Medical Xpress / Researchers discover potential new treatment for Parkinson's disease, other neurodegenerative conditions
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common form of neurodegenerative disease and afflicts more than 10 million people worldwide. While current therapies address disease symptoms, they do not prevent the underlying ...
Medical Xpress / Five-agent AI team could speed clinical trial design using real-world patient records
An artificial intelligence system that operates like a collaborative team of medical experts could accelerate clinical trial design, one of the most difficult steps in drug development, according to a new study by Weill Cornell ...
Phys.org / AI system translates protein sequences into text, helping reveal functions of unknown proteins
In a paper published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers from Technion and Tel Aviv University present BetaDescribe, an AI system that translates protein sequences into natural-language descriptions, ...
Medical Xpress / Exploring honey's anti-aging properties in human skin cells
Ongoing research reveals that multifloral honey is a promising candidate for protecting human skin cells from premature aging and cell damage caused by UV radiation, with the potential for future clinical and cosmetic applications.
Phys.org / AI framework could speed battery, combustion and materials research by automating simulations
Computers have made it easier than ever before to design the perfect material for a given problem: Scientists can create a virtual version and simulate how that material will behave. Building these atomically precise simulations, ...
Medical Xpress / 1 in 5 adults make health decisions based on what they see on social media despite widespread mistrust
Every few scrolls, another health expert appears on the screen. While some are genuinely qualified, others simply sound convincing enough to pass as one. With AI-generated content flooding feeds, avoiding such advice is becoming ...
Phys.org / Ancient jaw wound reveals possible violence in Homo sapiens 90,000 years ago
Violence, the care of injured or ill individuals, and funerary behavior are among the most challenging aspects of the human past to reconstruct. A study published in Scientific Reports and led by researchers from the Centro ...
Tech Xplore / New research warns of risks of bias as AI shapes decision-making on offshore energy development
The use of artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly common in deciding where offshore energy projects such as wind farms, oil platforms and pipelines should be placed in the ocean.
Medical Xpress / Proportion of ED visits for suspected suicide down from 2021 to 2025
From 2021 to 2025, the overall proportion of emergency department (ED) visits for suspected suicide attempts among all ED visits for any reason decreased, with the largest declines seen among adolescents and females, according ...
Phys.org / Carbonation, hops and pH: Why safer non-alcoholic beer needs more than bubbles
With careful recipe and process design, non-alcoholic beer can be made more resistant to foodborne pathogens, according to a new study that provides practical guidance on pH, carbonation and hops.
Phys.org / Q&A: How camera-equipped homing pigeons could improve robotic vision in flight
Contrary to common assumptions, pigeons do not lock their eyes in place during flight. Instead, they make slow, subtle eye movements that may help them gather more information about their surroundings.
Medical Xpress / Long-term stroke data reveal stem cell therapy's safety, biological activity over years
Previously unpublished long-term clinical and imaging findings from participants treated with an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neural progenitor cell therapy for chronic ischemic stroke were presented at the ...
