Neuromorphic tactile sensing and haptic display enable fine distributed cutaneous feedback in telepresence

Abstract Touch encoding and display is still an unmet need in advanced robotics and telepresence, although somatosensation is crucial to enable safe human-machine cooperation and remote interaction. This study presents an Integrated Neuromorphic Tactile-Haptic Interface System (I...

Self-PulsingMicroring Resonator Networks for Bandwidth-EfficientEvent Detection in an Optical Fiber Sensor

Abstract The native processing of time-dependent signals from optical sensors by integrated photonic circuits can potentially bring significant advantages in terms of energy consumption, latency and processing power, as it allows skipping or reducing the use of fast digital elect...

SABER: a multiparental tomato population leveraging wild relative diversity for high-resolution QTL mapping

Abstract The narrow genetic base of cultivated tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum L.) represents a major constraint on crop improvement, necessitating the exploitation of wild relatives to broaden allelic diversity. Here we present SABER ( Solanum lycopersicum Allele Biodiversity Enri...

Efficient sEMG decoding with hybrid, multi-timescale neural networks

Surface electromyography (sEMG) offers a non-invasive window into neuromuscular activity and is increasingly used as a reliable control signal for prosthetics, rehabilitation devices, and wearable health monitoring.However, decoding sEMG for such applications is computationally e...

From research to practice: transforming patient-reported data reporting through a collaborative digital system

Purpose Innovation in the healthcare (HC) sector presents challenges and complexities. Universities and research centers can play a role in HC innovation collaborative initiatives. This article examines how collaborative co-creation between academia and HC organizations enabled t...

A Modified Delphi consensus on early management of combined cardiovascular risk factors in adult patients with type 2 diabetes in Italy

BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a complex chronic disease often associated with other metabolic conditions that increase the risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease and early mortality. Hence, early, integrated management of T2D may prevent long-term CV complications. METHODS: T...
