Measurement Methods for Droplet Adhesion Characteristics and Micrometer-Scale Quantification of Contact Angle on Superhydrophobic Surfaces: Challenges and Opportunities.

Inspired by nature, superhydrophobic surfaces have been widely studied. Usually the wettability of a superhydrophobic surface is quantified by the macroscopic contact angle. However, this method has various limitations, especially for precision micro devices with superhydrophobic surfaces, such as biomimetic artificial compound eyes and biomimetic water strider robots.

An Ensemble Model for Tumor Type Identification and Cancer Origins Classification.

Tissue biopsy can be wildly used in cancer diagnosis. However, manually classifying the cancerous status of biopsies and tissue origin of tumors for cancerous ones requires skilled specialists and sophisticated equipment. As a result, a data-based model is urgently needed.
