Puppyhood and adolescence diet may influence the incidence of canine chronic gastrointestinal problems later in life, according to a study carried out at the University of Helsinki.
Scientists applied machine vision models and were able to deduce from the context of an image if it pertained to the sale of a live animal. These methods make it possible to flag the posts which may be selling animals illegally.
A new AI algorithm developed by researchers at the Finnish Center for Artificial Intelligence is aimed at visualizing datasets as clearly as possible.
Measurements clearly indicate that whenever UV lamps used for disinfection were switched on, both gas and small particle concentrations increased considerably.
Life on Earth has adapted to a bright day always being followed by a darker night. Due to light pollution, the natural dark is nevertheless a diminishing natural resource.
African rhino numbers are declining at unsustainable rates in core state-run parks which is why more than half the continent's remaining rhinos are now on private land.
A large-scale biobank-based study performed in Finland has discovered several new disease genes as well as new insights on how known genetic factors affect disease.
New results from the FinnGen study demonstrate the undeniable benefits of Finnish health research environment for genomic research.
A study conducted at the University of Helsinki, Finland set out to determine how 13 dog breeds performed in various cognitive tests.
A new study shows that North American bird communities containing functionally diverse species have changed less under climate change during the past 50 years than functionally simple communities.
The share of walking in cities should increase, but challenges remain. A recent study by the Digital Geography Lab group reveals what effect age, winter conditions and the service network have on the 15-minute city.
According to a new Finnish study, birds overwintering on arable land experienced fastest northward shifts due to climate change compared with birds of the same species overwintering in urban and forest habitats.
Researchers have developed an optimized genetic test for ovarian cancer, which helps accurately target an effective but expensive medication.
RIKEN chemists in Japan have discovered a fluorescent organic compound that avoids "Hund’s rule," a quantum-mechanical principle that has limited the energy efficiency of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) for nearly a century, and which could lead to major advances in OLED technology.
Researchers at the University of Michigan have learned why flow batteries, using the metal cerium in a sulfuric acid electrolyte, fall short on voltage, a discovery that could pave the way for better battery chemistry in the future.
Organ development has been modeled in the lab by selectively activating signaling pathways in the embryo
The RIKEN Prediction Science Laboratory in Japan has developed technology that uses machines to detect tsunami impacts in less than a second.
Middle-aged adults living with frailty in the community were more likely to find accessing health care difficult during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic than their older counterparts, says McMaster University researcher Lauren Griffith.
New Year’s Day is a busy time for Canadian lakeshores and riverbanks, as daredevils gather to take the plunge — the polar bear plunge.
Long-term consumption of Allura Red food dye can be a potential trigger of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, says McMaster researcher Waliul Khan, using experimental animal models of IBD.
