A Convoy of Magnetic Millirobots Transports Endoscopic Instruments for Minimally‐Invasive Surgery
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The first electrocautery procedure performed by a team of millirobots (TrainBots) is presented. Enhanced with optimized feet, millirobots form a convoy to facilitate the collaborative transportation of wires and catheters through biological lumens, e.g. bile ducts. It opens up the possibility of using a team of mini‐robots in future endoscopic surgery.

Social Effects in Simple Computer Model of Ageing [PDF]
arXiv, 2001 A simple evolutionary model for biological ageing is modified such that it requires a minimum population for survival, like in human society. This social effect leads to a transition between extinction and survival of the species.

Accelerated Bone Healing via Electrical Stimulation
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Electrical stimulation significantly impacts bone healing by enhancing osteoblast proliferation, differentiation, and vascularization through calmodulin/calcineurin/NFAT signaling. It also boosts macrophage function and cell migration, presenting a comprehensive approach to accelerating bone repair.

Lecithin Alleviates Memory Deficits and Muscle Attenuation in Chinese Older Adults and SAMP8 Mice
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study opens a new avenue for safeguarding cognition and muscle health, averting disability in older age, and treating age‐related pathologies through lecithin supplementation. It serves as a promising nonpharmacological intervention for the crosstalk of muscle and cognition.

Complementarity between survival and mortality [PDF]
arXiv, 2004 Accurate demographic functions help scientists define and understand longevity. We summarize a new demographic model, the Weon model, and show the application to the demographic data for Switzerland (1876-2002). Particularly, the Weon model simply defines the maximum longevity, which is induced in nature by the mortality dynamics.

Planet RB: a personal contribution to a proteomic map of human retinoblastoma protein [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 As I compress on the canvas of a few pages here major results of my research on the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor protein (RB) spreading over the past 15 years, an exciting picture emerges on this unique host molecule which surpasses in its complexity even that of the most capable viral proteins known to date.
