Tech Xplore / New AI method reconstructs architectural lineages to guide heritage conservation
Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) College of Design and Engineering (CDE), led by Professor Heng Chye Kiang (NUS Department of Architecture), have developed a computational framework for reconstructing ...
Medical Xpress / More screen time in childhood associated with better cognitive processing in adolescence
In a study conducted at the Universities of Jyväskylä and Eastern Finland, more screen time since childhood was associated with better cognitive processing in adolescence. According to one of the researchers, we should not ...
Tech Xplore / AI models make choices in part based on the order in which options are presented
Large language models are often asked to help users make choices, from what to cook for dinner to higher-stakes decisions, such as screening job applicants or supporting medical triage. As AI is increasingly integrated into ...
Medical Xpress / Sleep could help identify people at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease at an earlier stage
What if certain signs of the disease were to manifest subtly during sleep, long before the first memory problems appear? This is the line of inquiry being explored by a team of researchers at ULiège.
Medical Xpress / Youth mental health program saves nearly $10 for every dollar invested
An innovative youth mental health service model can improve care and ease pressure on Canada's health care system, a new study led by researchers at McGill University demonstrates.
Phys.org / X-rays: Beyond the Nobel Prize limit
When certain atoms are irradiated with laser light, they can produce a very different kind of laser light: laser pulses with extremely high frequencies in the X-ray range. These laser pulses, which helped achieve record-breaking ...
Phys.org / Webb reveals oxygen-rich dust and water surviving near Milky Way's central black hole
Using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, an international team of astronomers has discovered that dust and water can form and survive surprisingly close to the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky ...
Medical Xpress / Detection of optic nerve inflammation enables earlier multiple sclerosis diagnoses
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common chronic autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. An early and accurate diagnosis is crucial for improving the effectiveness of treatment and reducing nerve damage. To standardize ...
Phys.org / Mathematical model shows how birds create a synchronized dawn chorus
Every morning, groups of birds start singing and chirping around the same time, typically when the sun starts rising. While zoologists have been studying this collective bird behavior, called the dawn chorus, for decades, ...
Medical Xpress / Cells' own abnormal RNA may trigger inflammation during viral infection, challenging 20 years of assumptions
New research led by the Hudson Institute of Medical Research has shown how a cell recognizes that it is infected with a virus to protect itself and surrounding cells or induce inflammation. The discovery, published in Nature ...
Phys.org / Egyptian blue in Iron Age Iran points to ancient connections
Egyptian blue, considered the world's earliest synthetic pigment, was prized for its stable blue hues and served as a common blue paint in Egypt as early as 5,000 years ago, as well as the base material for small items such ...
Phys.org / Historical DNA reveals largetooth sawfish have lost much of their genetic diversity
The genetic diversity of the largetooth sawfish (Pristis pristis), a critically endangered ray, has plummeted over the past century and a half, according to a study published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological ...
