Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to revolutionize radiotherapy (RT) by saving time and enhancing quality. However, the adoption of AI in RT still faces hurdles. To tackle this, researchers turned to implementation science to create a framework for designing an AI implementation strateg
Ever wondered how the health of our land affects our societies? Let's explore the fascinating connection between physical, natural, and social sciences. Scientists are delving into critical essays and case studies to understand how societies interact with land degradation and desertification. Imagi
Texas lawmakers have been trying to get death row inmate Robert Roberson III to testify in the Capitol. Roberson was sentenced to death in 2003 for allegedly shaking his daughter to death. His lawyers argue that the science used to convict him is unreliable. Lawmakers were hoping he could testify ab
Let's zoom in on Finland and see how people's religious beliefs affect their views on science and healthcare, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Research shows that those who consider themselves more religious tend to have less positive views on science, tech, and medicine compared to non-reli
Avio, a key player in the European space industry, has signed a big deal with the European Space Agency (ESA). The contract, worth around €350 million, is for upgrading the Vega rocket and its launch facilities. This means more launches and better rockets in the future! The plan includes converting
As 2024 winds down, it's time to look back at the incredible accomplishments in life sciences, with PLOS Biology leading the way. This year has been packed with groundbreaking discoveries and innovative research. Let's take a moment to appreciate the work of the scientists and supporters who made it
2024 was a year to remember for science fiction fans. The genre, known for its mix of advanced tech and human stories, delivered some amazing movies. Big franchises like Alien and Transformers came back strong, while newcomers like Ultraman: Rising showed that great stories can cross borders. Each f
Scientists have been exploring a new way to fight climate change by removing carbon from the oceans using electrochemical systems. These systems use a process called alkalinity-swings to get rid of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC). This can be done in two ways: by releasing carbon dioxide gas or by
On a typical Tuesday morning, Concord High School (CHS) found itself in an unexpected situation. Around 10:45 a. m. , the building's alarms suddenly blared, prompting an evacuation. But this wasn't a fire drill—it was the result of a science experiment gone awry. The school's fire and rescue team wa
Did you know that a simple organic compound called 2, 5-dihydroxyterephthalic acid (H4dhta) can be used to create super conductive materials? Scientists have been using H4dhta to build metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for a while now. But there's something special about the coordination polymers (CPs
