Two researchers share insights from studying City Nature Challenge organisers in the UK and their strategies for success.
Research finds black carbon from wildfires contains multiple cores, increasing light absorption by 19 per cent compared with current climate model estimates.
Interdisciplinary collaboration produces STIMP, an artificial intelligence tool that fills satellite data gaps and forecasts coastal algal blooms with unprecedented accuracy.
Robotic probe uses electrochemical sensing and nanotweezers to extract individual mitochondria from living cells with 96 per cent survival rate.
Hong Kong University of Science and Technology researchers developed a refrigerant-free cooling device reaching −12°C, potentially reducing global freezing emissions.
Scientists discover how protein ANKLE1 senses mechanical tension in DNA bridges between dividing cells, preventing genetic damage and disease.
Our immersive Hong Kong jellyfish series continues.
Piezo1 protein helps bone marrow stem cells respond to mechanical forces, supporting bone formation and limiting fat accumulation in the marrow.
Hong Kong Baptist University researchers found chemical patterns in pregnant women's hair could warn of underactive thyroid before clinical diagnosis.
Researchers at the Chinese University of Hong Kong link excess NCAM1 to disrupted synapses, pointing to isoform-balancing strategies as treatment leads.
Multivalent ligands form a robust surface layer that reduces defects and ion movement, improving perovskite solar cell stability.
Hong Kong Polytechnic University research shows wildfires reduce Arctic snow season duration by darkening land surfaces that absorb solar energy.
Croucher announces 2026 summer courses covering topics from synchrotron radiation to vaccine hesitancy at four Hong Kong universities.
Dr Fatwa F Abdi says solar electrolysis could become a multi-product “solar refinery”, improving economics by making higher-value chemicals.
Researchers rebuilt vesicle formation to compare cargo selection by two adaptors, revealing transport faults tied to genetic disorders and autophagy.
Nanopillar structures convert minute misalignment into a clear optical change, helping manufacturers fine-tune overlay without major retooling.
Researchers at City University of Hong Kong used GenomePAM and genome-wide break mapping to quickly determine CRISPR enzyme targeting needs in cells.
Hong Kong Baptist University researchers found that inhaled microplastics accumulate in lungs, spleen and brain, causing inflammation and early signs of lung scarring in mice.
