ICAO ANC Delegation Visits PVG: VariFlight’s TAM Solution Takes Center Stage

SHANGHAI, July 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On July 8, a distinguished delegation from the International Civil Aviation Organization’s (ICAO) Air Navigation Commission (ANC) arrived at Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG) for a technical exchange visit. This visit provided a prime opportunity to showcase PVG’s remarkable achievements in digital transformation, with a particular focus on the Total Airport Management (TAM) solution — a groundbreaking intelligent system co-developed by VariFlight and PVG.

Upon arrival, the delegation received an in-depth briefing on PVG’s digital transformation journey, with emphasis on the TAM solution. As an AI-driven, agent-based operational model, the TAM solution seamlessly integrates various aspects of airport management, optimizing resource allocation, streamlining workflows, and enhancing overall operational performance—all critical for large-scale airports like PVG.


The delegation expressed strong interest in and appreciation for the TAM solution’s practical implementation. VariFlight, as the technical provider of TAM, was on hand to offer detailed explanations, demonstrating its deep understanding of the system’s inner workings and its potential for further development.

Mr. Junrong Liang, President of ICAO ANC, emphasized that ICAO closely monitors the development of artificial intelligence (AI) applications in aviation. He encouraged airports to share more digital and intelligent best practices with ICAO ANC, as these could support the development of globally applicable standards in the future.

Following the meeting, the ANC delegation visited the airside operations area of PVG to observe a live demonstration of autonomous baggage tractors. Under the TAM system, the intelligent Surface Management Agent (SURF Agent) and Ground Management Agent (GMAN Agent) enabled real-time collaboration between systems and vehicles, significantly enhancing the safety and efficiency of autonomous ground operations.

United States to Charge USD 250 Visa Integrity Fee Starting October

United States to Charge USD 250 Visa Integrity Fee Starting October. (Photo credit: Vanguard News)

The United States will begin charging a new USD 250 “Visa Integrity Fee” to most non-immigrant visa applicants from 1 October, as part of a new law signed by President Donald Trump on 4 July.

The legislation, which was drafted earlier this year and approved by the Senate, introduces the additional charge as part of broader immigration and visa policy reforms. Once in effect, the new fee will apply to a wide range of visa categories, including tourist and business (B-1/B-2), student (F and M), work (H-1B and H-4), and exchange visitor (J) visas.

This USD 250 fee will be charged on top of existing visa costs, such as the Machine Readable Visa (MRV) fee, reciprocity fees, and other standard administrative charges. 

It is expected to increase the overall cost of obtaining a U.S. visa for many international travelers.

Travelers from countries that are part of the U.S. Visa Waiver Program (VWP) will not be affected. Citizens of countries such as Australia, Japan, South Korea, and most European nations can continue to travel to the United States for tourism or business purposes for up to 90 days without a visa, and therefore will not be subject to the new fee.

However, applicants from countries not included in the VWP, including Laos, will be required to pay the full set of visa fees, including the new integrity charge. 

U.S. authorities have not yet clarified whether the new fee will be reviewed or adjusted annually, nor how the revenue from the charge will be used. Further information is expected to be released closer to the implementation date

Tighter Immigration Controls for Lao Nationals

The introduction of the Visa Integrity Fee follows a series of recent policy moves by the Trump administration aimed at tightening immigration controls.

On 4 June, President Trump signed a full travel ban on 12 countries and a partial ban on an additional seven countries, among which Laos. 

The ban fully prohibits travel to the US by nationals of Afghanistan, Myanmar, Chad, the Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen. 

Meanwhile, a partial ban on travelers from Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan, and Venezuela, suspends immigrant entry and restricting nonimmigrant visas in the B-1/B-2 (tourist and business), F and M (student), and J (exchange visitor) categories, while allowing limited exceptions for certain temporary work visas.

For Lao nationals, the combined impact proves particularly challenging. Unlike VWP countries, Lao citizens must obtain visas for any US entry regardless of purpose or duration.

Recent Department of Homeland Security data shows Laos recorded a 9.55 percent overstay rate in the B-1/B-2 category.

METiS Technologies Showcases AI-Powered Nanodelivery Platform at the 2025 Controlled Release Society Annual Meeting

HANGZHOU, BEIJING, China and CAMBRIDGE, Mass., July 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — METiS Technologies, a global leader in AI-driven nanodelivery innovation, today announced the presentation of its latest research findings at the poster session of the 2025 Controlled Release Society (CRS) Annual Meeting. The company demonstrated that its proprietary AiLNP platform enables the rapid design of tissue-targeted lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), which exhibit high delivery efficiency, strong tissue specificity, and excellent translatability in non-human primates (NHPs).

Founded in 1978, the Controlled Release Society is the world’s foremost nonprofit scientific organization dedicated to advanced drug delivery. At this year’s meeting, METiS Technologies stood out as the only Chinese biotechnology company participating with a featured poster presentation. Dr. Hongming Chen, Co-founder and Chief R&D Officer of METiS and a Member of the U.S. National Academy of Engineering, together with Dr. Andong Liu, Vice President of METiS, presented the poster titled: “AI-Empowered LNP Discovery for Organ-Targeted RNA Delivery.”

The AiLNP platform is METiS’ proprietary AI-driven system for nucleic acid delivery design. It integrates a de novo lipid generation foundation model, a high-throughput microfluidics-based LNP assembly and screening system, and a large-scale, proprietary lipid library. Collectively, these innovations expand the design space of nanomaterials by over 1,000-fold compared to conventional approaches—effectively overcoming long-standing discovery bottlenecks in the field.

By combining predictive AI models with molecular dynamics simulations, the AiLNP platform provides mechanistic insights into lipid behavior and enables prediction of more than 10 physicochemical parameters. It further allows for rational design and optimization of LNP components and ratios to construct customized, high-performance delivery systems.

Key findings from the poster highlight the platform’s ability to accelerate LNP design cycles while significantly improving discovery speed and quality across multiple tissue targets:

Liver-targeted LNPs developed through AiLNP demonstrated best-in-class performance for gene editing, achieving high efficiency and safety in NHPs. Using CRISPR-Cas9-mediated TTR knockdown as a model, LNP developed by AiLNP achieved ~90% reduction in serum TTR levels with only a transient, mild elevation in liver enzymes.

Lung-targeted LNPs exhibited high delivery efficiency and specificity in rodents, with successful translation to NHPs. At the cellular level, these LNPs transfected a broad range of pulmonary cell types in NHPs—including stem-like cells, alveolar type II cells (>30%), and airway basal cells (>10%) at 1 mg/kg—supporting their potential for durable genetic correction.

METiS’ Musle-targeted LNPs also enabled successful in vivo delivery and gene editing in multiple types of muscle cells in mice.
