Jan 25, 2022New High-Density Surface EMG Signal Quality Enhancement for Upper Limb ProsthesesTheir study are reported in the Biomedical Signal Processing and Control on Jan. 18. Myoelectric pattern recognition (PR) based strategies have been well investigated and applied as viable control methods for upper limb prostheses.However, transhumeral amputees often lack requisite... -
Jan 24, 2022Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Helps Protect Against Predator Attack: StudyA research team led by Dr. WANG Liping from the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology (SIAT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has reported a common circuit regulating both innate fear and REM... Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep brings about brief but periodic awakenings. In 1966, Dr. Frederick Snyder reported the "sentinel" function of REM could help animals prepare a fight or flight respons... -
Jan 24, 2022Novel Ways to Overcome Chemotherapeutic Drug Resistance in Liver CancerA research group led by Associate Prof. CHEN Liang at the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology (SIAT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences reported a novel means to overcome drug resistance in H... Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common form of liver cancer. Whereas surgical intervention is a beneficial therapeutic strategy only for early-stage HCC patients, targeted drugs show a p... -
Jan 17, 2022Intracellular Supramolecular Self-assembly Regulates Cellular FunctionThe review was published in Angewandte Chemie International Edition on Jan. 17. Supramolecular self-assembly based on noncovalent interactions is considered as a key strategy for introducing intracellular synthetic biocompatible macromolecules. The synthetic macromolecules res... -
Jan 13, 2022New Genome Editing Tools for Human Gut MicrobiomeThe research group led by Prof. DAI Lei at the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology (SIAT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, published their work “CRISPR/Cas-based genome editing for human ... Bacteroides is the most abundant genus in the human gut microbiome and is regarded as a “window” into the gut microbiome. Bacteroides species have been associated with various diseases, such as o... -
Jan 12, 2022Give Surgeon Real Tactile Feeling via Newly Fiber Bragg Grating-Based Force SensorA research team led by Prof. WANG Lei from the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology (SIAT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences recently developed a sensor based on Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sen... The practice of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has grown radically in popularity, since it has a number of advantages over conventional surgery which makes it appealing.However, some problems fou... -
Jan 05, 2022Engineered Adhesion Makes Programmed Self-assembly of Bacteria PossibleThe team engineered cells to display nanobodies or antigens on their surfaces and cultured these cells separately in liquid cultures. Mixing the two populations in large quantities generated proces... Researchers from the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology (SIAT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have reported the programmed self-assembly of bacterial populations by engineered adhesion.T... -
