A research paper by scientists at Beijing Tiantan Hospital established a mechanistic framework for the optimization of SCS parameters, thereby advancing personalized neuromodulation strategies for the promotion of consciousness recovery.

The research paper, published on Apr 23, 2026 in the journal Cyborg and Bionic Systems.

A research paper by scientists from Southern University of Science and Technology developed a near-infrared (NIR) light-activated biomimetic nanomotor for targeted nitric oxide (NO) delivery and synergistic cancer therapy.

The new research paper, published on Apr. 24 in the journal Cyborg and Bionic Systems, developed a new light‑activated nanomotor platform combines photothermal therapy, chemodynamic therapy, and nitric oxide (NO) gas therapy in one tiny, tumor‑hunting vehicle.

In January 2026, the team led by Huang Wei, Zhao Chen and Lei Yiting from the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, in collaboration with the team of João F. Mano from the University of Aveiro, published a review article in Research entitled "Metabolism-Regulating Microspheres: Design Principles, Therapeutic Applications Across Multisystem Diseases, and Future Perspectives".

Modern technologies face overlapping challenges from electromagnetic interference, fire risk, heat buildup, and noise. Researchers developed a lightweight, bio-based aerogel to address these issues simultaneously. Using cellulose combined with metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) and controlled carbonization, they created a porous material that absorbs microwaves, reduces flammability, insulates heat, and dampens sound. The multifunctional performance is achieved with low filler content, demonstrating a sustainable strategy for advanced protective materials across multiple demanding applications.

A Research review reframes antimicrobial peptides as multifunctional regulators that may connect infection, inflammation, and amyloid pathology across major human diseases.
