A Closed‐Loop‐Capable Neural Interface Platform for Deep Brain Modulation via Integrated Non‐Viral Gene Delivery, NIR Optogenetics, and Electrophysiological Recording

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A multifunctional, 3D porous neural interface combines non‐viral gene delivery and NIR optogenetics to enable minimally invasive, closed‐loop modulation of deep‐brain circuits. Abstract Closed‐loop neuromodulation requires precise, stable, and cell‐specific control of neural circuits with minimal invasiveness.

Restricting Copper Reconstruction with Ultrathin Polydopamine for Selective and Stable Electrochemical CO2 Reduction Reaction to C2 Products

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
An ultrathin polydopamine coating on copper microcubes mitigates the surface reconstruction during EC‐CO2RR. Copper nanocubes form on the surface of the microcubes in the early stages of the EC‐CO2RR, contributing to suppressed surface reconstruction and sustained Faradaic efficiency for C2 products.
