A study identifying new ways to detect skin cancer using artificial intelligence (AI) has been conducted by researchers from the University of Hawaiʻi Cancer Center.
Remote ocean wilderness areas are located more than four hours from people and more than nine hours of travel distance from urban markets
There is growing public awareness that climate change will impact society not only through changes in mean temperatures and rainfall over the 21st century, but also in the occurrence of more pronounced extreme events, and more generally in natural variability in the Earth system
Sophisticated analysis of a rock sample taken from the Moon during the Apollo 17 mission nearly 50 years ago revealed new information about the complex cooling and evolutionary history of the Moon.
Groundwater is a vital resource for humans and ecosystems. Submarine groundwater discharge is a process by which water exits coastal aquifers and enters the ocean
Puakō, on the west side of Hawaiʻi Island, is in great need of a wastewater treatment plant, according to a team of researchers at the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo studying the impact of local sewage systems on coastal water quality.
The previously elusive methanediol molecule of importance to the organic, atmospheric science and astrochemistry communities has been synthetically produced for the first time by University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa researchers.
A new tool uses facial recognition technology to identify individual whales and dolphins in the wild across 24 species.
UC Riverside-led study shows maternal transfer of PBDEs causes brain changes in female mice offspring
Compared to humans, artificial intelligence (AI) language models produce accurate tweets that are easier to understand and tweets containing disinformation that are harder to detect, according to a recent study from the University of Zurich. While these results can be leveraged to create more effective information campaigns, they also highlight the need to mitigate the risks connected to AI.
The tabletop diagnostic yields results in an hour and can be programmed to detect variants of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
UC Riverside and Rutgers University scientists explore this question in a study on mice
When unethical behavior is criticized, demands are often met with defensiveness and denial. How can we overcome this reaction? New research from the University of Zurich demonstrates that criticism is more persuasive when it is expressed with concern for the welfare of those being criticized.
Technique for editing bacterial genomes can record interactions between cells, may offer a way to edit genes in the human microbiome.
The design could help restore motor function after stroke, enhance virtual gaming experiences.
MIT-led research team fashions graphene foam into device that can extract uranium and other heavy metals from tap water.
The future of electronics will be based on novel kinds of materials. Sometimes, however, the naturally occurring topology of atoms makes it difficult for new physical effects to be created. To tackle this problem, researchers at the University of Zurich have now successfully designed superconductors one atom at a time, creating new states of matter.
Microbes multiply in heat, changing nectar, upsetting bees
New technique makes apps perform better across devices while keeping costs about the same
