Switchable Terahertz Beam Steering with Near‐Perfect Ordinary Transmission
This study introduces a reconfigurable metasurface that enables switchable terahertz beam steering upon actuation by a global temperature change. At room temperature, it achieves a true “OFF” state with nearly 100% transmission, behaving as if the metasurface is not present, thereby not distorting incoming light.

Self‐Adjusting Engineered Probiotic for Targeted Tumor Colonization and Local Therapeutics Delivery
Zou et al. developed an engineered strain of Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 with precise targeting abilities for colonization and on‐demand payload release. The engineered probiotic survives and embolizes tumors only in the presence of more than 5 mM L‐lactate. Furthermore, the introduction of an α‐hemolysin circuit enhances its anti‐tumor effect.
