If you are ready to simplify and reduce the time it takes to connect with reporters for the research and innovation at your institution, we are here for you.
Sarcasm is notoriously tricky to convey through text, and the subtle changes in tone that convey sarcasm often confuse computer algorithms as well, limiting virtual assistants and content analysis tools.
The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Health System is spearheading a collaborative effort to investigate dupilumab as a treatment for children with alopecia areata, a disease that causes extensive hair loss.
From lemur poop to good old human poop, our waste has a story to tell. The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory’s Environmental Sample Preparation and Sequencing Facility (ESPSF) has the tools and technology to get to the bottom of genetic mysteries from the natural world. Facility Manager Sarah Owens can help shed light on the quirkier side of genetics.
A recent analysis shows that renewable energy could be a viable option to diesel fuel for science at the South Pole. The analysis deeply explores the feasibility of replacing part of the energy production at the South Pole with renewable sources.
For the past 15 years, niobium has been considered a mediocre material for qubits, which are the carriers of quantum information. But now a group at Stanford University and the University of Chicago has demonstrated a way to create niobium-based qubits that rival the state-of-the-art for their class. By restructuring and reengineering how niobium is incorporated in a component called the Josephson junction, the group developed a qubit that could maintain information for 62 millionths of a second, 150 times longer than its best-performing niobium predecessors.
Researchers have developed a groundbreaking point-of-care detection method for Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a bacterium responsible for a significant number of foodborne illnesses. The new platform, leveraging recombinant polymerase amplification (RPA) and the CRISPR/Cas12a system combined with an immunochromatographic test strip (ICS), offers a low-cost, simple, and visually intuitive solution for the rapid detection of this pathogen in seafood.
Researchers from Binghamton University investigated how spiders listen to their environments through webs and found that the webs match the acoustic particle velocity for a wide range of sound frequencies.
China's Earth Observation (EO) System has seen significant progress, evolving into a sophisticated network of satellites supporting various global applications. This system, vital for sustainable development, promises further advancements with new technologies enhancing its capabilities.
