A team from China Agricultural University has developed a novel synergetic cooling and charging strategy for high-power direct current fast charging in electric vehicles. Published in Engineering, the approach uses a gallium-based liquid metal flexible charging connector (LMFCC). This new solution aims to overcome the challenges of thermal shocks and inefficient cooling during high-current charging, with promising results in improving charging system performance.

A review in Engineering explores organ preservation, which is a critical area due to the global organ shortage. Current methods like static cold storage and machine perfusion have limitations. Cryopreservation shows promise, but challenges remain. The research details the history, techniques, and prospects for different organs, aiming to improve preservation and address the shortage.
