When you pick up a prescription or get a vaccination, it’s paramount that you trust the medication is safe. In the U.S., a system of laws, procedures, and personal responsibility combine to ensure drug safety, or pharmacovigilance.
Move over, Sonic. There’s a new spin-jumping champion in town – the globular springtail (Dicyrtomina minuta). This diminutive hexapod backflips into the air, spinning to over 60 times its body height in the blink of an eye, and a new study features the first in-depth look at its jumping prowess. Globular springtails are tiny, usually only a couple millimeters in body length.
Scientists who have described in a new study the step-by-step details of a bacterial defense strategy see the mechanism as a promising platform for development of a new genome-editing method.
In the Aug. 28, 2024 issue of Nature, researchers from University of California San Diego in the laboratory of Dr. Kevin King, associate professor of bioengineering and medicine, and a cardiologist at the Sulpizio Cardiovascular Center, report the discovery of a novel mechanism of cardiac inflammation that may expand therapeutic opportunities to prevent heart attacks from becoming heart failure.
Immersive virtual reality could open up a whole new world for people with intellectual disability, enabling them to learn practical life skills much faster without relying on caregivers, according to a new study.
While the use of artificial intelligence (AI) for medical diagnosis is growing, new research by the University of Adelaide has found there are still major hurdles to cover when compared to a clinician. In a paper published in The Lancet Digital Health, Australian Institute for Machine Learning PhD student Lana Tikhomirov, Professor Carolyn Semmler and team from the University of Adelaide, have drawn on external research to investigate what’s known as the ‘AI chasm’.
Yiren Ren's research explores music’s impact on learning, memory, and emotions in two studies. One reveals that familiar music enhances concentration and learning; the other demonstrates that music with a strong emotional tone can reshape the quality of existing memories.
Three recently published studies from Cedars-Sinai investigators have deepened knowledge of how changes in the eye are linked to indicators of Alzheimer’s disease in the brain.
Rutgers University-New Brunswick scientists have discovered a virus that caused a nationwide die-off of superworms, a common food for birds, reptiles, other pets and, more and more so, even for humans as an alternative protein source. In doing so, they pioneered a different way to search for and identify emerging viruses and pathogens in humans, plants and animals.
A team led by University of Washington researchers found that large language models, such as ChatGPT, can make social media bots more sophisticated at evading detection. But these models can also improve systems that detect bots.
