Most computers run on microchips, but what if we've been overlooking a simpler, more elegant computational tool all this time ...

Genetic testing company 23andMe has declared bankruptcy. What does it mean for the genetic data of 15 million people who had paid to find out about their heritage and what could third parties do with ...

A new NASA-supported study shows how an AI tool can predict chemical compositions from photos with high accuracy.

VAEs also introduce mathematical constraints that accommodate computational models called large neural networks. To continue with the example of large language models, these neural networks can be ...

Researchers have shed new light on how a type of heart valve disease—aortic valve stenosis—progresses differently in males and females. The research paves the way for treatments that can be tailored ...

Scientists discovered humans descended from two ancient populations, not one. These groups split 1.5 million years ago.

An AI model trained on dozens of hours of real-world conversation accurately predicts human brain activity and shows that ...

Her mood changed when the results came back. The test deemed each of the Petersens’ five embryos abnormal, meaning their clinic—like many in the industry—refused to use any of them. “It was like, ...

Yes, you read that right. The CL1 fuses human brain cells with silicon to create Synthetic Biological Intelligence (SBI), a smarter, more energy-efficient, and eerily human-like alternative to ...

Image by UN biodiversity via Flickr (CC BY 2.0) In recent years, science has achieved the cataloging and digitizing of the genetic makeup of a large number of wild plant and animal species around ...

An Australian start-up has launched the "first commercialised biological computer" made of human brain cells at a conference in Barcelona. The team behind it believe it could be used as a type ...
