Prior exposure to one strain of influenza virus may weaken children's ability to mount an effective antibody response against their subsequent exposure to a different flu strain, according to a study led by Weill Cornell ...
Phys.org / Student serves up fresh solutions to the pancake problem
David Cutler is in the spotlight for his work on a tasty-sounding mathematics problem. In January, the New York Times featured a research paper authored by Cutler and Neil Sloane, the founder of The On-line Encyclopedia of ...
Medical Xpress / Could a hot cup of matcha dial down the 'sneeze switch' in allergic rhinitis?
There's now another reason to love Japan's famous matcha: A study in mice suggests that the green tea powder could reduce the need to sneeze in people with nasal allergies.
Tech Xplore / Hybrid AI planner turns images into robot action plans
MIT researchers have developed a generative artificial intelligence-driven approach for planning long-term visual tasks, like robot navigation, that is about twice as effective as some existing techniques. Their method uses ...
Tech Xplore / Facing the music: Detecting dangerous driving through AI facial analysis
Researchers from Edith Cowan University (ECU) are developing new technology that could change how drunk and dangerous drivers are identified. Using a single 3D deep learning model, researchers are able to detect three major ...
Tech Xplore / Biohybrid image sensor uses water-based electrolyte to mimic retina's rods and cones
Both image photodetector arrays and retinas are pixelated sensors that dynamically extract various features from the visual scene—e.g., color, brightness, and contrast—before transmitting electrical signals to either ...
Medical Xpress / A 3D printable scaffold to support fast bone growth
A bone-like composite developed at EPFL uses naturally occurring enzymes to accelerate mineralization through an energy-efficient, room-temperature process. The strong, lightweight material shows promise for bone repair applications.
Phys.org / Ultrafast computing: Light-driven logic tops 10 terahertz in WS₂
The future for our computers will literally be at the speed of light. Extremely short light pulses can perform ultrafast logical operations: these are the findings of a study recently published in the journal Nature Photonics. ...
