A study at Hospital for Special Surgery found that patients who received one-on-one education with a physical therapist before knee or hip replacement surgery were more satisfied and better prepared for recovery. They also needed fewer physical therapy sessions in the hospital.
Researchers from MIPT and MSU created a computer model predicting agrochemical activity using machine learning and Kohonen self-organizing maps. The model showed high predictive power, accurately classifying molecules into pesticides or plant growth regulators with 87% accuracy.
