Phys.org / Study urges shift in how success is measured for care leavers
A new study led by the Rees Centre in the University of Oxford's Department of Education challenges how success is defined for young people leaving the care system, revealing that official metrics often fail to reflect what ...
Phys.org / Explainable AI reveals how chemical sensors detect odors
NIMS has been developing chemical sensors as a key component of artificial olfaction technology (olfactory sensors), with the aim of putting this technology into practical use. In a new study, explainable AI (XAI) was used ...
Medical Xpress / Father–son team integrates AI into cancer research
For more than three decades, USF Distinguished University Professor Dmitry Goldgof in the Bellini College of Artificial Intelligence, Cybersecurity and Computing has been at the forefront of artificial intelligence research. ...
Phys.org / Zebrafish larvae's camouflage control traced to specific eye and brain cells
The ability of some animals to dynamically change color to match the brightness of their surroundings is one of nature's great survival tools, allowing flatfish to blend into sandy seabeds, frogs to adjust to the bottom of ...
Medical Xpress / AI model powers skin cancer detection across diverse populations
Researchers at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine have developed a new approach for identifying individuals with skin cancer that combines genetic ancestry, lifestyle and social determinants of health ...
Phys.org / How a major Bay Area earthquake could endanger health care access
No one knows when the next major earthquake will strike. In the meantime, researchers are working to understand how these events could disrupt access to health care in densely populated regions—and how best to prepare for ...
Medical Xpress / Zero-cost, AI-driven digital detection identifies Alzheimer's without additional clinician time
Few primary care practices are designed for the timely detection of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. The limited time that primary care clinicians are able to spend with patients, the need to focus on the health ...
Phys.org / Climate's impact on earthquakes: Lake Turkana study highlights connections between tectonics and human evolution
Lake Turkana in northern Kenya is often called the cradle of humankind. Home to some of the earliest hominids, its fossil-rich basin has helped scientists piece together the story of human evolution. Now, researchers from ...
Medical Xpress / Study links ultra-processed food intake to prediabetes in young adults
More than half of calories consumed in the United States come from ultra-processed foods (UPFs), items like fast food and packaged snacks that are often high in sodium, sugar and unhealthy fats. In adults, research has clearly ...
Phys.org / Sex-determination gene in bees and ants identified
Most species on Earth exist as two biological sexes, and the exchange of genes between males and females is vital for their survival. Yet, what actually determines whether an individual develops into a male or female varies ...
Medical Xpress / AI-based analysis of routine CT scans may also reveal weakened bones
Computed tomography (CT) scans of the chest, abdomen, and spine, taken originally to detect problems such as kidney stones or growths on the lungs, can be repurposed through artificial intelligence (AI) to catch signs of ...
Phys.org / Clear frameworks are key to helping schools tackle racism
New research into racism in South Australian schools highlights that clear, consistent frameworks support safer, more inclusive school communities.
