Both a bioweapon and a hoax: the curious case of contradictory conspiracy theories about COVID-19

Marija Petrovic et al.

Summary: This study aims to explore the psychological profile of COVID-19 conspiracy theorists. The findings show that a portion of respondents endorse contradictory conspiracy theories, and conspiracy mentality and doublethink are related to this endorsement. Those who endorse contradictory conspiracy theories are more intuitive, prone to confusion, less rational, and doublethink plays a significant role in predicting their endorsement.

The Mediating Roles of Medical Mistrust, Knowledge, Confidence and Complacency of Vaccines in the Pathways from Conspiracy Beliefs to Vaccine Hesitancy

Xiaoning Zhang et al.

Summary: This study identified pathways from conspiracy beliefs to COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy in China, showing direct and indirect effects on vaccine hesitancy through medical mistrust, confidence, complacency, and knowledge of vaccines. Both direct and indirect pathways were recognized as intervention targets to reduce COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy.

Cell-free chemoenzymatic starch synthesis from carbon dioxide

Tao Cai et al.

Summary: Researchers have developed an artificial starch anabolic pathway (ASAP) in a cell-free system for starch synthesis from CO2 and hydrogen, achieving a significantly higher rate than traditional methods. This approach paves the way for future chemo-biohybrid starch synthesis from CO2.
