UT Dallas physics researchers recently published a study in the journal Science that describes the high thermal conductivity of boron arsenide crystals they grew in the lab. From left: study authors Xiaoyuan Liu, Dr. Bing Lv and Dr. Sheng Li.
Quantum computers will need analogous hardware to manipulate quantum information. But the design constraints for this new technology are stringent, and today’s most advanced processors can’t be repurposed as quantum devices. That’s because quantum information carriers, dubbed qubits, have to follow different rules laid out by quantum physics.
Boise State researchers believe graphene foam-enhanced cartilage could one day be used to treat the joint pain caused by osteoarthritis as well as prevent the need for joint replacement. Osteoarthritis is incurable and affects half the U.S. population over the age of 65.
Researchers at Caltech have developed an artificial neural network made out of DNA that can solve a classic machine learning problem: correctly identifying handwritten numbers. The work is a significant step in demonstrating the capacity to program artificial intelligence into synthetic biomolecular circuits.
More than a century after its discovery, no effective prevention or treatment exists for this progressive deterioration of brain tissue, memory and identity. With more people living to older ages, there is a growing need to clarify Alzheimer’s disease risk factors and disease mechanisms and use this information to find new ways in which to treat and prevent this terrible disorder.
Thousands of people do not know they have Parkinson’s disease. Eric Horvitz wants them to be able to find out — before the incurable neurodegenerative disorder progresses to its later stages. In his perfect world, they wouldn’t have to interrupt their daily routines. They could stay in their homes and offices, working on their computers, and their online activity would eventually trigger a message: A visit to the doctor is in order.
A study recently published in the journal Magnetic Resonance in Medicine and co-authored by Stanford life-science research assistant Itamar Terem, then-postdoc Samantha Jane Holdsworth, PhD, (now at the University of Auckland) and several other Stanford colleagues describes a new imaging method that, by means of a kind of strobe-action amplification technique, is able to visually blow up the minute heartbeat-induced pulsations of the brain to produce mind-boggling video sequences such as the one you’ve hopefully taken a peek at here.
