As we get older, our brains shrink, and our thinking skills deteriorate. Scientists have found a new way to study this process using brain age prediction. This study introduces a special deep learning model that can guess someone's age from brain scans. Researchers used data from almost 17, 000 heal

Scientists sought to improve the way medicine, like methotrexate, passes through human skin. They used tiny needles called Dr. Pen microneedles and tiny, biodegradable beads called poly(d, l-lactide-co-glycolide) acid microparticles. These beads came in eight different forms. The team studied the be
Imagine you're walking or climbing stairs while wearing a knee brace. You wouldn't want it to interfere with your movement, right? That's the challenge for exoskeleton designers. They need to make sure their devices don't get in the way during the swing phase of walking or stair climbing. But how mu
In the quiet town of Plainfield, Illinois, a terrible event unfolded on October 14, 2023.
