During the COVID-19 lockdown, global shipping activities were significantly reduced. This provided a unique opportunity to study the impact of reduced marine traffic on nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ) pollution, a key indicator of shipping emissions. Satellite data from TROPOMI showed a substantial decre
Ever wished we could tell someone's age just by looking at their brain scan? Scientists often use T1-weighted structural MRI to do this. But a new study mixed things up by combining structural MRI and diffusion MRI. They created a smart model that could see both the big brain features and tiny detai
When people finish therapy for bulimia-spectrum eating disorders, like bulimia nervosa, they often struggle to keep up the skills they learned. Despite going through an intense treatment called CBT-E, many see their condition worsen again. This is a big problem, and one possible solution is using di
In the bustling city of Dallas, Texas, a significant construction project is underway. Lincoln Property Company has begun work on a new industrial park, Brookhollow Business Center, close to Love Field. This development involves transforming a 17-acre truck terminal site on Empire Central Drive into
Imagine trying to guess whether a spot on a slide is cancerous or not. It's a tough job, especially when you have a lot of slides but no answers to check your guesses against. That's the challenge in digital pathology: lots of unlabeled slides, not enough clear answers. Now, think of a smart comput
In forensics, detecting, segmenting, and visualizing latent fingerprints is crucial but time-consuming. Traditional methods involve destructive physical and chemical processes that can take hours to analyze a single fingerprint. Recently, a new laser-based technology has been developed to speed up t
Imagine using sound to transport medicine in your body. Scientists have a new trick up their sleeve. They are using red blood cells (RBCs), which are safe and naturally break down. Usually, attaching tiny particles called nanoparticles (NPs) to RBCs is complicated and involves many steps. However, t
Jared Isaacman, a passionate entrepreneur and aviation lover from New Jersey, has made waves in both technology and air travel. After studying at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, he founded United Bank Card in the 1990s, which handles billions in transactions yearly. Isaacman's interest in avia
Two powerhouse college basketball teams, Gonzaga Bulldogs (3-0) and San Diego State Aztecs (2-0), are set to face off on Monday night. Despite their impressive records, they're approaching this game from different perspectives. Gonzaga, ranked fourth, has been on a roll, crushing top teams like Bayl
Wouldn't it be great to know if your millimeter wave (mmWave) signal is about to get blocked? A new study suggests that this might be possible with something called a liquid time constant (LTC) network. This special tool uses ordinary differential equations, inspired by biology, to predict future si
