Discover how AI is driving the pharmaceutical revolution by designing brand new proteins to fight the toughest diseases. Scientists, such as those at UCSF, are using AI and vast databases to create the cures of the future for cancer, diabetes and Alzheimer's disease, offering new hope to patients.
The latest scientific research brings a shocking reversal in the understanding of Alzheimer's disease. Contrary to popular belief, increased social activity, rather than social isolation, could be one of the earliest subtle signs of this disease. Discover why a richer social life may indicate the first changes in the brain.
A new study by mit scientists sheds light on the survival of life during the global icing known as “Snowball Land.” An exploration of modern lakes of melted ice in Antarctica reveals how similar oases on the surface of the ice could have served as key sanctuaries for early eukaryotes, our ancient ancestors.
Mit scientists have found that fluid between cells, not just their internal structure, determines whether a tissue is flexible or rigid. This fundamental discovery changes the understanding of tissue mechanics and opens new avenues for research and treatment of aging, cancer and other diseases.
Mit engineers have devised an innovative device that produces clean drinking water from atmospheric moisture and has also been tested in the arid conditions of Death Valley. The technology uses hydrogel and solar energy, without the need for electricity.
Researchers at mit have developed a revolutionary method for simulating elastic and soft objects that solves the problems of instability in 3D animation. With the discovery of a hidden mathematical structure, their approach ensures physically accurate and reliable animations, opening up new possibilities for video games and industrial design.
