Cryopreservation of Date Palm, Oil Palm, and Coconut
, 1995 In tropical and subtropical regions, palms are well represented among cultivated species. Date palm, coconut palm, and oil palm are among the most important crops in the economy of many developing countries around the world. The safe conservation of genetic resources of these species is faced with various problems.

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Sparse active‐infrared proximity sensing is coupled to an adaptive thigmotactic controller for camera‐inaccessible object retrieval. After grasping, receptor‐informed encoding transforms force, temperature, and wrist force–torque signals into spike trains for spiking neural network recognition.

Engineering Microbial Particles for Next‐Generation Biomedical Platforms
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Microbe‐derived particles (MDPs), which include extracellular vesicles, outer membrane vesicles, inclusion bodies, polysaccharide particles, and virus‐like particles, represent a rapidly expanding category of bioinspired nanomaterials. With their natural origin, intrinsic biocompatibility, and highly programmable functionality, MDPs serve as a ...

Advances and Perspectives in Graphene‐Based Quantum Dots Enabled Neuromorphic Devices
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Graphene‐based QDs are zero‐dimensional carbon nanomaterials with pronounced quantum confinement and tunable electronic structures. Herein, we summarize their synthesis strategies and functionalization methods, and highlight their functional roles and operating mechanisms in devices, as well as recent advances in neuromorphic electronics. We anticipate
