A research paper by scientists from Huazhong University of Science and Technology presented a jellyfish-inspired magnetic soft robot (J-MSR) capable of ultrafast swimming and seamless multimodal motion transitions in liquid environments.
The new research paper, published on Apr. 3 in the journal Cyborg and Bionic Systems, developed a jellyfish‑inspired magnetic soft robot (J‑MSR) that combining record‑breaking speed with seamless multimodal motion and functional integration.
A new study published in Research describes a deep-learning system designed to assist lumbar spine MRI at the point of image acquisition rather than only after scanning. The system, named Lumbar VNet Pro (LVP), was embedded directly into the MRI workflow and evaluated in a multicenter clinical setting. According to the study, the platform supports automated anatomical localization, scan-plane optimization, and real-time structural analysis during MRI scanning, offering a possible route toward more standardized and intelligent imaging workflows.
To investigate the role of KIF13B in SICD, a research team led by Prof. Xunde Xian from Peking University conducted a series of experiments using mouse models of sepsis and cultured cardiomyocytes.
