A new study led by Flinders University has found that being exposed to bright light at night can significantly increase the chances of developing serious heart problems, including heart attacks, strokes and heart failure.

Published in JAMA Network Open, the research is the largest study of its kind to explore how personal light exposure affects heart health using data from nearly 89,000 people in the UK.

From small soft machines to muscle-powered pumps, biohybrid robots are expanding possibilities in medicine and engineering. In a review for the International Journal of Extreme Manufacturing, Dr. Su Ryon Shin and her team at Harvard Medical School highlight advances in biofabrication, from 3D bioprinting to microfluidics that integrate living muscle cells with robotic systems. Their roadmap outlines how these technologies could move biohybrid robotics from lab concepts to real-world tools for regenerative medicine, drug testing, and disease modeling.
