Jeonbuk National University researchers develop an AI model for personalized blood glucose monitoring
Jeonbuk National University, Sustainable Strategy team, Planning and Coordination DivisionPatients with Type 1 diabetes (T1D) require accurate and consistent monitoring of their blood glucose levels. Over the past decade, AI models have been explored to tackle this challenge; however, inter-patient variability and large data volumes remain key challenges. In a new study, researchers present BiT-MAML, a model-agnostic algorithm aimed at personalized blood glucose prediction of patients with T1D. This approach overcomes the limitations of existing models and enables precise predictions in real clinical settings.

Biomimetic coral reef structures drive breakthroughs in microwave absorption materials—trimetal LDH and MXene self-assembled composite materials achieve efficient electromagnetic wave attenuation
Tsinghua University PressElectromagnetic radiation interferes with the operation of electronic devices and poses a threat to human health, while traditional microwave absorbing materials are difficult to meet the core requirements of being "thin, light, wide and strong". Inspired by the structure of coral reefs, a Chinese research team has designed a ZnNiCo-LDH/MXene composite material. Through biomimetic porous structures and high-density heterojunction engineering, it achieves an electromagnetic reflection loss of -49.6 dB at a thickness of 1.35 mm and a radar cross-section suppression of -39.57 dB · m². This breakthrough provides a brand-new approach to solving the problems of electromagnetic pollution and military stealth technology.

TCM phenomics 2.0: The integration with digital medicine
China Association of Chinese Medicine, eTMAs an innovative integrated practice in the field of digital traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), TCM Phenomics 2.0 deeply integrates the core technologies and values of digital medicine. Leveraging cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence and medical digital twins, it addresses the developmental bottlenecks of the first-generation TCM phenomics, and constructs a systematic closed-loop diagnosis and treatment system. It not only upgrades TCM diagnosis and treatment toward digitization and standardization, but also builds a pivotal bridge for the integration of TCM and Western medicine, pioneering an entirely new paradigm for the advancement of precision medicine.

Tinder and visual identity: a UOC study reveals the nine types of user profile photos
Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC)Choosing a Tinder profile picture seems like a free, personal and creative act. But to what extent is that true? A new study developed by the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC) reveals that, far from being unique, most users opt for one of a very limited number of visual strategies. The research, conducted by Alejandro García Alamán, a member of the CIRCLE Lab and course instructor at the Faculty of Psychology and Education Sciences, identifies nine standardized types of profile that are systematically repeated on these kinds of platforms.
The study, based on an analysis of 1,000 real Tinder profiles in the Barcelona area, was published in The Journal of Sexual Medicine and combines psychological methods with data analysis and machine-learning techniques.
