Epilepsy is a neurological condition marked by seizures. Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is a leading cause of drug-resistant epilepsy. Surgical removal of FCD lesions is the most effective treatment, which is heavily dependent on their precise localization and delineation.

In a study published in the Journal of Membrane Science, a research group led by Prof. Wan Yinhua from the Institute of Process Engineering (IPE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences propose a new zone-regulated interfacial polymerization strategy, aiming to fabricate acid- and alkali-resistant nanofiltration (NF) membranes with high separation selectivity for the lithium recovery from waste lithium batteries.

Since the first X-ray image of a comet was reported using an X-ray telescope in 1996, the investigation of charge exchange in collisions between highly charged ions and atoms or molecules has emerged as a hot research topic.

A research team has developed a chest X-ray vision-language foundation model, MaCo, reducing the dependency on annotations while improving both clinical efficiency and diagnostic accuracy. The study was published in Nature Communications.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the most common form of chronic inflammatory arthritis, characterized by synovitis and progressive destruction of bone and cartilage in the affected joints. Conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) are typically prescribed immediately after an RA diagnosis to minimize joint damage. However, some patients' poor response to standard treatments highlights the urgent need for new therapies.

A research group led by Prof. Cai Xinxia from the Aerospace Information Research Institute (AIR) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed a novel drug-loaded hydrogel-coated microelectrode array (MEA), which allows for long-term, high-quality detection of neural activity. The study was published in Biosensors and Bioelectronics.
