World Faces Air Pollution Threat, and Light Technology Could Help
Researchers in Germany believe air pollution is responsible for 8.8 million deaths per year, according to a study published March 3 in Cardiovascular Research. However, research by SPECTARIS, the Fraunhofer Institute, TEMATYS, and Messe München suggests that by 2030, photonic technology applications could lessen worldwide carbon dioxide output by 3 billion tons.

Researchers Use Photonic Systems to Improve Quantum Orienteering Protocols
Scientists at the University of Science and Technology of China have enhanced the performance of quantum orienteering with entangling measurements applied by way of photonic quantum walks. The researchers said that while there has been extensive research on entangling states, few studies of entangling measurements have been done, because entangling measurements are difficult to realize.

Optogenetic Control of Protein Accelerates ALS Symptoms in Zebrafish
A joint research group in Japan reproduced amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) symptoms in zebrafish by remotely controlling a disease-associated protein molecule with light. The researchers focused on the motor neurons of zebrafish because they share several characteristics with human motor neurons. Whole cells can be visualized because of the transparent zebrafish body.

Robot Uses AI and Imaging to Draw Blood
Rutgers University engineers have created a tabletop device that combines a robot, artificial intelligence, and near-infrared and ultrasound imaging to draw blood or insert catheters to deliver fluids and drugs. The device can accurately steer needles and catheters into tiny blood vessels with minimal supervision.
