A simple, yet effective, method to increase the yield of gel chromatography separation of single-chirality carbon nanotubes
Preparing high-concentration individualized carbon nanotubes for industrial separation of multiple single-chirality species-Nature Communications
Large-scale production of single-chirality carbon nanotubes has long been a major challenge. Liu et al. report a simple, yet effective method to incre....
An AI-powered wearable skin
We report an artificial intelligence powered resistive skin that can disentangle a single biosignal into multiple useful biometric data.
Brainstem neuromelanin and iron MRI are novel imaging diagnostic markers for idiopathic and LRRK2 Parkinson’s disease.
Dopaminergic neuronal death in Parkinson’s disease is reflected by the loss of neuromelanin in substantia nigra and locus coeruleus. A novel automatic brainstem atlas of MRI neuromelanin-sensitive and iron images was used to differentiate Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 gene carriers (LRRK2-PD) and idiopathic Parkinson’s disease.
