“Researchers at The University of Texas (UT) at Austin tested an AI algorithm that accurately predicted 70 percent of earthquakes a week before they happened. The trials took place during a seven month period in China and offered much hope […]
“Researchers at Northwestern University have presented their new nano-electronic device in a paper published in the journal Nature Electronics. It’s designed to perform the task of classification – that is, analyzing large amounts of data and attempting to label the […]
“The Initiative has just dropped a new trove of research, with an international team of hundreds of scientists publishing more than 20 papers across Science journals. Among them are the first “atlas” of cells in the human brain, based on […]
“Our study showed fiber reduced inflammation in the brain region responsible for memory by as much as 50%.” ~ learn more
“In a move that echoes a sci-fi series, researchers have developed a super-small material that was able to not only stimulate nerves in rodents, but reconnect them as well. The finding could lead to injectable particles that take the place […]
Researchers linked silicon solar cells with perovskite solar cells in tandem. “The results, reported in Joule, illustrate that the connection protects the frail perovskite solar cell from voltage-induced breakdown while attaining greater efficiencies than either cell can achieve on their […]
With “gold bipolar nanoelectrodes, termed bio-nanoantennae” plus a bit of electrical stimulation, the cancer cells self-destructed while leaving neighboring healthy cells unharmed. ~ learn more
Consider this your friendly reminder that we mostly still have no idea how biology works. “Scientists are learning ever more about how vesicles move in and out of cells and across the complex terrain between them, as well as about […]
“Let me tell you the story of this still of stephen colbert wearing meat goggles, my buddy Frank, and how I learned to distrust science journalism” ~ learn more
A randomized clinical trial of 104 adults, including a placebo group (I wonder if those people quickly figured out which group they were in?). In any case, the results of the psilocybin group look strong. “The primary outcome was change […]
