Researchers developed a high-resolution holographic endoscope system that can reconstruct microscopic images without attaching equipment to the fiber bundle. The new endoscope has a diameter of 350 μm and achieves spatial resolution of 850 nm, far smaller than the core size of optical fibers.
A recent ECU study discovered that tRNS can enhance neuroplasticity, allowing the brain to form new pathways and connections. This technology has shown promise as a tool to assist individuals with learning difficulties or neurological conditions.
Research finds dual bronchodilators offer little relief to adults with smoking-related respiratory issues, but no COPD diagnosis. The study highlights the importance of spirometry testing for accurate diagnoses and calls for new therapies for patients without COPD.
Researchers have developed HOFs with large π-conjugated structures, enhancing thermal stability and accelerating electron transfer in redox reactions. However, challenges remain to fully realize their potential, including exploring the effect of morphology on performance and avoiding metal-ligand complex formation.
Researchers identified 'data architecture' as crucial for successful digital transformation, finding that legacy systems hinder integration and adoption. A coherent data architecture enables firms to automate data processing, integrate large datasets, and develop machine learning models.
A Tel Aviv University study challenges the widely-held assumption that COVID-19 originated from bats, instead highlighting their highly effective immune system. The researchers found that many reported findings on bat-borne viruses are based on antibody presence or PCR tests rather than actual virus isolation.
Researchers developed a mobile phone app using AI to accurately detect COVID-19 infection in people's voices, outperforming lateral flow tests. The app achieved an accuracy of 89% and can be used for remote testing, enabling rapid screening of populations.
Researchers identified a previously unknown p53-SET-PP2A feedback loop that can be utilized for cancer therapy. The combination of p53 activator and SET antagonist demonstrated synergistic effects on tumor suppression, showing promise for a new cancer treatment strategy.
Researchers aim to understand why many programs do not deliver on the promise of quality education and highlight examples of effective ones. The study will track 600 Queensland children from early education to school years, informing policy and practice that promotes development and learning.
A new study found that pregnant women taking fish oil and vitamin D supplements had a lower risk of their children developing croup. Children whose mothers took the supplements had an 11% risk of croup compared to those who did not take them, with a significant decrease in risk.
A new study from the University of Surrey found that simple measures such as green screens, air purifiers, and school street initiatives can significantly reduce air pollution levels in classrooms and playgrounds. The research shows that these measures can cut outdoor and indoor exposure to toxins by up to 57% and 36% respectively.
A recent study published in Science Advances reveals a correlation between genomic attributes and life history traits in Neoavian birds. The researchers found that generation time and body mass are associated with the length of orthologous microsatellites, transposable elements, and DNA deletions.
