Researchers at the University of Helsinki found that after multiple hybridisation events between two wood ant species distinct hybrid populations evolved independently towards the same direction, suggesting hybridisation is predictable.
According to a recently completed study, the risk of dementia is one-fifth higher in people who report more perceived stress or depression, nervousness or exhaustion.
Language function and the psychosocial wellbeing of patients and their families can be promoted with singing-based rehabilitation. Group intervention provides opportunities for peer support while being simultaneously cost effective.
Researchers have uncovered sphingolipid accumulation as a new mechanism that affects ageing. Ceramides, the best-known class of sphingolipids, accumulate in aged muscle, impairing its function while also affecting functional capacity in older adults.
Researchers have developed an optimized genetic test for ovarian cancer, which helps accurately target an effective but expensive medication. The drug has significantly improved the prognosis of ovarian cancer patients.
Alcohol exposure in early pregnancy can change gene function during the tightly regulated embryonic development, and consequently cause developmental disorders - especially neurodevelopmental disorders.
Developed at SMART, the device can deliver controlled amounts of agrochemicals to specific plant tissues for research and could one day be used to improve crop quality and disease management.
Developed at MIT, D2X is a new tool that makes it easy to debug any domain-specific programming language.
Damage to the spinal cord can be extremely disabling. Now research from the University of Copenhagen shows that the cells of the spinal cord do not behave as expected – a discovery that may prove important in connection with future treatment.
“DribbleBot” can maneuver a soccer ball on landscapes such as sand, gravel, mud, and snow, using reinforcement learning to adapt to varying ball dynamics.
MIT researchers built DiffDock, a model that may one day be able to find new drugs faster than traditional methods and reduce the potential for adverse side effects.
North Carolina State University researchers have demonstrated that a synthetic polymer can remove certain dyes from water, and that the polymer can be recovered and reused.
Researchers develop new, patient-friendly hydrogel platform for administering lifesaving biologics.
North Carolina State University researchers released findings from an analysis of 284 different studies on the challenges and best practices for teaching K-12 classes online –
With the right building blocks, machine-learning models can more accurately perform tasks like fraud detection or spam filtering.
Researchers create a trajectory-planning system that enables drones working together in the same airspace to always choose a safe path forward.
A new study from North Carolina State University explores the connection between hearing loss and dementia in geriatric dogs.
A recent study highlights the range of uncomfortable situations people living with blindness or visual impairment encounter due to interpersonal communication challenges, and outlines strategies people with visual impairment use to navigate these situations.
A far-reaching review of academic papers and reports evaluated 46 proposed “win–win” solutions for reducing human infectious disease burdens and advancing conservation goals, which now can be explored on a publicly available website.
Associate Professor Tamara Broderick and colleagues build a “taxonomy of trust” to identify where confidence in the results of a data analysis might break down.
