An international research team led by CityUHK has used a physics-informed artificial intelligence (AI) model to reveal that Antarctic ice loss will continue throughout this century, even if global warming is limited to the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C target. However, reducing greenhouse gas emissions can significantly limit the extent of ice loss. Under a high-emissions scenario, Antarctic ice loss could lead to an increase of up to 25.4 cm in global sea level by 2100.

As global warming continues, people tend to switch on fans or air conditioners during hot weather. But the more we use electrical appliances, the more energy and carbon dioxide we consume and produce. With continuous breakthroughs in electricity-free cooling, CityUHK recently developed a new infrared-transparent aerogel, which boosts the cooling performance of subambient daytime radiative cooling materials by up to 5.2°C.

A research team led by Professor Chan Kui-ming from the Department of Biomedical Sciences at CityUHK, discovered that H2BE113K, a missense H2B mutation, promotes colony formation and lung metastasis of breast cancer. The research revealed that H2BE113K plays a critical role in chromatin regulation, cellular function and breast cancer progression, shedding light on novel targeted therapy of breast cancer.

A research team at CityUHK has developed a new optical corner detection imaging method, which uses azimuthal Hilbert transform metasurfaces and is designed to work as a universal framework. The study marks an important advance in high-speed, low-power optical information processing and has demonstrated potential for motion tracking applications.
