If the power goes out during a heat wave, there’s nowhere more dangerous to be than where people spend most of their time — indoors. A new study led by researchers at The University of Texas at Austin is the first to assess the indoor heat vulnerability for each single-family home in an entire city. The research used Austin as its testbed, but the approach can be applied to most cities in the U.S.

In a major leap for cancer care at the University of Missouri, the School of Medicine and MU Health Care have launched their first clinical trial using a leading-edge therapy manufactured on campus at the university’s research reactor. The achievement also showcases the breadth of research capabilities across campus to bring a radiopharmaceutical from development, through testing, to human clinical trials.

A research paper by scientists at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University developed an electromyography (EMG)-driven soft robot with electro-vibro-feedback (EVF-robot) for targeted somatosensory priming in W/H muscles.

A research paper by scientists at Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology presented the Marker-GMformer model, a marker trajectories-driven deep learning model designed for efficient and accurate continuous prediction of lower limb kinematics and dynamics.

A study finds that shelterbelts, trees planted as windbreaks, in Japan’s wet farmlands boost edge-dwelling bird population but cut grassland species by about 74%, with numbers rebounding roughly a kilometer away, revealing an overlooked conservation trade-off.
