An Unexpected Result: The Mammalian Inner Ear Is a Striking Example of Convergent Evolution
University of Vienna

A new study reveals the surprisingly convergent evolution in the inner ear of mammals. An international research team led by Nicole Grunstra from the University of Vienna and Anne Le Maître from the Konrad Lorenz Institute (KLI) for Evolution and Cognition Research (Klosterneuburg) showed that a group of highly divergent mammals known as Afrotheria and distantly related, but ecologically very similar mammals independently evolved similar inner ear shapes. The study has just been published in the prestigious journal Nature Communications.

How AI Can Help Stop the Spread of Misinformation
University of California San Diego

Machine learning algorithms significantly outperform human judgment in detecting lying during high-stakes strategic interactions, according to new research from the University of California San Diego’s Rady School of Management. The study can have major implications for the spread of misinformation, as machine learning could be used to bolster efforts to reduce fictitious content on major platforms like YouTube, Tik-Tok and Instagram.

دراسة لمايو كلينك تكتشف ارتباطًا بين خلايا الدم البيضاء المصابة بخلل وزيادة خطر التعرض للورم الميلانيني
Mayo Clinic

الأشخاص الذين لديهم فرط في خلايا الدم البيضاء المستنسخة، أو الخلايا الليمفاوية، التي تعيق أجهزتهم المناعية - وهي حالة تُسمى كثرة الخلايا الليمفاوية وحيدة النسيلة - قد يكونوا أكثر عرضة للإصابة بالعديد من المضاعفات الصحية، ومنها الورم الميلانيني، وهو شكل من أشكال سرطان الجلد. نُشرت النتائج التي توصل إليها علماء مايو كلينك في ورقة بحثية جديدة في مجلة علم الأورام السريري.
