Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming healthcare, but we must tackle challenges to ensure it benefits everyone. One way to do this is by using Embedded Ethics. This approach combines ethics and social sciences in AI development. It helps address issues like bias, lack of transparency, and mis
Methylation is like a secret code that cells use to control important processes. The most common type is N6-methyladenosine (m6A), found in RNA. Methyltransferases add m6A, and demethylases remove it. The FTO (fat mass and obesity-associated protein) is a demethylase that can malfunction and cause d
Have you ever heard of Tl2PrBr5? It's a fascinating compound formed by mixing thallium bromide (TlBr) and praseodymium bromide (PrBr3). Back in the 1970s, scientists created a phase diagram for PrBr3-TlBr, but it had some errors. Recently, scientists used a special method called differential scannin
Have you ever considered how the film industry is like a massive web of relationships? This piece takes a closer look at studies that use network analysis to understand the film world better. Researchers often turn to the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) for data to test their theories. But this surv
Have you ever thought about how what you eat affects your brain? Well, science is starting to find some interesting connections. One diet that's been getting a lot of attention is the Mediterranean diet, or Med Diet for short. This diet is big on fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats li
Injuries to the collateral ligaments often happen alongside cruciate ligament tears. Traditionally, surgeons use interference screws to secure the grafts on the femur, tibia, and fibula. But there's a simpler and faster way: tenodesis anchors. These nifty devices provide both compression and stabili
Ever wondered what plants might be using to protect themselves? Scientists have been looking into a plant called Salsola imbricata. They made a special extract from it using methanol and found some interesting stuff. This extract contains things like saponin, tannins, and alkaloids, which are known
Insects and other tiny critters are vital parts of our planet's ecosystems. Among them, certain fungi play a big role in keeping populations in check. These fungi, called entomopathogenic fungi, specifically attack insects and arthropods. One group, the Hypocreales, has been overlooked by scientists
Did you know that even plants and animals can sometimes use a compound called methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), also known as dimethyl sulfone? This naturally occurring substance is part of our world, but when it comes to horseracing, it's a bit controversial. Both MSM and its relative dimethyl sulfoxide
Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy ( 1 H MRS) is gaining attention for its role in determining total creatine (tCr) concentrations in the brain. However, the trustworthiness of repeated 1 H MRS measurements has been questioned. A study delved into how well 1 H MRS can reliably and repeat
