A new perspective published in Biological Diversity links plant functional traits to ecological resilience, offering a more precise way to forecast how ecosystems will respond to climate change.

A review paper by scientists from Tianjin University presented light on brain-on-a-chip interfaces (BoCIs)—a groundbreaking technology that fuses lab-grown biological neural networks with electronic systems to enable bidirectional information exchange.

Review re-maps multi-view learning into four supervised scenarios and three granular sub-tiers, delivering the first unified blueprint for researchers to navigate classification, clustering, incomplete views and hybrid techniques.

DynIMTS replaces static graphs with instance-attention that updates edge weights on the fly, delivering SOTA imputation and P12 classification accuracy for streaming irregular multivariate time series.

A research paper by scientists from Liaoning Cancer Hospital & Institute, The First Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University, and other institutions proposed a hollow mesoporous carbon (HMC) nanoparticle prepared via the sacrificial template method, featuring a porphyrin-like structure that enables efficient singlet oxygen generation and synergistic sono-immunotherapy for pancreatic cancer.

The new research paper, published on May 9 in the journal Cyborg and Bionic Systems, presented the preparation, characterization, and therapeutic application of MOF-derived HMC nanoparticles, and demonstrated their potential to enhance sono-immunotherapy efficacy by inducing tumor cell apoptosis and activating the immune

 Anti-forgetting representation learning method reduces the weight aggregation interference on model memory and augments the representation performance.

The complex fluid–structure interaction underlying blood flow through vessels has proved challenging to analyze both numerically and experimentally. Addressing this gap, researchers developed a new experimental platform that uses polarized light to directly visualize stress fields in artificial blood vessels and in the flowing blood analogue in real time. Their findings reveal how stress is distributed during pulsating flow and could help design safer devices and improve the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

This review systematically summarizes recent research on co-processing biomass with petroleum streams via fluid catalytic cracking and hydrotreating, addressing feedstock properties, catalyst performance, and pilot-scale projects.
