Researchers have achieved a remarkable 26.49% power conversion efficiency in perovskite-organic tandem solar cells by using isopropanol to optimise the rear subcell. This development addresses previous energy losses and paves the way for high-performance, flexible photovoltaics.
Researchers are looking beyond rigid silicon to create hardware that mimics the messy efficiency of the human brain. By utilising organic electrochemical transistors, scientists hope to bridge the gap between biological wetware and artificial computing. This review explores how these flexible, ion-sensitive devices could redefine how machines sense and process information.
The body's blood vessels act as a strict border control, often blocking medicines from reaching their targets. A new review details how engineering nanoparticles to mechanically reprogramme these linings could turn a lucky leak into a predictable path for treatment.
Researchers have developed ECG-aBcDe, a method that translates raw electrocardiogram signals into a text-like code compatible with standard AI models. By treating heartbeats as a language, the system improves interpretability and performance without requiring complex architectural changes.
Researchers have identified specific brain patterns in the Anterior Cingulate Cortex that enable mice to coordinate actions. When AI agents were trained on similar tasks, they spontaneously developed remarkably similar internal strategies.
Chronological age fails to predict health outcomes because individual organs deteriorate asynchronously. This review identifies specific static and dynamic genetic drivers that explain this variability, proposing a shift toward organ-specific biomarkers for precision healthcare.
A systematic review of multimodal neuroimaging indicates that Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) drives distinct structural and functional brain alterations. The evidence points to a specific pattern of injury driven by hypoxia and inflammation, distinguishing this decline from Alzheimer's disease.
Researchers have developed a method to synthesize single-atom catalysts at room temperature using the electrochemical reactions inside lithium-ion batteries. This approach achieves high metal loading and stability, bypassing the need for energy-intensive high-temperature processes.
Chronic diseases trigger a specific, genetically programmed shutdown in immune cells rather than simple fatigue. This review outlines the metabolic and epigenetic shifts involved, suggesting that reversing this state requires more than just stimulating the immune system.
Despite aggressive management of 'bad' cholesterol, heart attacks persist, driven by overlooked fats in the blood. Genetic evidence now identifies triglyceride-rich lipoproteins as active culprits rather than passive bystanders, prompting a shift toward targeted therapies. While new inhibitors show potent biological effects, their ability to save lives is still being tested.
Researchers subjected four common aquaculture materials to simulated marine aging to quantify their degradation rates. The data indicates that polypropylene cables undergo the most severe embrittlement and fragmentation, suggesting they are a primary contributor to plastic pollution in fishery environments.
