Scientists have demonstrated a new way to probe biological microenvironments using tiny quantum sensors called spin qubits. By placing these sensors inside model cell membranes, they found the sensor's quantum 'relaxation' rate was over 30 times more sensitive to salt concentration changes than established methods.

Viral haemorrhagic fevers are a group of deadly diseases prioritised by global health organisations. While specific treatments like monoclonal antibodies are showing promise against viruses such as Ebola, major challenges in research and logistics mean effective therapies for many other VHFs remain elusive.

Scientists are optimising solar energy harvesting by utilising the tunable nature of Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) and Porous Organic Polymers (POPs). By refining the molecular backbones and pores of these materials, researchers can significantly enhance charge transfer and device performance in next-generation solar cells.
