RGB and CYMK are two major coloring schemes currently available for light colors and pigment colors, respectively. Both systems use letter-based color codes that require a large range of values to represent different colors. The problem is that these two systems are hard to use for manipulating any operations involving combinations of colors, and they lack the capacity for inter-changeability or unification. Based on prime number theory and Goldbach's conjecture, this study presents a universal color system (C) using a number-based structure to encode, compute and unify all colors on a color wheel. The proposed C system offers a unified representation for the efficient encoding and effective manipulation of color. It can be applied to designing a high-rate LCD system and colorizing objects with multiple attributes and DNA codons, opening the door to manipulating colors and lights for even broader applications.

In the Drosophila brain, neuronal diversity originates from approximately 100 neural stem cells, each dividing asymmetrically. Precise mapping of cell lineages at the single-cell resolution is crucial for understanding the mechanisms that direct neuronal specification. However, existing methods for high-resolution lineage tracing are notably time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Cell lineage analysis is primarily undertaken to understand cell fate specification and diversification along a cell lineage tree. Built with dual repressible markers, twin-spot mosaic analysis with repressible cell markers (MARCM) labels the two daughter cells made by a common precursor in distinct colors. The power of twin-spot MARCM to systematically subdivide complex lineages is exemplified in studies of Drosophila neural stem-cell lineages.

During development, cells undergo a sequence of specification events to form functional tissues and organs. To investigate complex tissue development, it is crucial to visualize how cell lineages emerge and to be able to manipulate regulatory factors with temporal control. We recently developed TEMPO (Temporal Encoding and Manipulation in a Predefined Order), a genetic tool to label with different colors and genetically manipulate consecutive cell generations in vertebrates.

StarTrack is a powerful multicolor genetic tool designed to unravel cellular lineages arising from neural progenitor cells (NPCs). This innovative technique, based on retrospective clonal analysis and built upon the PiggyBac system, creates a unique and inheritable "color code" within NPCs. Through the stochastic integration of 12 distinct plasmids encoding six fluorescent proteins, StarTrack enables precise and comprehensive tracking of cellular fates and progenitor potentials.

Intelligent soft robots that integrate both structural color and controllable actuation ability have attracted substantial attention for constructing biomimetic systems, biomedical devices, and soft robotics. However, simultaneously endowing single-layer cholesteric liquid crystal elastomer (CLCE) soft actuators with reversible 3D deformability and vivid structural color changes is still challenging. Herein, a multi-responsive (force, heat and light) single-layer 3D deformable soft actuator with vivid structural color-changing ability is realized through the reduced graphene oxide (RGO) deposition-induced Janus structure of the CLCE using a precisely-controlled evaporation method.
