In a recent study, researchers sent signals from a sensor detecting tactile patterns associated with different Braille letters that were received by brain organoids. Individual organoids were able to correctly decode them 61 percent of the time but three organoids boosted accuracy to 83 percent.
Ovarian cancer is devastating, five-year survival rate under 30%, when detected after it has spread. New basic research may improve that.
If we're trapped in a false vacuum, there's still hope to break free of cosmic lockdown
Pupils don't just respond to what we look at, they respond based on how we evaluate
A new paper correlates stroke to glioma growth, linking brain injury to malignant brain tumors.
Jurassic monsters sometimes needed to vomit. When they did, they went to shore.
Researchers have developed a composite film that combines electromagnetic interference shielding, infrared stealth, and high mechanical strength using carbon nanotube fibers and MXene.
Tumor-suppressing damage control protects tissue from cancer, but the "guardian paradox" proposes that chronic activity by those same protective programs cause harm.
Pregnant women have experienced exotic food cravings since recorded history began. This may be why.
An MRI changes whether a biopsy is needed and where the needles go. Is there a reason they aren't used more often?
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections in hospitals are a worry but a new program implemented in 106 intensive care units (ICUs) and 87 non-ICUs at 94 hospitals caused cases to plummet.
A new paper posits that we may have taken over the world due to a mobility advantage; heel-and-toe walking.
A new paper believes that in an already seismically active Arctic region, permafrost degradation can weaken the ice that helps to bind fractures within rock.
