Crossmodal Generative AI improves Multimodal Cancer Predictions
Researchers at Alan Turing Institute (UK's national institute for AI) and Indian Association for Clutivation of Science (India's oldest national research institute) have recently shown that crossmodal AI based generation of trascriptomics from digital pathology improves multimodal cancer predictions
A wireless and bioresorbable approach to temporary pain control
Postoperative pain is often managed with drugs despite clear limitations. We developed a soft wireless and bioresorbable nerve block that uses ultrasound activated triboelectric polymers to control pain signals temporarily and reversibly without electrodes wires or batteries.

Enhancing PM2.5 Air Pollution Forecasting with Novel Random Imputation Based on Hybrid RNN-Bidirectional GRU (nRI RNN-BiGRU) Model
The issue of air pollution is critical for both environment and global public health. It is crucial to develop accurate forecasting method to substantially mitigate the adverse health effects of air pollution. Missing data is common in dataset where specific observations or values are not recorded.
Spatio-Temporal Forecasting using a Hybrid BiGRU-1DCNN Model for PM2.5 Concentrations in Delhi, India (2018-2023) Across Multiple Monitoring Stations
Air quality deterioration, particularly the suspension of particulate matter over large urban areas, has emerged as a significant environmental concern. This issue, exacerbated by urbanization, industrialization, human activities, and climate change, poses serious health risks to populations.
Quantum-inspired neural networks for time-series air pollution prediction and control of the most polluted region in the world
Researchers in the field of quantum computing are primarily focused on quantum-inspired algorithms, which function effectively on classical computers while incorporating quantum principles. A significant challenge in heavily polluted areas is accurately predicting air pollution levels.
Behind the paper_ipRGC properties prevent light from shifting the SCN clock during daytime
Our body clock uses light from the eyes to stay in sync with day and night. Light usually resets this clock at night, not during the day. We found that this is partly because light-sensing cells in the eye limit how strongly they signal, helping keep daily rhythms stable.
Thiorphan reprograms neurons to regenerate after spinal cord injury
A Nature study reveals a small drug that helps adult neurons behave more like they did in early development—when growth was possible. In spinal cord injury models, it boosted nerve regeneration and improved hand function, pointing to a new repair strategy.
How a High-Performance Polymer Is Changing the Future of Orthopaedic Implants
Our latest open-access review article explores a compelling alternative — a high-performance polymer that may one day reshape how orthopaedic implantology is practiced worldwide.
