In a first, Penn engineers sent quantum signals over commercial Verizon fiber-optic cables using the same Internet Protocol that powers today’s web. Their silicon “Q-chip” bundles quantum and classical data into standard IP packets, correcting errors on the fly, showing how a future "quantum internet" could run on existing infrastructure.

The research faculty at Hackensack Meridian Center for Discovery and Innovation (CDI), in collaboration with teams at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Weill Cornell Medicine, have developed a new experimental system called Transmission Simulation System (TSS) that replicates the airborne transmission of TB–by simulating the human cough–with unparalleled realism and never-before-seen precision.

UC San Diego Health performs the world’s first personalized cervical spine surgery using AI and 3D-printed implants for a patient’s unique anatomy.

The accumulation of these algae on beaches can harm health, tourism, fishing, and biodiversity. They are usually collected and disposed of in landfills, but a study by Brazilian researchers has found a use for the biomass: to produce lightweight ceramic clay aggregates.Large quantities of brown algae have been washing up on beaches in northern Brazil, the Caribbean, and the United States.

Researchers from the Institute of Process Engineering (IPE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in cooperation with Shenzhen Second People's Hospital, have developed a novel exosome-based therapeutic agent for treating traumatic CNS injuries. This treatment can alleviate neuronal apoptosis, restore glial homeostasis, and remodel glia-neuron networks, offering potent therapeutic benefits in murine (mouse) TBI and SCI models.
