on a benzothiadiazole (BT) central core have been synthesized and successfully employed in triple-cation mixed-halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs), reaching 18.05% solar to energy conversion efficiency. The synth ...

White-line evolution in shocked solid Ta evidenced by synchrotron x-ray absorption spectroscopy

Richard Gaal

Time-resolved x-ray absorption experiments have been performed on shocked tantalum. Using a single 100 ps synchrotron x-ray pulse, nanosecond-lived equilibrium states of shocked solid Ta have been measured by L-3-edge absorption spectroscopy. The energy sh ...
