1. Silicon Nanowire Field-Effect Devices as Low-Noise Sensors
Abstract : In the past decades, silicon nanowire field-effect transistors (SiNWFETs) have been explored for label-free, highly sensitive, and real-time detections of chemical and biological species. The SiNWFETs are anticipated for sensing analyte at ultralow concentrations, even at single-molecule level, owing to their significantly improved charge sensitivity over large-area FETs. READ MORE

2. Data-Efficient Reinforcement and Transfer Learning in Robotics
Abstract : In the past few years, deep reinforcement learning (RL) has shown great potential in learning action selection policies for solving different tasks.Despite its impressive success in games, several challenges remain, such as designing appropriate reward functions, collecting large amounts of interactive data, and dealing with unseen cases, which make it difficult to apply RL algorithms to real-world robotics tasks.

3. Interfering with interferons : interplay between SARS-CoV-2 and interferon response
Abstract : Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) caused the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, which has been an ongoing global health crisis. At the beginning of the pandemic, all the efforts were directed toward understanding the pathogenesis of the virus. READ MORE

4. Photothermal Effect in Plasmonic Nanostructures and its Applications
Abstract : Plasmonic resonances are characterized by enhanced optical near field and subwavelength power confinement. Light is not only scattered but also simultaneously absorbed in the metal nanostructures. READ MORE

5. Integrative Modeling of Epigenetic Regulation in Human Disease
Abstract : Glioblastoma is the most common and aggressive primary brain tumor. Standard of treatment prove ineffective, leading to tumor recurrence and an average survival rate of 14 months. This treatment resistance is attributed to both inter-tumor and intra-tumor heterogeneity observed across diverse tumor samples and within individual cells. READ MORE
