A research team from the Swire Institute of Marine Science (SWIMS) and the School of Biological Sciences of The University of Hong Kong (HKU) has helped address this question by developing an innovative mathematical model that allows conservationists to easily assess feeding strategies of different giant clam species. This knowledge can help conservationists to predict the future vulnerability of different giant clam species and identify those in need of timely protection. 

A research team at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, has developed new laser technology that could lead to tiny, cost-effective biosensors. The sensors integrate lasers and optics together on a centimeter-sized chip, which could move testing from hospitals to patients' homes. This, in turn, would free up hospital beds and reduce visits to clinics.

A research team led by Dr. Sung Mook Choi of the Energy & Environment Materials Research Division at the Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS), in collaboration with a team headed by Professor Seung-Hwa Lee at Changwon National University, has successfully designed and developed a proprietary non-precious metal oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalyst featuring a layered structure optimized for anion exchange membrane water electrolysis (AEMWE) environments.

Researchers at Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS have developed a promising machine learning algorithm capable of predicting survival and cause of death for patients with bladder cancer undergoing radical cystectomy.

The development of drug resistance, a natural consequence of cancer progression, has become a major obstacle to effective treatment. Due to the overexpression of drug resistance-related proteins and the distinctive properties of resistant cell membranes, achieving efficient internalization of nanomedicines into these cells remains highly challenging. Surface charge engineering has proven pivotal in nanomedicine design, with electrostatic interaction–mediated membrane anchoring of nanocarriers representing a critical breakthrough for advancing drug-resistant cancer therapy.

Flexible electronics is profoundly leading the wave of transformation in fields such as wearable devices, health monitoring, and intelligent robots, and material innovation is undoubtedly the core driving force behind this revolution. As a new type of material prepared by compounding liquid metals (LM) with other materials, LM thin films, with their unique properties, have become an ideal candidate in the field of flexible electronics preparation, laying a solid foundation for the vigorous development of flexible electronics technology.
