“In this article, we show that despite the nominal endorsement of a maximum false-positive rate of 5% (i.e., p ≤ .05), current standards for disclosing details of data collection and analyses make false positives vastly more likely. In fact, it […]
If anyone who understands material science well would like to tutor me a bit, I would be grateful! “Our work represents an order-of-magnitude expansion in stable materials known to humanity. Stable discoveries that are on the final convex hull will […]
“Wireless devices use different filters for different frequencies, with the effect that covering all frequencies or bands requires large numbers of filters that take up substantial space. (The typical smartphone includes upwards of 100 filters, to ensure that signals from […]
“When examining the cognitive data, the team found two types of brain aging: slower-than-accepted and accelerated. When they combined the cognitive data with the nutritional measurements, they found a certain nutritional profile clearly linked to those with slower brain aging.” […]
Much better than a placebo, says this study of over 4,000 participants. It measured changes to “weight-related quality of life (WRQOL) and health-related quality of life (HRQOL)” scores. What I found interesting was that even with the drug, only 40-50% […]
Who’s ready for this future? “Our proposed framework successfully reconstructed both seen images (i.e., those observed by the human eye) and imagined images from brain activity. Quantitative evaluation showed that our framework could identify seen and imagined images highly accurately […]
“Researchers at MIT have discovered a new phenomenon: that light can cause evaporation of water from its surface without the need for heat.” ~ learn more
“In preliminary experiments, the tool was able to distinguish between patients with diagnosed pancreatic, gastric or colorectal cancer and people without cancer — and the analysis took just minutes. By detecting certain chemicals in blood, the test could identify when […]
“The demonstration that making an mRNA cancer vaccine in this fashion generates similar and strong responses across mice, pet dogs that have developed cancer spontaneously, and human patients with brain cancer is a really important finding, because oftentimes we don’t […]
“Growing evidence suggests a link between the debilitating neurological illness and the microbes that live in our intestines. The vagus nerve may be a pathway.” ~ learn more
