Phys.org / An AI solution to an 80‑year‑old problem has shocked mathematicians
Last week, OpenAI shocked the mathematical community by revealing that one of its internal artificial intelligence (AI) models had found a counterexample to a famous conjecture made by legendary Hungarian mathematician Paul ...
Phys.org / Trophic rewilding by large herbivores supports insect diversity, scientists find
Insects are declining across Europe. Czech scientists have determined this decline can be mitigated by returning large ungulates—horses, aurochs cattle, and wisents—to landscapes. This has been shown by a recent study by ...
Tech Xplore / Inspired by armadillos, this soft robotic shell flips from flexible to fortress in an instant
Researchers have drawn inspiration from armadillos to create a protective structure that responds to external threats by curling into a protective ball to protect electronic devices or other payloads. The structure is designed ...
Medical Xpress / Cumulative radiation exposure poses hidden risk for older adults in research studies, new study warns
A new study highlights a critical gap: most clinical research studies that use imaging techniques such as amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) scans do not account for the radiation participants have already received ...
Medical Xpress / AI and simulations cut advanced brain MRI time by up to 90%
Two researchers at the Institute for Neurosciences (IN), a joint center of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and the Miguel Hernández University of Elche (UMH), have developed a new strategy based on artificial ...
Tech Xplore / Can AI really be conscious? Researchers call for more rigorous scientific standards
As artificial intelligence systems become increasingly sophisticated, questions once confined to philosophy are rapidly entering mainstream scientific and public debate: Can AI possess consciousness? Could animals, organoids, ...
Tech Xplore / Optical device uses humidity to unlock hidden information and offers new option for data storage
Engineers at the University of California San Diego have developed an optical device that reveals hidden images and changes colors in response to different levels of humidity. The technology, published in Light: Science & ...
Medical Xpress / Years after polyp removal, gut microbiome changes may still shape colorectal cancer risk
More than a decade after removal of an adenoma—a precancerous mass—from the colon, alterations to the gut microbiome and metabolites remain and may drive heightened risk of colorectal cancer (CRC), according to a study led ...
Medical Xpress / How lifestyle can protect childhood cancer survivors
Healthy lifestyles can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and other complications in childhood cancer survivors. These are the findings of two new international studies.
Phys.org / Tiny on-chip circuit could power next-generation quantum and AI technologies
Researchers from Monash University have developed a breakthrough nanoscale circuit that can generate, direct, and read light-based information, all on a single chip.
Phys.org / Pandemic loan fraud pumped housing prices, research indicates
For Americans dreaming of owning a home, this decade has been brutal. From the end of 2019 to the end of 2022, the median sales price for homes sold in the U.S. soared 35%, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. ...
Medical Xpress / CAR T moves beyond cancer, targeting autoimmune disease with immune system reset
At age 49, Jan Janisch-Hanzlik's multiple sclerosis was destroying her freedom to live the life she wanted. She gave up her active nursing job for a desk role. Frequent falls made her afraid to carry her grandchildren. She ...
