State of the Art of Low‐Frequency Acoustic Modulation: Intensity Enhancement and Directional Control
High intensity low‐frequency sound sources hold significant value in many fields. However, their long wavelength, strong penetrability, and tendency to diffract make direction control and intensity enhancement challenging. Acoustic generators and metamaterial‐based acoustic devices still face issues such as low energy efficiency, poor directional ...

Epileptiform Activity and Seizure Risk Follow Long‐Term Non‐Linear Attractor Dynamics
This study leverages the HAVOK framework to model long‐term, nonlinear attractor dynamics underlying epileptiform activity and seizure risk in epilepsy patients. By identifying key forcing mechanisms driving chaotic transitions, the findings improve seizure risk forecasting over multi‐day cycles and provide a pathway for personalized, data‐driven ...

Label‐Free Dual‐Modal Photoacoustic/Ultrasound Localization Imaging for Studying Acute Kidney Injury
This work develops a 3D label‐free photoacoustic/super‐resolution ultrasound imaging system as a comprehensive non‐invasive tool for acute kidney injury (AKI) study. This technique visualizes the intricate structure of renal microvessels and provides critical physiological insights, including renal hemodynamics and oxygenation.
