Medical Xpress / Pretrained AI could help clinics analyze brain MRIs with few labeled scans
When it comes to medical imaging, a chatbot doesn't know its backside from its elbow. Or, at least, it can't tell a spine from a knee. But if a Boston University research team is successful, a smarter AI system for evaluating ...
Phys.org / Were there tiny dinosaurs? New study explores one of evolution's biggest mysteries
Dinosaurs are famous for being big, from the towering Tyrannosaurus rex to the colossal Apatosaurus. But a new study published today in the journal Evolution by scientists at the American Museum of Natural History and Princeton ...
Phys.org / Study finds climate-driven greening is reshaping East Asia's air pollution
The effects of climate change extend far beyond rising temperatures. As forests and other vegetation respond to a warming world, they also change the amount of biogenic emissions released into the atmosphere, influencing ...
Medical Xpress / Worse menopause symptoms may accompany type 2 diabetes
The type and severity of menopause symptoms can differ greatly among women. A number of earlier studies have suggested various reasons for those differences. A new study suggests that type 2 diabetes mellitus can play a role ...

Medical Xpress / MRI metric identifies early, multifactorial white matter damage in Alzheimer's disease
Alzheimer's disease has traditionally been studied as a condition that primarily affects the brain's gray matter, where neuronal cell bodies are located and some of the disease's most characteristic lesions accumulate. However, ...
Tech Xplore / AI learns to focus like humans to speed up video analysis
Artificial neural networks were originally inspired by the human brain, but they are still far less efficient at processing information. One reason the human brain is so efficient is its ability to focus only on the most ...
Phys.org / A new take on interpreting chemical bond analysis in solids
Researchers from Skoltech, SberUniversity, the M.N. Mikheev Institute of Metal Physics of UB RAS and Ural Federal University have published a review of a novel approach to interpreting chemical bonding in solids. The method ...
