Soft robots are a rapidly developing field, with their ability to mimic the movements and functions of living organisms opening up a wide range of applications. One key component of these robots are pneumatic actuators, which allow for bioinspired motion systems. However, controlling these pressure-activated soft robots has often relied on metallic valves and electric…

In a groundbreaking development, scientists have discovered that an analysis of 1,500 blood proteins can help predict the risk of developing dementia up to 15 years before an official diagnosis. The findings, reported in the journal Nature Aging, represent a significant step forward in the quest for a tool that can detect Alzheimer’s disease and…
