Using seawater for large-scale electrolysis offers a highly promising route for sustainable energy systems, but aggressive chloride ions typically cause rapid degradation of conventional anodic catalysts. Researchers from Hainan University and Swinburne University of Technology have developed a self-stabilizing boron-doped high-entropy selenide for the anodic oxygen evolution reaction. By coupling dynamic valence oscillations for active-site protection with a robust selenate layer to repel chloride, this catalyst achieves over 1000 hours of continuous operation at industrial-level currents in a harsh seawater environment.

Researchers have developed an injectable supramolecular carrier that co‑encapsulates two hydrophobic anti‑inflammatory drugs within a hyaluronic acid matrix via Schiff‑base chemistry. The system achieves pH‑responsive release, suppresses inflammatory cytokines, promotes cartilage repair in a rat osteoarthritis model, and avoids the systemic toxicity of oral medications.

So far, quantum computers have been held back by their extreme sensitivity to errors and external disturbances. The longer a quantum operation takes, the greater the risk that computational errors will occur. Now, researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, in Sweden, have developed a new method that allows a wide range of advanced quantum operations to be carried out more than a thousand times faster. The breakthrough addresses a well-known bottleneck in the field and paves the way for fault-tolerant quantum computing.

Kinesin is a vital molecular motor that transports cargoes along microtubule tracks in the cell, but atomic structural dynamics of its guiding neck region have remained unresolved. Researchers performed massive all-atom molecular dynamics simulations on the supercomputer Fugaku to accurately model this neck region and observed its physical interactions with the microtubule surface. The study revealed that physical contact between the neck region and the track surface directs the motor to step forward with a counterclockwise bias, providing a structural foundation for understanding fundamental intracellular transport mechanics. 

This work presents the first demonstration of a parallel heterodyne light-induced thermoelastic spectroscopy (PH-LITES) sensor for high-speed and high-sensitivity simultaneous multi-gas detection. By synergistically combining signal enhancement at the physical layer with intelligent decoupling at the information layer, the sensor achieves ppb-level simultaneous and fast multi-gas detection based on a single quartz tuning fork (QTF), providing an important reference for the future development of rapid and highly sensitive multi-gas sensing technologies.
