Characterizing the Coefficient of Friction between a Capsule Robot and the Colon Background Traditional colonoscopy, while effective for assessing colon health, is highly invasive, causing discomfort and potential complications. To address this issue, researchers have developed capsule robots (CR) with active movement mechanisms to achieve colon in...

Space-Specific Mixed Excitation Technique for High Signal-to-Noise Ratio Spatial Encoding in Magnetic Particle Imaging Background Introduction Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) is an emerging, radiation-free tracer imaging technology that visualizes the spatial distribution of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIOs) to achieve high-sensiti...

Comprehensive Academic Report on a Scientific Paper In modern medicine, respiratory regulation is crucial for patients with respiratory dysfunction. However, currently used clinical positive pressure ventilators have issues such as long-term dependence and injury. While external auxiliary devices like the “iron lung” offer non-invasive alternatives...

Cross-Subject Brain-Computer Interface: Real-time Attention Decoding Based on Domain-Adversarial Training with Convolutional Neural Networks Academic Background Attention decoding plays a crucial role in our daily lives and its implementation based on electroencephalogram (EEG) has garnered extensive attention. However, due to significant inter-ind...

Hybrid Hydrogel-Magnetic Driven Capsule for Automatic Intestinal Microbiome Sampling Academic Background The gut microbiome is composed of a large and diverse community of microorganisms that significantly impact human health, including conditions such as cancer, diabetes, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Current methods for studying the gut m...

Academic Report: Research on a Biomimetic Visual Detection Model Based on Fractional Spiking Neuron Circuits In the fields of intelligent autonomous driving and unmanned aerial vehicles, quickly and effectively predicting collisions and triggering avoidance behaviors have significant application value. The Lobula Giant Movement Detectors (LGMDs) in...

A Method for Quantifying Cervical Elasticity During Pregnancy Based on Transvaginal Ultrasound and Pressure Measurement Background and Motivation Preterm birth (delivery before 37 weeks of gestation) is a major cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. Due to the high risks associated with preterm birth, many pregnant women with preterm symptoms n...

Dendritic-cell-targeting Virus-like Particles as Potent mRNA Vaccine Carriers Introduction In vaccine development, especially mRNA vaccines, significant achievements have been made in recent years. The mRNA vaccines developed by Moderna and Pfizer/BioNTech against COVID-19 have set a successful precedent, greatly advancing the development of mRNA v...

Bilingual Speech Neuroprosthesis Driven by Cortical Speech Representations Background In the development of neuroprostheses, research on decoding language from brain activity has primarily focused on decoding a single language. Thus, the extent to which bilingual speech production relies on unique or shared cortical activity between different langu...

Academic News Report: New MRI Technology Achieves Biological Fluorescence Imaging by Detecting Local Hemodynamics of Photosensitive Blood Vessels Academic Background Introduction Bioluminescent probes are widely used for monitoring biomedical processes and cellular targets in living animals. However, the absorption and scattering of visible light b...
