Guide to Publication Policies of the Nature Journals
GUIDE TO PUBLICATION POLICIES OF THE NATURE JOURNALS Last updated on 30 April 2009. Editorial Policies NATURE JOURNALS' POLICIES ON PUBLICATION ETHICS Nature journals' authorship policy Being an author The Nature journals do not require all authors of a research paper to sign the letter of submission, nor do they impose an order on the list of authors. Submission to a Nature journal is taken by the journal to mean that all the listed authors have agreed all of the contents. The corresponding (submitting) author is responsible for having ensured that this agreement has been reached, and for managing all communication between the journal and all co-authors, before and after publication. Any changes to the author list after submission, such as a change in the order of the authors, or the deletion or addition of authors, needs to be approved by a signed letter from every author. Responsibilities of senior team members on multi-group collaborations The editors at the Nature journals assume that at least one member of each collaboration, usually the most senior member of each submitting group or team, has accepted responsibility for the contributions to the manuscript from that team. This responsibility includes, but is not limited to: (1) ensuring that original data upon which the submission is based is preserved and retrievable for reanalysis; (2) approving data presentation as representative of the original data; and (3) foreseeing and minimizing obstacles to the sharing of data, materials, algorithms or reagents described in the work. Author contributions statementsAuthors are required to include a statement of responsibility in the manuscript that specifies the contribution of every author. -
A Bioinspired and Hierarchically Structured Shape-Memory Material
ARTICLES https://doi.org/10.1038/s41563-020-0789-2 A bioinspired and hierarchically structured shape-memory material Luca Cera1, Grant M. Gonzalez1, Qihan Liu1, Suji Choi1, Christophe O. Chantre1, Juncheol Lee 2, Rudy Gabardi1, Myung Chul Choi2, Kwanwoo Shin3 and Kevin Kit Parker 1 ✉ Shape-memory polymeric materials lack long-range molecular order that enables more controlled and efficient actua- tion mechanisms. Here, we develop a hierarchical structured keratin-based system that has long-range molecular order and shape-memory properties in response to hydration. We explore the metastable reconfiguration of the keratin secondary struc- ture, the transition from α-helix to β-sheet, as an actuation mechanism to design a high-strength shape-memory material that is biocompatible and processable through fibre spinning and three-dimensional (3D) printing. We extract keratin protofibrils from animal hair and subject them to shear stress to induce their self-organization into a nematic phase, which recapitulates the native hierarchical organization of the protein. This self-assembly process can be tuned to create materials with desired anisotropic structuring and responsiveness. Our combination of bottom-up assembly and top-down manufacturing allows for the scalable fabrication of strong and hierarchically structured shape-memory fibres and 3D-printed scaffolds with potential applications in bioengineering and smart textiles. he growing demand of shape-memory devices in the fields of orders of magnitude greater than those of conventional systems16–20. civil engineering1, aerospace2, wearable technology3 and medi- This is achieved by starting from a non-destructive extraction of Tcal devices4,5 has galvanized research beyond the conventional keratin protofibrils from animal hair. -

Antisemitism 2.0”—The Spreading of Jew-Hatredonthe World Wide Web
MonikaSchwarz-Friesel “Antisemitism 2.0”—The Spreading of Jew-hatredonthe World Wide Web This article focuses on the rising problem of internet antisemitism and online ha- tred against Israel. Antisemitism 2.0isfound on all webplatforms, not justin right-wing social media but alsoonthe online commentary sections of quality media and on everydayweb pages. The internet shows Jew‐hatred in all its var- ious contemporary forms, from overt death threats to more subtle manifestations articulated as indirect speech acts. The spreading of antisemitic texts and pic- tures on all accessibleaswell as seemingly non-radical platforms, their rapid and multiple distribution on the World Wide Web, adiscourse domain less con- trolled than other media, is by now acommon phenomenon within the spaceof public online communication. As aresult,the increasingimportance of Web2.0 communication makes antisemitism generallymore acceptable in mainstream discourse and leadstoanormalization of anti-Jewishutterances. Empirical results from alongitudinalcorpus studyare presented and dis- cussed in this article. They show how centuries old anti-Jewish stereotypes are persistentlyreproducedacross different social strata. The data confirm that hate speech against Jews on online platforms follows the pattern of classical an- tisemitism. Although manyofthem are camouflaged as “criticism of Israel,” they are rooted in the ancient and medieval stereotypes and mental models of Jew hostility.Thus, the “Israelization of antisemitism,”¹ the most dominant manifes- tation of Judeophobia today, proves to be merelyanew garb for the age-old Jew hatred. However,the easy accessibility and the omnipresenceofantisemitism on the web 2.0enhancesand intensifies the spreadingofJew-hatred, and its prop- agation on social media leads to anormalization of antisemitic communication, thinking,and feeling. -

Rebranding “Made in India” Through Cultural Sustainability – Exploring and Expanding Indian Perspectives
REBRANDING “MADE IN INDIA” THROUGH CULTURAL SUSTAINABILITY – EXPLORING AND EXPANDING INDIAN PERSPECTIVES Thesis for Two year Master, 30 ECTS Textile Management Monica Boța-Moisin Raphael Schreiber Thesis Number: 2021.7.01 Title: Rebranding “Made in India” through Cultural Sustainability - Exploring and Expanding Indian Perspectives Year of publication: 2021 Authors: Monica Boța-Moisin and Raphael Schreiber Supervisor: Hanna Wittrock Abstract This exploratory study is a first attempt to translate the Indian cultural context from a socio- cultural, and legal perspective by identifying the values attributed to Indian textile craftsmanship by Indian textile and fashion stakeholders, and how their perspective is influenced by the global recognition and perception of Indian textile crafts and connotation of “Made in India”. At the same time the study investigates the meaning of “sustainability” in the Indian cultural context, in relation to textile craftsmanship, and how this relates to the Western concept of “sustainability”. Through field research in conjunction with a series of in- depth unstructured interviews, this study reveals that Cultural Sustainability is the dominating narrative in the Indian cultural context due to the prevalence of culturally embedded sustainability practices and the role of textile craftsmanship in sustaining livelihood, being a unique exercise of positioning Indian textile craftsmanship within a framework of cultural heritage as a valuable source of knowledge for sustainable practices in the fashion and textile industry. Unique about this study are the India-centric approach combined with the ethnicity of the subjects interviewed - who are, without exception, Indian nationals, whose work, voice and reputation are shaping India's contemporary textile craft-sustainability narrative (being referred to as the “Indian textiles and fashion elite”) and the framing of traditional craftsmanship from a legal perspective, introducing the notion of legal protection of traditional textile knowledge and traditional cultural expressions. -
