Tech Xplore / Real-world helper exoskeletons come closer to reality with AI training
Georgia Tech researchers are using AI to quickly train exoskeleton devices, making it much more practical to develop, improve, and ultimately deploy wearable robots for people with impaired mobility.
Medical Xpress / Vision can be rebooted in adults with amblyopia, study suggests
Temporarily anesthetizing the retina briefly reverts the activity of the visual system to that observed in early development and enables growth of responses to the amblyopic eye, new research shows.
Tech Xplore / Shrinking materials hold big potential for smart devices, researchers say
Wearable electronics could be more wearable, according to a research team at Penn State. The researchers have developed a scalable, versatile approach to designing and fabricating wireless, internet-enabled electronic systems ...
Phys.org / Open spaces in cities may be hotspots for coyote-human interaction
Open semi-natural settings in urban areas—like parks and golf courses teeming with plants and small mammals—are possible hotspots for interaction between coyotes and humans, a new study suggests.
Phys.org / New type of DNA damage discovered in our cells' mitochondria
A previously unknown type of DNA damage in the mitochondria, the tiny power plants inside our cells, could shed light on how our bodies sense and respond to stress. The findings of the UC Riverside-led study are published ...
Phys.org / Calcite deposit from southern Nevada cave reveals 580,000 years of climate history
Climate history recorded in a calcite deposit in a southern Nevada cave indicates that the hot, arid southwestern United States experienced significant shifts in temperature and rainfall over the last 580,000 years.
Phys.org / Physicists demonstrate the constancy of the speed of light with unprecedented accuracy
In 1887, one of the most important experiments in the history of physics took place. American scientists Michelson and Morley failed to measure the speed of Earth by comparing the speed of light in the direction of Earth's ...
Medical Xpress / Single prime editing system could potentially treat multiple genetic diseases
A team of researchers at the Broad Institute, led by gene-editing pioneer David Liu, has developed a new genome-editing strategy that could potentially lead to a one-time treatment for multiple unrelated genetic diseases.
Medical Xpress / Focused ultrasound passes first test in treatment of pediatric brain cancer
Columbia University researchers are the first to show that focused ultrasound—a noninvasive technique that uses sound waves to enhance the delivery of drugs into the brain—can be safely used in children being treated ...
Tech Xplore / New green homes in the UK put less strain on the grid than models predicted
A study of some of the first net-zero-ready homes in the UK has found that their peak grid power demand is far lower than planners had anticipated. The research confirms that these all-electric homes can significantly cut ...
Medical Xpress / Studies suggest ambient AI saves time, reduces burnout and fosters patient connection
When physicians don't have to type detailed clinical notes while simultaneously talking to their patients, the visit feels different. Eye contact lasts longer, follow-up questions become sharper, and—crucially—clinicians ...
Medical Xpress / Is stomach cancer on the rise in young adults?
Stomach cancer, also referred to as gastric cancer, was once thought of as a disease of older adults. However, it is increasingly affecting people under the age of 50, mirroring a similar shift that is observed with colorectal ...
