A research paper by scientists at the Soochow University proposed a novel magnetically actuated device based on a hybrid electromagnetic coil and permanent magnet control system.

The research paper, published on Jun. 24, 2025 in the journal Cyborg and Bionic Systems, presented a hybrid magnetic actuation system that extends the functional capabilities of miniature ferrofluidic robot (MFR) through synergistic multi-physical interactions.

A research paper by scientists at the Shanghai University proposed an innovative approach to object property perception utilizing triboelectric–magnetoelastic sensing.

The research paper, published on Jul. 2, 2025 in the journal Cyborg and Bionic Systems, presented a multimodal tactile sensing device (MMTSD) based on triboelectric–magnetoelastic, which has anthropomorphic tactile sensation. This MMTSD effectively interfaces the triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) array with the MEG through silica gel, enabling it to stably perceive the properties of objects within an open environment.

A research paper by scientists at the Harbin Institute of Technology proposed a novel centimeter-scale quadruped piezo robot. The robot’s locomotion is generated by multi-dimensional vibration trajectories at the feet, which are produced through a novel built-in actuation method.

The research paper, published on Jul. 22, 2025 in the journal Cyborg and Bionic Systems, presented a novel centimeter-scale quadruped piezoelectric robot with high integration and strong robustness, which promises to bring new perspectives for the construction and application of centimeter-scale robots.

A team of scientists from Southern University of Science and Technology has published a paper highlighting the importance of human exploration in the three deeps – deep space, deep sea, and deep Earth. Their paper is published in the journal Ocean-Land-Atmosphere Research on September 11, 2025.

The main research focus of professor Sun laboratory is to define the role of Cullin RING ligases (CRLs) and protein neddylation in regulation of tumorigenesis and other biological processes.
