In the 1960s animated sitcom The Jetsons, George Jetson commutes to work in his family-size flying car, which miraculously transforms into a briefcase at the end of the trip.
New study uses single-cell RNA sequencing technology to find a target for treating EoE. Findings also raise questions about the dietary supplement butyrate.
New research from Binghamton University, State University of New York, could make it easier to track and process suspicious activity in surveillance footage.
A new, free, open-source software reliably predicts how damage from hurricanes, ice storms, earthquakes, and other extreme events will restrict power delivery from utility grids. The Severe Contingency Solver for Electric Power Transmission is the only software available—commercially or open-source—that reliably supports analysis of extreme events that cause widespread damage.
In a new study, researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory, together with collaborators in France and Russia, have created a permanent static “negative capacitor,” a device believed to have been in violation of physical laws until about a decade ago.
The San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) at the University of California San Diego announced today the appointment of Melissa Cragin as Chief Strategist for SDSC’s Research Data Services (RDS) group, effective immediately.
The widely used CyberInfrastructure for Phylogenetic REsearch (CIPRES) science gateway, based at the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC), has been awarded a one-year Internet2 grant funded by the NSF to give users AWS cloud access.
In a groundbreaking effort, seismology researchers have conducted a continent-scale survey for seismic signatures of industrial activity in the Amazon Web Services commercial cloud (AWS), then rapidly downloaded the results without storing raw data or needing a local supercomputer.
There's been a rapid resurgence of interest in understanding the energy cost of computing. Recent advances in this "thermodynamics of computation" are summarized in a new review published in the Journal of Physics A.
Development of a virtual reality-like projection system to study insect vision could eventually provide the U.S. Air Force with a new type of navigation system.
The team of Northern Arizona University researchers received a $125,000 grant from the U.S. Air Force Research Lab to study how to apply technology to secure blockchain networks, which attract terrorists, criminals and black market businesses who can remain anonymous.
Engineers developed 3D printed metamaterials with unique optical properties going beyond what is possible using conventional materials. The fabrication methods developed by the researchers demonstrate the potential, both present and future, of 3D printing to expand the range of optical devices used in instrumentation and telecommunications.
Precision Therapeutics Inc. today announced the completion of its merger with Helomics Holding Corporation (“Helomics”), which has become the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, providing proprietary data- driven precision medicine solutions for women’s oncology by harnessing the knowledge gained from the patient’s own living tumor using the power of artificial intelligence (AI) technology.
The world finals of this year’s International Collegiate Programming Championship ended today in Porto, Portugal. MIPT team Shock Content featuring Andrey Sergunin, Ilya Stepanov, and Evgeny Belykh took 10th place and earned a bronze medal by solving seven problems. It also placed seventh in the ICPC Challenge held by Huawei as part of the finals.
Western Illinois University Department of Computer Sciences Associate Professor Justin Ehrlich received funding for the development of a virtual reality (VR) program designed to improve social competencies for students with high functioning autism and learning disabilities.
Moscow has been selected as the venue for the International Collegiate Programming Contest in June 2020. ICPC is the oldest and most prestigious competitive programming event worldwide. Next year’s finals will be organized by the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology with the support of RDI Creative.
Research released by a team at Georgia Institute of Technology, where researchers looked into the impact of government policies put in place to reduce the amount of electronics waste filling up landfills.
These strange bacteria conduct electricity through a structure never before seen in nature -- a structure scientists can co-opt to miniaturize electronics, create powerful-yet-tiny batteries, build pacemakers without wires and develop a host of other medical advances.
The latest social robots can "read" our emotions in real-time, setting up applications in health care, particularly mental health.
