Cover Feature: Unravelling Structural Mysteries of Simple Organozinc Alkoxides (Chem. Eur. J. 18/2021)

Unravelling the mysteries of collagen and cicatrix after myocardial infarction.

In fictional murder mysteries the person responsible for the crime is often the one least likely to be involved. In contrast, in real life, the culprit is usually the most obvious candidate right from the start. In this particular case, the myocardial collagen matrix is the suspect (and as I shall illustrate, a likely culprit) responsible for at least some of the complications that occur after ...

Organozinc Coordination Chemistry and Catalytic Effects of Organozinc Coordination Compounds

A review of the present state of organozinc coordination chemistry. with special emphasis on compounds of the type RZnX is given. Their preparation as well as some factors determining their structure and stability are discussed. Certain organozinc coordination compounds have been found to be effective catalysts for cyclo-oligomerization and polymerization reactions. in particular of oxygen-cont...

Cover Feature Physiological Computing

Brain−computer interfaces (BCIs) hold great promise for improving information delivery and preserving user attention, but this promise has not yet translated to practical use. A prototype BCI that optimizes email notifications in noisy, complex environments, CARSON combines multiple measures from the brain to predict both cognitive workload and message relevancy to determine the optimum time to...
