This paper introduces a high-channel-count optogenetic system for deep-brain studies, achieving high spatial resolution in recording and stimulation with unprecedented channel density.

flexLiTE: flexible micro-LED integrated optoelectrodes for long-term chronic deep-brain studies

flexLiTE enables long-term chronic opto-electrophysiology in mice by integrating micro-LEDs and recording electrodes for neuronal recording and modulation.

Empowering Engineered Muscle in Biohybrid Pump by Extending Connexin 43 Duration with Reduced Graphene Oxides

This study shows that reduced graphene oxide prolongs connexin 43 expression in myoblasts, enhancing myogenesis and contraction force in engineered muscle, leading to improved performance in a biohybrid pump.

Long- and short-range bimodal signals mediate mate location and recognition in yellow fever mosquitoes

The paper investigates how light and sound signals mediate mate location and recognition in yellow fever mosquitoes, finding that light flashes and wingbeat sounds operate at long and short ranges, respectively.

Cheese or cheese infusions - Ecological traps for mosquitoes and spotted wing Drosophila

The paper tests cheese and cheese infusions as ecological traps for mosquitoes and spotted wing Drosophila, showing they attract adults and affect larval survival.
