Noncentrosymmetric Ce${}_{3}$Bi${}_{4}$Pd${}_{3}$ has recently attracted tremendous attention as a strongly correlated topological semimetal candidate. Conflicting experimental results, however, argue for either a Weyl Kondo semimetallic or a narrow-gap Kondo insulating ground state. Using electrical transport measurements on bulk crystals and microstructure devices under hydrostatic pressure, the authors show that Ce${}_{3}$Bi${}_{4}$Pd${}_{3}$ …
