Medical Xpress / AI tools poised to transform global TB detection
Researchers have unveiled new AI tools, from smartphone cough analysis to child-friendly screening systems, which could transform how tuberculosis is detected, monitored and prevented.
Medical Xpress / Singing mice speak volumes: Brain mechanisms behind song production explored in new research
All mice squeak, but only some sing. Scotinomys teguina, aka Alston's singing mice, hail from the cloud forests of Costa Rica. More than 2,000 miles north, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) neuroscientists study these ...
Medical Xpress / Protein abnormality illuminates communication struggles in autism
A DGIST research team identified that the mutation of the collybistin protein found in autistic patients weakens the brain's inhibitory synaptic function and leads to communication deficiencies. The results of this research ...
Phys.org / How to watch the last supermoon of the year
The last supermoon of the year will shine soon in December skies.
Medical Xpress / Childhood trauma may lead to more difficult births
Women who have been exposed to multiple traumatic experiences during childhood have more difficult births than others. They are much more likely to need emergency cesarean sections, suffer major hemorrhages or pre-eclampsia, ...
Phys.org / 'Baby boom' of Bonelli's eagles during COVID lockdown unmasks impact of human activity
Thanks to more than three decades of monitoring, researchers at the University of Granada reveal how human absence during the pandemic impacted the reproduction of a threatened species: the Bonelli's eagle
Tech Xplore / Small changes make some AI systems more brain-like than others
Artificial intelligence systems that are designed with a biologically inspired architecture can simulate human brain activity before ever being trained on any data, according to new research from Johns Hopkins University.
Tech Xplore / Advances in spacecraft control: New algorithm guarantees precision under extreme disturbances
An international team of researchers has unveiled a spacecraft attitude control system that can guarantee precise stabilization and maneuvering within a predefined time, even under extreme and unpredictable space disturbances.
Medical Xpress / A molecule opens a breach in HIV, providing access to its reservoirs
An international team led by two Université de Montréal researchers has unveiled how a molecule capable of opening the "shell" of HIV improves the elimination of infected cells.
Phys.org / Asteroid loaded with amino acids offers new clues about the origin of life on Earth
One of the most elegant theories about the origins of life on our planet is that it was kick-started by a delivery from outer space. This idea suggests that prebiotic molecules—the building blocks of life—were transported ...
Phys.org / Sugar-coated sensor sniffs out look-alike molecules in the air
Scientists have designed a new type of gas sensor that can tell apart "mirror image" versions of the same smell molecule, even at very low concentrations. By coating carbon nanotubes with custom-built sugar-based receptors, ...
Phys.org / Funding agencies can end profit-first science publishing
Funding organizations can fix the science publishing system—which currently puts profit first and science second—according to research published on the arXiv preprint server.
