Phys.org / Fungi help lock carbon into Arctic fjord sediments
Arctic fjords are among the most efficient natural systems for absorbing and storing carbon long term. However, as the Arctic is warming about four times faster than the global average, fjord ecosystems are changing rapidly. ...
Phys.org / Genome-wide analysis uncovers clues to Faroese ancestral history
Genome sequencing has revealed insights into how current-day residents of the Faroe Islands can trace their ancestry to a North Atlantic founder population and how evolutionary forces have shaped their genomes since. The ...
Phys.org / Quantum hyperdimensional computing can work 500 times faster than other methods
Cleveland Clinic researchers are unlocking quantum computing's full potential through the creation of a new computing paradigm inspired by the human brain. Fabio Cumbo, Ph.D., research associate in the lab of Daniel Blankenberg, ...
Medical Xpress / Multilingual benchmark evaluates how well AI interprets clinical text and health records in nine languages
Researchers at Mass General Brigham recently developed BRIDGE, a multilingual benchmark that evaluates how well large language models (LLMs) understand clinical patient care text, including language used in electronic health ...
Phys.org / Bringing ancient light-sensing proteins back to life
Resurrecting dinosaurs using DNA retrieved from a mosquito trapped in amber is a great movie plot, though it's less likely to happen in the real world. However, researchers have been trying to unlock the secrets behind the ...
Phys.org / AI teaches asset traders not to sweat the small stuff
Financial markets are governed by a combination of rational and irrational forces, statistical probabilities and "animal spirits." It takes fluency in both to understand the market, let alone beat it. Yet market actors, including ...
Tech Xplore / Hydroplaning risk rises with speed and shallow water but drops past 10 mm, study finds
As summer approaches, you might be planning a road trip. A recent study from the University of Georgia explores how you can stay safe while driving in the rain. Vehicles can hydroplane when water gathers on a road, causing ...
Phys.org / A flexible graphene-based neural interface can 'speak and listen' to the brain
Neural interfaces are devices that can detect or modulate neuronal activity when placed in contact with the brain. They are already used to treat various conditions related to the nervous system. However, current technologies ...
Medical Xpress / With neuronal data, AI models predict grammar, meaning and context of spoken sentences
By applying machine-learning models to single-cell brain recordings taken from humans in conversation, a research team identified both individual and collective neuronal activity that reflected key features of language. The ...
Phys.org / Five new springtail species discovered in China
There is a Chinese saying that east or west, Guilin scenery is the best. Guilin and Chongqing, located in western China, are famous for their many mountains and rivers. They also harbor unique flora and fauna, such as the ...
Medical Xpress / An experimental molecule 'reprograms' the brain's defenses against Alzheimer's disease
A team has identified an experimental molecule capable of "reprogramming" the brain's immune cells to restore part of their protective function against Alzheimer's disease. The study, published in the journal Cell Death and ...
Tech Xplore / Upsampling method sharpens AI vision with up to 16 times less GPU memory
From facial recognition on smartphones to humanoid robots, computer vision technology, which serves as the eyes of artificial intelligence (AI), is widely used in daily life. A joint research team from KAIST and international ...
