Congratulations to our 2025 India #TopCitedPaper Award winners, including those in our #ReviewArticle subject category. This category features research which finds that a new wave of #2D #carbon allotropes is emerging. Super-thin #CarbonMaterials that are similar to #graphene but have different shapes and properties. This is opening the door to exploring other #2DCarbon materials, and how we think about #carbon-based technologies. Published by Susmita Jana (University of Calcutta) and colleagues, in Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter. 🏆Discover the article, and more here: https://ow.ly/Kwcv50X7IuS #TopCited2025 #ScientificReviews #HighlyCitedResearch

Researchers at University of Birmingham and University of Sussex have introduced a method to extend the reach of gravitational wave detection, revealing previously hidden astrophysical events! Using cutting-edge optical cavity systems and atomic clock technologies, mid-range gravitational waves will now be detectable using instruments that fit on a laboratory table. How will this revolutionize #astrophysics? Find out here: https://ow.ly/c2Hg50X8517 #quantum

Last week, our Americas team partnered with Fairmount Park Conservancy to make a difference in their community! Volunteers from the team removed cages from trees that had outgrown them, weeded, and learned about local plants as well as the history of the area. It was a great opportunity to save the planet while deepening professional relationships - and a lot of fun!

We're proud to work with Not Impossible, an organisation on a mission to make publishing and the creative industries more accessible to young people from underrepresented backgrounds. As part of this collaboration, our Head of Content and Engagement Marketing, Claire Webber, recently took part in her first microplacement session. 💬 Claire said: “I had a really enjoyable session with Oluoma – she had some great questions prepared that covered different topics including my role and career, how she can approach interviews, and also my views on AI! I also found it really interesting to hear her experience of job-hunting in the current climate as a recent graduate.” At IOP Publishing, we believe that access and opportunity shouldn’t be impossible. This initiative supports our commitment to making the publishing industry more inclusive. #NotImpossible #CareersInPublishing #FutureTalent #EquityInAction

Recently published: Exploring model generalizability from a novel perspective Read, download, and cite: https://ow.ly/KMF250WMHP1 From Sunyang Wang, Baodi Yu and Fanyong Meng, Institute of Process Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences What’s the challenge? The black-box nature of machine learning models—especially neural networks—limits their adoption in #engineering. Therefore understanding the generalizability of ML models remains a crucial topic. This study introduces the concept of Compromise in Competition (CIC) from mesoscience to interpret ML generalizability. #MLInterpretability #GeneralizationTheory #Mesoscience #NeuralNetworks #AIinEngineering #IOPscience #OpenAccess #ResearchImpact #CICModel #MachineLearning

Female sawfly shows surgeons new way to make better cuts in patients. 🪰 Published in our Bioinspiration & Biomimetics journal, research lead by Martí Verdaguer Mallorquí at Heriot-Watt University reveals a new approach to precision surgery which is inspired by the plant-cutting technique of the female sawfly, pushing the boundaries of environmental and biological science. The natural world still has so many things to teach us that can enhance our lives. 🌿✨ 📖 Read more: https://lnkd.in/et68apmC
