A new theory of brain development

Researchers suggest that cells descend from the same progenitor tend to remain near one another, forming a lineage-based mechanism to convey positional information. This theory could have far-reaching implications for biology and artificial intelligence, potentially solving fundamental mysteries of the mind.

New sensor technology enhances detection of tiny particles

A new type of sensor leverages exceptional points to achieve high sensitivity and reconfigurability. The novel design addresses limitations of traditional EP-based sensors by incorporating spoof localized surface plasmon resonators, allowing for dynamic reconfiguration of EP states across a wide frequency range.
