2+ day, 9+ hour ago   (531+ words) New research finds there is no substitute for real-world observations, but that — under the right circumstances — AI-generated images can be used to improve the performance of computer models used for species identification and biodiversity monitoring. In the study, North Carolina…...

2+ day, 12+ hour ago   (238+ words) The federally funded research, published in Nature Methods, addresses a long-standing challenge in neuroscience and neuropathology: how to continuously observe biological processes that unfold over hours, days and even weeks in the brain. Researchers say the study demonstrates the ability…...

2+ day, 14+ hour ago   (314+ words) Functional magnetic resonance imaging, or fMRI, gives researchers a powerful way to study brain activity. But the scans can be incredibly noisy for patients and research subjects, with peak sound levels reaching 120 to 138 decibels - about as loud as a jackhammer....

Owing in large part to the increased…...

2+ day, 17+ hour ago   (331+ words) Because many natural and industrial processes rely on the transport of bubbles and droplets through fluids, the behavior of ordinary air bubbles and water droplets has been well documented. Assistant Professor Cosan Daskiran - a faculty member at the Thomas J. Watson…...

2+ day, 19+ hour ago   (418+ words) Mirage News The University of Exeter has collaborated with Google DeepMind, becoming among the first researchers in the world to test a new platform which contain predictions for the effects of 9 billion genetic variants - every single letter change in the…...

2+ day, 23+ hour ago   (823+ words) Researchers at the Department of Energy's (DOE) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have developed an artificial intelligence framework that helps researchers use atomic force microscopes to identify important nanoscale features while autonomously targeting the most informative areas of a sample…...

3+ day, 13+ hour ago   (634+ words) More than two decades after scientists first sequenced the entire human genome — all 3 billion "letters," or base pairs, of DNA code — the meaning of much of this code remains a mystery. Researchers at UC Berkeley have created a new genomic…...

3+ day, 17+ hour ago   (228+ words) Researchers have captured the moment two DNA molecules zip together, overcoming their identical negative charges to pair up, solving a mechanism that has puzzled scientists for more than 20 years. Using high-powered atomic force microscopy, scientists at the University of Sheffield…...

3+ day, 18+ hour ago   (1674+ words) Climate researchers face the widest political divide of any field Trust in scientists in the UK is strong overall, with 63% indicating they have high trust in scientists in general - but a major new study finds this trust is closely shaped…...
