Among blood components, platelets (PLTs) present the toughest logistic challenges in transfusion due to limited availability, difficult portability and storage, high contamination risks, and very short shelf life (approx. 5 days). Robust research efforts are being directed to develop biologic PLTs in vitro as well as design biosynthetic and artificial PLT technologies that can potentially resolve these challenges to allow adequate availability and timely transfusion to improve survival in trauma.

Degradable features are highly desirable to advance next-generation organic mixed ionic-electronic conductors (OMIECs) for transient bioinspired artificial intelligence devices.It is highly challenging that OMIECs exhibit excellent mixed ionic-electronic behavior and show degradability simultaneously.Specially,in OMIECs,doping is often a tradeoff between structural disorder and charge carrier mobilities.

Artificial neurons with bio-inspired firing patterns have the potential to significantly improve the performance of neural network computing. The most significant component of an artificial neuron circuit is a large amount of energy consumption. Recent literature has proposed memristors as a promising option for synaptic implementation.

Along with the development of miniaturization, integration, and high power of electronic chips in the 5G and artificial intelligence era and their urgent need for technologies enabled to solve high heat flux dissipation in limited space, investigating bioinspired extreme superwettability surfaces with high-efficiency condensation heat transfer (CHT) performance has attracted great interest in academic and industrial communities. Compared with filmwise condensation of flat hydrophilic surfaces featured with continuous liquid films, dropwise condensation of flat hydrophobic surfaces is a more efficient type of energy transport way. However, discrete condensate drops can only shed off the hydrophobic flat surfaces under gravity until their sizes reach the capillary length of liquid, e.

Double Attention: An Optimization Method for the Self-Attention Mechanism Based on Human Attention.

Biomimetics (Basel)

January 2025

Faculty of Electrical, Information and Communication Engineering, Kanazawa University, Kanazawa 9201192, Japan.

Artificial intelligence, with its remarkable adaptability, has gradually integrated into daily life. The emergence of the self-attention mechanism has propelled the Transformer architecture into diverse fields, including a role as an efficient and precise diagnostic and predictive tool in medicine. To enhance accuracy, we propose the Double-Attention (DA) method, which improves the neural network's biomimetic performance of human attention.

Resilience of hierarchical actuators highlighted by a myosin-to-muscle mock-up.

Bioinspir Biomim

January 2025

Institut des sciences du mouvement, Aix-Marseille Universite, 163, av. de Luminy, Marseille, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, 13284, FRANCE.

Skeletal muscle is the main actuator of various families of vertebrates (mammals, fish, reptiles). It displays remarkable robustness to micro-damage, that supposedly originates both from its redundant hierarchical structure and its nervous command. A bioinspired mock-up was designed and manufactured mimicking sarcomeres (micro-scale) and its series and parallel structure from fibre to muscle.
