The asymmetric solvating design: a versatile electrolyte design strategy for micro-sized alloying anodes
Our work presents asymmetric electrolyte design, ie, the use of asymmetric solvating and lithium hexafluorophosphate salt to promote LiF interphase formation on micro-sized alloying anodes (Si, Al, Sn, Bi), achieving superior cycle performance for high-energy batteries using low-cost materials.
HPV vaccination and antibody-based surveillance: how much is enough for protection?

Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) based DNA/RNA aptamers enhance the efficacy of the deep learning model for the precise diagnosis to prostate cancer
We suggest replacing prostate-specific antigen (PSA) with targeted prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-aptamers in the deep learning (DL) model to effectively overcome the limitation of non-specificity of the biomarker in the differential diagnosis of prostate cancer.
Lighting the Path to Definitive Thyroid Cancer Detection
A cross-Atlantic collaboration between the University of Massachusetts Lowell (USA) and the Zurich University of Applied Sciences (Switzerland) combined expertise in optics and AI, to implement a rapid thyroid cancer diagnosis based on fluorescence polarization imaging and deep learning.
