Wearable neuromorphic devices could enable low-power sensing and health-monitoring technologies, but many existing architectures rely on external power sources. Researchers have developed a flexible, self-powered neuromorphic device that combines a triboelectric nanogenerator with an ion-gel-gated transistor to convert mechanical movement into electrical spikes that regulate synaptic behavior. The device reproduces hierarchical memory and spike-rate-dependent learning, highlighting its potential for future wearable neuromorphic applications.
MIT researchers used artificial intelligence to create more stable, heat-resistant RNA vaccines.
A review traces One Health from historical disease-control lessons to today’s interconnected threats and proposes an “interface-resilience” model. The model links spillover pressure, microbial community stability and governance connectivity to systemic health risk, offering a framework for earlier warning, cross-sector surveillance and preventive, data-driven health governance.
Researchers found that a polyphenol-rich Cistus salviifolius extract was particularly active against dermatophytes, including Trichophyton rubrum and Microsporum canis. Published in Journal of Ethnopharmacology, the study also found reduced fungal load and tissue invasion in a human epidermis model, supporting further research into controlled topical formulations.
Bentham Books announces the release of Biosensing Innovations for Health and Disease Management, a timely reference exploring how biosensors are transforming disease diagnosis, monitoring and treatment from the nanoscale to the clinic.
A research team led by Kyushu University have developed a new water-soluble and metal-free molecule that could be detected by both fluorescence imaging and utilized as an MRI contrast agent. The team modified the luminescent organic radical tris(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl) methyl (TTM) to make it water-soluble. The new molecule produced deep-red fluorescence in water and enhanced the contrast of MRI phantom images by approximately 2.5 to 4.5 times stronger than that of previously reported water-soluble TTM radicals.
A new AI tool can identify aging patterns in blood stem cells by analyzing DAPI-stained nuclear images and chromatin architecture. It may accelerate the discovery and testing of cellular rejuvenation strategies.
