Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study explores the opposing effects of the mGluR2 and mGluR3 receptors on amyloid precursor protein processing. mGluR2 promotes amyloidogenic cleavage, while mGluR3 favors non‐amyloidogenic pathways. Using a brain‐penetrant nanobody as a mGluR2 positive allosteric modulator, the study uncovers how its chronic activation aggravates amyloid‐β burden

The Faraday Scalpel: Electrochemical Nerve Lesioning Mechanisms Studied in Invertebrate Models
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Direct‐current produces nerve lesioning through discrete electrochemical reactions. Using hypoxia‐sensitive locust nerves and hypoxia‐tolerant leech nerves, we map three injury pathways: cathodic oxygen reduction, cathodic alkalization, and anodic chloride oxidation. These findings establish electrochemical lesioning—the “Faraday Scalpel”—as a precise,

Smart Nanotechnologies for Multimodal Neuromodulation and Brain Interfacing
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Recent advances in smart nanotechnologies are expanding the toolbox for brain interfacing, from wireless neuromodulation and high‐resolution sensing to targeted delivery within the central nervous system. By combining responsive nanomaterials with bioinspired design, these platforms enable multimodal interactions with neurons and glia, while also ...

Temporal Interference Stimulation Enhances Neural Regeneration
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Temporal interference (TI) stimulation is proposed as a non‐invasive approach to enhance neural regeneration in the deep brain. Theta‐band TI modulation selectively promotes neural progenitor cell differentiation in vitro and augments hippocampal neurogenesis in amouse model of Alzheimer's disease‐like amyloidosis.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.We investigate whether Montessori and traditional schooling systems shape the developmental trajectory of large‐scale brain dynamics in different ways. We quantify the arrow of time (“non‐reversibility”) in neural activity during resting state and movie‐watching, revealing distinct maturational patterns.

Tracing the Dynamic Chemical Transformations of Spiro‐OMeTAD in Operating Perovskite Solar Cells
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Mapping of Spiro‐OMeTAD layer's chemistry and electronic properties in PSC: Advanced cluster ion‐beam sputtering depth profile XPS reveals that environmental stressors (light, potential, and moisture) trigger the decomposition of LiTFSI dopants in Spiro‐OMeTAD.
