Specific patterns of electrical activity in the hippocampus may indicate whether someone is about to misremember an event.
Researchers from Changchun University of Science and Technology (CUST) and City University of Hong Kong (CityU) have conducted a survey on the fabrication of flexible sensors using nanomaterials of different dimensions and the triggering methods of interaction between these sensors and virtual reality applications.
The review, published in the International Journal of Extreme Manufacturing (IJEM), highlights the recent advancements in nanomaterial-based flexible sensors (NMFSs) involving various nanomaterial frameworks such as nanoparticles, nanowires, and nanofilms.
Different triggering mechanisms for interaction between NMFSs and metaverse/virtual reality applications are discussed, e.g., skin-mechanics-triggered, temperature-triggered, magnetically triggered, and neural-triggered interfaces.

After his traumatic spinal cord injury in 2010, Drew Clayborn was motivated by the question, “How do I get back to doing life?” Since then, Clayborn finished high school, graduated college and started a nonprofit dedicated to providing resources and guidance to individuals and families affected by spinal cord injury. Resilience, exemplified by Drew, is a key factor to flourishing after spinal cord injury, according to recent Michigan Medicine research.
