Medical Xpress / Your smartwatch may be lying to you about how many calories you burned
If you're depending on your smartwatch to tell you the truth about how many calories you burned during a workout—well, don't.
Tech Xplore / Digital brain twins hinge on what living brains reveal, not computing power alone
Researchers from the University of Warwick report that how faithfully we can build a "digital twin" of a human brain depends not only on computing power but fundamentally on how much of the living brain we can measure, validate ...
Phys.org / Our pay is called a 'salary,' but were Roman soldiers really paid in salt?
Every other Wednesday, like clockwork, my salary arrives in my bank account. By Thursday, most of it is gone.
