Molecular Strategy Enables High Performance of Elastic Skin-inspired Electronics
Summary A Stanford University research team, led by Professor Zhenan Bao, has developed a novel strategy for creating flexible, stretchable, and durable skin-inspired electronics using a molecular design approach. The team introduced the covalently-embedded in-situ rubber matrix (iRUM) strategy, which enables high-performance field-effect transistors (FETs) with stretchable polymer semiconductors and dielectrics. This innovation ensures that […]

Tiger Tao’s team develops bioinspired intelligent sensory system for rescue and recovery work
Recognizing objects is among the most basic of survival skills for human beings and other animals. To date, artificial intelligence (AI) assisted high-performance object recognition is primarily visual however researcher Tiger H. Tao, Deputy Director of Shanghai Institute of Microsystems and Information Technology (SIMIT) and an investigator at the Tianqiao and Chrissy Chen Institute (TCCI), […]

A Microbial Compound in the Gut Leads to Anxious Behaviors in Mice
A Caltech-led team of researchers has discovered that a small-molecule metabolite, produced by bacteria that reside in the mouse gut, can travel to the brain and alter the function of brain cells, leading to increased anxiety in mice. The work helps uncover a molecular explanation for recent observations that gut microbiome changes are associated with […]
