06.14 2024NKU Team Develops Neuromorphic Artificial Antenna
The antennae are the primary sensory organs of insects, and can accurately perceive slight vibrations, magnetic field orientation, direction of gravity and chemical stimuli. Their perceptual sensitivity is comparable to that of human skin, and even outshine humans when it comes to some special functions. However, compared with mimicking the sensory organs of mammals, an urgent pending problem in the field of bionic electronics is how to simulate insect antenna – a highly sensitive and multi-func

05.23 2024NKU Team’s Photolithographic Micropatterning Manipulation Reveals Collective Cell Radial Ordered Migration
Collective cells are an important active mattersystem, and their ordered migration plays a key role in life processes such as embryonic development, tissue morphogenesis, and cancer invasion. Under normal physiological conditions, collective cells are often in a confined spatial environment, which regulate the dynamic spatiotemporal evolution of collective cell behavior from thetop down, thusaffectingthe differentiation and fate of cell tissues. Nowadays, emerging technologies represented by pho
