The use of robots in kitchens could help alleviate labor shortages and provide a better work-life balance for employees. Robots like Flippy can assist with tasks such as frying, while also reducing costs and improving customer experience.
Researchers use AI to predict moisture damage in asphalt pavements, enabling optimized material selection and reduced maintenance costs. The study's findings have significant implications for the nation's roads and bridges, which require over $1 trillion in repairs and maintenance.
Researchers have discovered how a CBD compound can bind to cannabinoid receptors, mitigating the negative effects of THC on pain management while preserving its benefits. The study opens new avenues for harnessing THC's beneficial effects with reduced side effects.
A new study reveals that US methamphetamine mortality rose 61-fold between 1999 and 2021, highlighting a growing crisis in addiction and public health. The study found that women's deaths from methamphetamine are accelerating, while men's rates have plateaued, suggesting a need for targeted harm reduction efforts.
Researchers found that words like 'results-oriented' and 'ambitious' attract applicants with a tendency to bend rules, increasing the risk of unethical behavior. However, in sales roles, narcissistic tendencies can be beneficial.
A study by University of Mississippi researchers found that female CEOs significantly outperform males in the relational category of corporate social responsibility. This aligns with psychology studies showing women tend to be more nurturing and interdependent. The research also suggests that CEO gender influences CSR priorities, parti...
Researchers at the University of Mississippi have developed a new cancer treatment method that uses glycopolymers to coat nanoparticles, reducing immune response and increasing drug delivery. This breakthrough could lead to more effective cancer treatments with reduced side effects.
A recent study found kratom to be widely available across the US, with over 72% of tobacco specialty stores selling the substance. Researchers attribute this ease of access as a major risk factor for substance use and highlight concerns about kratom's potential health risks.
A study published in the International Journal of Developmental Disabilities found that emotion-focused coping increases resilience in parents of neurodevelopmentally disabled children. This approach helps manage stress and improves quality of life by regulating a person's emotional response rather than solving problems directly.
A new laser vibration sensing technology can detect landmines in the ground much faster than previous techniques, reducing costs and improving safety. The technology uses a combination of laser and acoustic sensing to detect buried objects with greater accuracy.
A study by a University of Mississippi professor found that the vocalizations of baby chickens, known as 'peeps' and 'whistles', can indicate stress levels in avian animals. This breakthrough could improve animal welfare in the poultry industry and lead to more humane practices.
A comprehensive study found that patients with rheumatoid arthritis pay an average of $3,383 more per year on healthcare expenditures than those without the disorder. The disease also reduces mobility and quality of life, highlighting the need for better support systems and policies.
A recent study published in Argumentation and Advocacy found that learning to debate builds comprehension, research skills, and empathy. Researchers argue that debating offers skills that could make students better able to navigate the challenges of AI, such as increased reading comprehension and critical thinking abilities.
Researchers have created a complex molecule in space-like conditions, finding glyceric acid, a key building block of life on Earth. This discovery fills an important gap in understanding the origin of life, suggesting that molecules essential for life may be more common in space than previously thought.
