Chemicals can be harmful to the environment, but testing each one is a slow process. Scientists have found a way to speed this up using something called graph neural networks (GNNs). These networks can predict how harmful a chemical might be to tiny microbes called nitrifiers. These microbes are imp
Every two years, a unique event brings together people from all corners of the globe. This event is not a sporting competition or a scientific conference. It's an art competition. The theme? Neuroscience. The Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience hosts this international art competition. It's open
