A research team led by Professor Hyun Ghang Jeong from the Department of Psychiatry at Korea University College of Medicine (Korea University Guro Hospital), in collaboration with the research team at Geovision Inc., has published the results of a large-scale validation study investigating the feasibility of early detection of self-harm behavior using artificial intelligence (AI) in psychiatric wards. The study was published in the internationally renowned journal Scientific Reports.

Traditional electrolyte research has long centered on the solvation behavior of lithium-ions (cation), focusing on improving lithium ion transport dynamics by optimizing solvent or salt concentrations. As batteries evolve toward higher energy density, wider operation temperature ranges, and extended cycle lifespan, this “cation-centered” solvation approach has encountered limitations: unstable electrode/electrolyte interfaces, poor lithium-ion transport dynamics, and inadequate adaptation across broad temperature ranges. Unlike cations acting as passive charge carriers, anions become active regulators of electrolyte performance by modulating solvation structures, governing interfacial reactions, and optimizing transport mechanisms. Anion chemistry unlocks this active regulatory capability, offering more fundamental and comprehensive solutions for high-energy-density batteries electrolyte design.

As manipulated videos become increasingly difficult to detect with the naked eye, a new study presents an artificial intelligence–based system capable of identifying tampered video frames with high precision, offering a powerful tool to combat misinformation and digital fraud.

A new study reveals an innovative and sustainable way to protect crops from toxic heavy metals by transforming invasive plants into powerful biochar filters and combining them with advanced nanomaterials. The research shows that this dual strategy can significantly reduce cadmium contamination in wheat while improving plant growth and resilience.

A new study reveals how engineered biochar can dramatically improve the removal of toxic pollutants from water by harnessing the power of persistent free radicals. The research offers a promising pathway for developing low cost, high efficiency materials for environmental cleanup.

A new study shows that combining biochar with beneficial microbes can significantly speed up composting of municipal solid waste and improve the quality of the final product, offering a promising solution for sustainable waste management.
