Ultrasounds induce blood–brain barrier opening across a sonolucent polyolefin plate in an in vitro isolated brain preparation

Researchers demonstrate that ultrasound treatment opens the blood-brain barrier exclusively under the ultrasound beam, suggesting a promising solution for targeted drug delivery to the central nervous system. The use of a biocompatible polyolefin plate allows for reversible disruption of the barrier.

INRiM demonstrates a new technique for improving long-distance quantum key distribution in a real field

Researchers at INRIM demonstrate a novel method for enhancing long-distance quantum key distribution by leveraging coherent laser interferometry, single-photon technologies, and quantum metrology. This breakthrough enables lower error rates and increased message length, paving the way for more efficient QKD protocols.
