LLM‐Integrated Human–Robot Interaction System for Microrobots

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This paper proposes an LLM‐based control framework for guiding microrobots using human natural language. This framework can convert the natural human speech into safe and executable command sets for reliable navigation in complex environments. The experimental results show high accuracy and robustness in task performance, demonstrating the potential of

Mitochondrial Dysfunction Unravels the Potential Molecular Link Between Night Shift Work‐Related Circadian Disruption and Elevated Blood Pressure in Human and Mouse Models

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This diagram illustrates that night shift work disrupts circadian clock genes (like CLOCK, BMAL1) in both humans and mice. This disruption leads to mitochondrial dysfunction (imbalanced fusion/fission proteins) and increased oxidative stress, which is identified as the primary mechanism ultimately causing elevated blood pressure.

Pharmacological Inhibition of FKBP51 Mitigates Early Life Adversity‐Induced Social Deficits in Male Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Early life adversity triggers persistent social subordination and brain‐wide molecular dysregulation. Pharmacological inhibition of the stress‐mediator FKBP51 during the adversity period prevents these long‐term deficits and restores normative social hierarchy.

Synergistic Interface Engineering via Buffer Layer and UVO Treatment for High‐Performance PbS Quantum Dot Near‐Infrared Photodiodes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A dual‐interface strategy combining a solvent‐orthogonal Poly‐TPD buffer with UV–ozone tuning of PbS‐EDT reconstructs interfacial energetics and defect chemistry in PbS CQD photodiodes. The optimized interface suppresses shunt‐ and trap‐related leakage, reduces noise, and enables high‐detectivity near‐infrared detection with imaging capability ...
