A research team led by LIFS Assoc. Prof. Tom CHEUNG has discovered the constructive role of a protein in driving the skeletal muscle stem cell activation to repair muscle following damage, laying the foundation for further study in the mechanisms of stem cell quiescence-to-activation transition and stem cell-based muscle regeneration. Read More...

科大共同研究發現食鹽的拓撲特性及其角落電荷

粵語中有「我食鹽多過你食米」一說。雖然言者未必有意聽者亦無須太認真，但這句俗語卻的確帶出了「食鹽」在我們日常生活中的重要性。而你又可有想過，守候在餐桌角落，重要卻不起眼的食鹽，竟然會與前沿物理研究及抽象數學理論扯上關係呢？

科大學者發現利用損耗實現量子控制的新方法

香港科技大學（科大）的研究人員發現一個新方法，利用粒子損耗這種在量子器材中通常需要避免的過程來控制量子態，有機會能為實現前所未有的量子態開闢新的途徑。
