Marking a breakthrough in the field of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), a team of researchers from UC Berkeley and UC San Francisco has unlocked a way to restore naturalistic speech for people with severe paralysis.

This work solves the long-standing challenge of latency in speech neuroprostheses, the time lag between when a subject attempts to speak and when sound is produced. Using recent advances in artificial intelligence-based modeling, the researchers developed a streaming method that synthesizes brain signals into audible speech in near-real time.

As reported in Nature Neuroscience, this technology represents a critical step toward enabling communication for people who have lost the ability to speak.

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a prominent method for delivering genes in vivo. Therapeutic delivery to target cells is achieved through full capsids containing the gene cargo. However, the presence of empty capsids in the AAV drug product can reduce therapeutic effectiveness, necessitating their detection at various stages of the AAV production process. Traditional methods for assessing the AAV empty/full (E/F) ratio are often slow, labor-intensive, and require significant optimization.

Consider a novel, rapid, and high-throughput approach for determining the AAV E/F ratio using Octet® Biolayer Interferometry (BLI) alongside Octet® AAVX Biosensors. This cutting-edge technique evaluates intact viral capsids and is perfect for screening both crude and purified samples, offering a quicker and more efficient workflow with results available in as little as 30 minutes.

In a remarkable leap forward for science, researchers at CERN have successfully created and observed top quarks—one of nature’s most elusive and unstable particles—inside a lab for the very first time. This breakthrough, announced by the ATLAS team at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), promises to reshape our understanding of the early Universe and the fundamental makeup of matter.

Thanks to breakthroughs in hydrogel material science, we now have material that functions similar to Star Wars Bacta.

Pedestrian crossings generally showcase the best in pedestrian behavior, with people naturally forming orderly lanes as they cross the road, smoothly passing those coming from the opposite direction without any bumps or scrapes. Sometimes, however, the flow gets chaotic, with individuals weaving through the crowd on their own haphazard paths to the other side.

Now, an international team of mathematicians, co-led by Professor Tim Rogers at the University of Bath in the UK and Dr. Karol Bacik at MIT in the US has made an important breakthrough in their understanding of what causes human flows to disintegrate into tangles. This discovery has the potential to help planners design road crossings and other pedestrian spaces that minimize chaos and enhance safety and efficiency.

In a paper appearing in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the team pinned down the precise point at which crowds of pedestrians crossing a road collapse from order to disorder.

When University of Texas at Dallas researchers tested a new surface that they designed to collect and remove condensates rapidly, the results surprised them. The mechanical engineers’ design collected more condensates, or liquid formed by condensation, than they had predicted based on a classic physics model.

The finding revealed a limitation in the existing model and inspired the researchers to develop a new theory to explain the phenomenon, which they outline in an article published online March 13 in the journal Newton.

The theory is critical to the researchers’ work to develop innovative surfaces for applications such as harvesting water from air without electricity.

University of Queensland scientists have cracked a long-standing puzzle in nuclear physics, showing that nuclear polarization, once thought to hinder experiments with muonic atoms, has a much smaller effect than expected.

This surprising result clears a major obstacle and paves the way for a new era of atomic research, offering deeper insights into the mysterious inner workings of atomic nuclei using exotic, muon-based atoms.
