http://en.people.cn/n3/2023/0314/c90000-10222094.html (Xinhua) 13:32, March 14, 2023 BEIJING, March 14 (Xinhua) — Chinese researchers have discovered that frequent engagement in social activities is strongly associated with prolonged overall lifespan in older people. The issue of population aging poses a growing concern around the world. It is estimated that China will become a deeply aging society in 2027 […]
https://www.nature.com/articles/s42256-023-00616-6 Researchers from Tsinghua University and Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine have devised a graphene-based intelligent, wearable artificial throat (AT), sensitive to human speech and vocalization-related motions. The AT’s perception of the mixed modalities of acoustic signals and mechanical motions enables it to acquire signals with a low fundamental frequency while remaining noise resistant. It can […]
