Researchers develop first gas-solid hydride ion battery for efficient ambient hydrogen storage

Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy Sciences
Peer-Reviewed Publication

A research team led by Prof. CHEN Ping from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP) of the Chinese Academy ofSciences (CAS) developed the world's first gas-solid hydride ion prototype battery, which uses hydrogen gas and a metal asthe electrodes. The battery not only powers electrical equipment, but also enable highly efficient hydrogen storage under ambient temperature and pressure through an innovative hydrogen-electricity co-storage mechanism.

PKU researcher defines scientific boundaries for non-permanent carbon removal

Peking University
Peer-Reviewed Publication

Peking University, June 16, 2026: Planting trees is often seen as a simple way to "store carbon" and slow climate change. But what happens when that tree eventually dies and its carbon is released back into the atmosphere? Does the climate still benefit in the long run? Led by He Yue from Institute of Carbon Neutrality at Peking University (PKU), a new Nature study establishes a scientific framework to judge whether temporary carbon storage can deliver real climate benefits.

AI powered multi scale data integration paves the way for precision exercise biomedicine

Shanghai Jiao Tong University Journal Center
Peer-Reviewed Publication

A recent comprehensive review highlights that artificial intelligence, by integrating multiscale data from wearables, multiomics, imaging and largescale cohorts, can finally turn the “exercise is medicine” slogan into truly individualized clinical practice. This openaccess article entitled “Artificial intelligenceempowered multiscale data integration for precision exercise biomedicine” (DOI: 10.1515/teb20260009), was published in Translational Exercise Biomedicine (ISSN: 2942-6812), an official partner journal of International Federation of Sports Medicine (FIMS).

Turning sugarcane waste into a tool for managing barium pollution in flooded soils

Biochar Editorial Office, Shenyang Agricultural University

A study published in Biochar shows that biochar made from sugarcane straw could help scientists manage barium contamination in flooded soils, but its effectiveness depends strongly on how hot the biomass is heated during production.

Biochar and plant roots reshape soil microbes, revealing a hidden pathway for soil carbon change

Biochar Editorial Office, Shenyang Agricultural University

Soils store more carbon than the atmosphere and vegetation combined, making them a crucial part of climate change mitigation. Biochar, a carbon-rich material produced by heating biomass in limited oxygen, has attracted growing attention because it can remain in soil for long periods and may help stabilize soil carbon. But what happens when biochar is added to living, root-filled soil is more complex than simply “locking carbon away.”

Dynamic manipulation skill learning for tactile myoelectric prosthetic hands in tool handling

Beijing Institute of Technology Press Co., Ltd
Peer-Reviewed Publication

A research paper by scientists from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications designed a multimodal controller termed the tactile, kinesthetic, and electromyography (EMG) bionic gripping controller (TKE-BGC).

The new research paper, published on May. 13 in the journal Cyborg and Bionic Systems, developed a bioinspired control framework that dramatically improves prosthetic hand stability during such dynamic tasks.

Deep learning for classifying and cognitive profiling of subcortical vascular cognitive impairment

Beijing Institute of Technology Press Co., Ltd
Peer-Reviewed Publication

A research paper by scientists from Capital Medical University proposed a diﬀusion tensor imaging (DTI)-based DenseNet to identify SVCI from subcortical ischemic vascular disease (SIVD) and to profile multidomain cognitive risks.

The new research paper, published on May. 13 in the journal Cyborg and Bionic Systems, developed a deep‑learning framework that uses routine diffusion tensor imaging to both identify SVCI and profile an individual’s domain‑specific cognitive weaknesses.
