Researchers from Lund University in Sweden have discovered higher levels of immune proteins in the blood before and after an epileptic seizure.
Is it possible to know exactly where to point a microscope in order to capture the precise moment a bacterium or a virus infects a cell?
A new technique could enable a robot to manipulate squishy objects like pizza dough or soft materials like clothing.
An efficient machine-learning method uses chemical knowledge to create a learnable grammar with production rules to build synthesizable monomers and polymers.
MIT researchers design a robot that has a trick or two up its sleeve.
A new technique compares the reasoning of a machine-learning model to that of a human, so the user can see patterns in the model’s behavior.
Study finds genome loops don’t last long in cells; theories of how loops control gene expression may need to be revised.
MIT engineers Edward Adelson and Sandra Liu duo develop a robotic gripper with rich sensory capabilities.
A new machine-learning system may someday help driverless cars predict the next moves of nearby drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians in real-time.
MIT CSAIL scientists created an algorithm to solve one of the hardest tasks in computer vision: assigning a label to every pixel in the world, without human supervision.
Since Russell and Burch (1959) suggested the principles of replacement, reduction, and refinement (3Rs) as a foundation for animal research, their influence has only grown in the research community.
Researchers have developed a technique that enables a robot to learn a new pick-and-place task with only a handful of human demonstrations.
Cattle welfare experts rate the welfare of dairy cattle as lower than that of beef cattle, research from the University of Copenhagen shows. For this, 70 leading experts from across the globe rated the common dairy and beef production systems in their own country.
A new approach could make it possible to detect the elusive Unruh effect in hours, rather than billions of years.
The field of veterinary oncology has advanced greatly over the last decade, and veterinarians have an important role in advising owners on whether and when certain treatments, such as radiotherapy, are indicated for dogs and cats.
New technology could help generate hydrogen and chemical industry ingredients.
PhD candidate Jonathan Zong found a lack of systems that earn and maintain public trust in large-scale online research — so he made one himself.
Their model’s predictions should help researchers improve ocean climate simulations and hone the design of offshore structures.
Scientists have created a design and fabrication tool for soft pneumatic actuators for integrated sensing, which can power personalized health care, smart homes, and gaming.
Researchers create a mathematical framework to evaluate explanations of machine-learning models and quantify how well people understand them.
