Nighttime light data are widely used to track urbanization, economic activity, and human development, but existing satellite records are fragmented and inconsistent across time. 

A new artificial intelligence model, Aquila, helps computers read remote sensing images with greater detail and stronger language reasoning. 

Psychiatric disorders affect millions worldwide, but their diagnosis still relies on clinical observation instead of standard biological tests. In an attempt to identify reliable biomarkers, scientists in China have now launched the Brain-Gut Health Initiative, a large-scale longitudinal study combining neuroimaging, electrophysiology, microbiome sequencing, blood biomarkers, and clinical assessments across major psychiatric disorders. The findings revealed coordinated changes linking gut microbes, brain networks and symptoms—supporting the development of AI-assisted diagnosis and personalized therapies.
