Protect the child, save the adult: An opportunity to cut welfare costs by nearly 40%
University of South Australia

New research* from the University of South Australia shows that people who have suffered child abuse or neglect are three times more likely to access government income support payments in early adulthood, underlining the costly and long-term effects of adverse early life experiences.

Butterflies accumulate enough static electricity to attract pollen without contact, new research finds
University of Bristol

Butterflies and moths collect so much static electricity whilst in flight, that pollen grains from flowers can be pulled by static electricity across air gaps of several millimetres or centimetres.

A New Way to Make Element 116 Opens the Door to Heavier Atoms
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory

Researchers at Berkeley Lab’s 88-Inch Cyclotron successfully made superheavy element 116 using a beam of titanium-50. That milestone sets the team up to attempt making the heaviest element yet: 120.

Using AI, CIPHER bird flu study shows greater antibody evasion in newer H5N1 strains
University of North Carolina at Charlotte

University of North Carolina at Charlotte scholars have found evidence that the latest variants of H5N1 influenza — commonly known as avian or bird flu — are better at evading antibodies, including those of humans, than previous iterations of the virus.

Mini lungs make major COVID-19 discoveries possible
Sanford Burnham Prebys

Scientists at Sanford Burnham Prebys, University of California San Diego and their international collaborators have reported that more types of lung cells can be infected by SARS-CoV-2 than previously thought, including those without known viral receptors.

Newswise: Nonlinear Encoding in Diffractive Optical Processors Based on Linear Materials

Nonlinear Encoding in Diffractive Optical Processors Based on Linear Materials
Chinese Academy of Sciences

Researchers explored nonlinear information encoding in diffractive processors based on linear materials. They revealed that simpler-to-implement phase encoding matches the accuracy of data repetition strategies across various test datasets. While data repetition-based diffractive blocks cannot provide optical analogs to fully-connected or convolutional layers employed in digital neural networks, they are effective in enhancing inference accuracy. This research provides insights into the interplay between linear material-based diffractive systems and nonlinear encoding strategies in visual information processors.

Study Evaluates Treatment Interventions for Severe Obesity in Adolescents
Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago

Adolescents with severe obesity who received meal-replacement therapy plus financial incentives experienced a greater reduction in body mass index compared to those who received meal replacement therapy alone, according to recent findings published in JAMA Pediatrics. Justin Ryder, PhD, Vice Chair of Research for the Department of Surgery at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago and Associate Professor of Surgery and Pediatrics at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, was a co-author of the study.

Hackensack Meridian JFK Johnson Rehabilitation Institute Research Outlines Powerful Benefits of Aerobic Exercise for Stroke Survivors
Hackensack Meridian Health

JFK Johnson research studies have found that survivors of serious stroke could reduce their chances of dying within the year by 76 percent, and reduce hospital readmissions within the year by 22 percent. Their research found that a comprehensive program combining stroke rehabilitation and cardiac rehabilitation significantly improved cardiac performance and overall function, including mobility, self-care, and cognition. Another JFK Johnson study found that cardiac rehabilitation could increase the ability of stroke survivors to live independently.
