Scientists from Sichuan University have developed a new platform that combines large language models and quantum computing to predict Salmonella antimicrobial resistance. Their research, published in Engineering, aims to address the inefficiencies of traditional prediction methods and the challenges posed by high-dimensional data and sample imbalance.

As the world races toward carbon neutrality, electric vehicles (EVs) have emerged as a cornerstone of sustainable transportation, particularly in developing nations like China. However, simply switching to EVs isn't enough—how we drive these vehicles significantly impacts their ecological benefits. Researchers have now developed an innovative approach using "graph spectrums" to visualize and analyze driving behaviors, revealing the hidden relationships between driving patterns and energy consumption in electric vehicles.

As the world transitions from fossil fuels to clean energy storage systems, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have become increasingly vital across multiple industries. While larger battery structures offer promising solutions for enhanced energy density, they present significant challenges in electrolyte filling and wetting processes. Researchers from the Tsinghua University have now conducted groundbreaking research to understand the complex relationship between electrode microstructure and electrolyte wetting, addressing a critical bottleneck in battery manufacturing.

A new review paper explores the potential of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) as an innovative therapy for Helicobacter pylori eradication. With antibiotic resistance on the rise, FMT offers a promising alternative to traditional treatments. The study highlights FMT's role in modifying gut microbiota, reducing adverse effects, and enhancing treatment efficacy. Future research aims to optimize protocols and further investigate FMT’s mechanisms in combating H. pylori infection.

On April 10, Tsinghua University Press (TUP), the leading university press in China, and ResearchGate, the professional network for researchers, has announced an expansion of its Journal Home partnership, which was the first of its kind with a Chinese publisher last year. This expansion more than doubles TUP’s coverage, now including 11 open access titles.

A research paper by scientists at The Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine presented the application of Ultrasound Localization Microscopy (ULM) for monitoring the progression of Type 2 Diabetes and assessing the efficacy of anti-cytokine immunotherapy.

A new study in Engineering shows that a biomass-based carbon aerogel named BCA-600 can be used in solar-driven photothermal conversion technology. It can efficiently dehydrate oily sludge and purify oily water, while also having the potential to reduce carbon emissions in the petroleum industry.

A paper published in Science Bulletin provides a detailed investigation of a series of six 2D D-A COFs to optimize the compatibility of D and A units for photocatalytic H2O2 synthesis.
