A transformative approach to clean hydrogen production is set to take center stage in an upcoming international webinar that bridges molecular innovation with industrial-scale decarbonization.

A research paper by scientists at the City University of Hong Kong proposed a hybrid model-based and online data-driven control method for a tendon-driven continuum robot, which requires no prior dataset collection or training. The method incorporates the Jacobian derived from the piecewise constant curvature model with online Jacobian error compensation using a Kalman filter.

A research paper by scientists at Waseda University presented a bioinspired surface texturing technique that mimics the microstructures of rose petals to enhance wettability, self-cleaning, and ISM sensitivity..

A review paper by scientists at Zhejiang University presented a comprehensive review of recent developments in the structural design of single-legged robots and systematically summarizes prevailing modeling approaches and control strategies..

Anthocyanins, the pigments that give blueberries their vivid coloration, are also recognized for their potential health benefits. 

The night-blooming cactus Epiphyllum oxypetalum is known for its brief yet powerfully fragrant flowers that bloom only for several hours at night. 

Preterm babies face greater health risks from the moment they are born. Their organs, immune systems, and metabolic pathways are not fully developed, making them more vulnerable to complications. Early identification of health risks becomes essential for improving survival and long-term development. A new study revealed that newborn genetic screening identified 94% of missed cases by the heel-prick test.

World Prematurity Day on Nov. 17 is an opportunity to raise awareness for the wider society that newborn genetic testing is a powerful new layer of protection. For preterm babies, who often present with overlapping symptoms, this early genetic insight gives clinicians a clearer path to faster, more targeted care.
