Childhood adversity often leads to mental health issues in teens. Parenting programs in communities can help, but they sometimes have challenges. Technology can make these programs easier to use, but families going through tough times might face different obstacles. By teaming up with these families
Between 2012 and 2018, researchers worked on a project called REVISRembrandt, which focused on Rembrandt's late painting technique (1651-1669). One interesting fact about his late paintings is his extensive use of smalt, a blue cobalt glass pigment that he often mixed with other colors. Over time, m
Imagine if we could catch colon cancer early by simply analyzing breath or stool samples. Scientists are working on exactly that! They're exploring the use of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to detect colorectal cancer (CRC) and its precursors, known as advanced adenomas. Unlike the current faecal
Did you know that the way we estimate how well vaccines work can be improved? Currently, scientists use a method that relies on the total number of cases to figure out vaccine efficacy. But a new approach, called the full Bayesian method, is making waves. This method is like a smarter way to estimat
Ever wondered how hackers, also known as cryptojackers, manage to keep their shady dealings under the radar? They've devised a sneaky strategy called Delay-CJ. This method is cunning because it delays its actions, making it super hard to detect until it's already done its damage. But don't fret, the
Imagine a tiny detective in your water, hunting down specific metal ions. This detective is a sensor called PIN, which was created and tested by scientists. When Zn²⁺ (zinc) or Cd²⁺ (cadmium) ions show up, PIN changes color from blue to yellow, like a little warning light. It's so good at its job th
Machine learning (ML) is quickly becoming a big deal in lots of areas, from research to practical things like predicting how well livestock will breed. But not many people have looked into using ML to improve chicken breeding, especially for yellow-feathered broilers. This study tried out seven diff
Imagine this: you're at the airport, eager to board your flight and squeeze into that coveted overhead bin space. But whoa, American Airlines has a new trick up their sleeve! They've just rolled out tech that won't let you scan your boarding pass until your group is called. It's all about keeping th
You've probably heard about robots playing basketball. But did you know that these robots have trouble recognizing the ball and measuring distances? To fix this, scientists used a combination of robot operating systems and smart algorithms called IBN-YOLOv5s. They added a special module to the algor
