Szeged researchers accelerate personalized medicine with AI-powered 3D cell analysis
HUN-REN Szegedi Biológiai KutatóközpontPeer-Reviewed Publication
Researchers at the HUN-REN Biological Research Centre, Szeged, Hungary, have developed an artificial-intelligence-assisted technology capable of analyzing up to one hundred patient-derived cell samples simultaneously.
The new method, described in Nature Communications, could significantly accelerate drug development and advance the field of personalized medicine.

Geophysical-machine learning tool for continuous subsurface geomaterials characterization
Shibaura Institute of TechnologyPeer-Reviewed Publication
Traditional geotechnical investigations provide data only at discrete borehole locations, leaving vast areas uncharacterized. This spatial gap often leads to unforeseen ground conditions during construction, causing costly delays, design modifications, and occasionally catastrophic failures. Now, a novel integrated geophysical-machine learning approach, using k-means clustering technique, by a team of researchers from Shibaura Institute of Technology provides continuous subsurface characterization, enabling evidence-based decision-making throughout project lifecycles.

Hanyang University researchers develop novel facet guided metal plating strategy, improving stability anode-free metal batteries
Hanyang University Research Strategy Planning TeamPeer-Reviewed Publication
Anode-free metal batteries offer high energy densities, but suffer from dendritic growth and short circuits, arising from non-uniform metal deposition. To address this, researchers from South Korea have developed a new facet-driven metal plating strategy that employs a facet-oriented zinc (Zn) host with a physicochemically polished surface to ensure uniform, horizontal Mg growth during plating, preventing dendrite formation and improving stability.
