Neural Network Recognizes Molecular Handwriting
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.
Alzheimer’s Disease Study Suggests Viral Beginnings
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.
Computer diagnoses Parkinson’s with behavioral tracking
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.
The beating brain: A video captures the organ’s rhythmic pulsations
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.
Nanoscale Kirigami Technique Could Enable Microchip-Based 3-D Optical Devices
Nanoscale Kirigami has taken off as a field of research in the last few years; the approach is based on the ancient arts of origami (making 3-D shapes by folding paper) and kirigami (which allows cutting as well as folding) but applied to flat materials at the nanoscale, measured in billionths of a meter.
