Supermicro's ingenuityThe industry is emphasizing IoT ingenuity. The connected world is coming together, from your preferred retail store to the branch office and concealed in plain sight. With the development in 5G, IoT, edge applications, AI, data analysis, and compute power shaping Industry 4.0, the Smart City, and beyond, the digital age is here.Supermicro...
The investigators taking part in the global MOSAiC expedition with the Polarstern icebreaker survey have discovered fish and squid in deep water in the mid-Arctic Ocean.Suddenly four very large fish were captured at a depth of 350-400 meters. An added shock to the research study group was the fact that three of the fish...
The first fully autonomous biohybrid fish from human stem-cell derived cardiac muscle cells. Credit: Michael Rosnach, Keel Yong Lee, Sung-Jin Park, Kevin Kit ParkerAn autonomously swimming biohybrid fish, designed to emphasize two crucial regulatory functions of the human heart, has shown the relevance of feedback mechanisms in muscle pumps (such as the heart). The...
People like these Baka hunter-gatherers once ranged well beyond their current homeland in Central Africa.

Currently, the bones of four children buried thousands of years earlier...

Physics tells us that they are entirely different classes...
IMELTING ICE ON THE ISLANDS OF SEVERNAYA ZEMLYA (BARENTS AND LAPTEV SEA REGION).CREDIT: GABRIELA SCHAEPMAN-STRUB, ARCTIC CENTURY EXPEDITION, 2021The temps in the Arctic are rising as a result of climate change. According to an international study conducted by UZH experts, Arctic warming causes temperature anomalies and cold damage millions of km distant in East...
Scientists have found new insights about lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), a rare lung disease, which affects approximately 1 in 200,00 Americans and typically includes the growth of abnormal cells in different tissues and organs, including the lungs.Lymphangioleiomyomatosis researchAs scientists studied LAM cells in the lab, they found a "mixed phenotype," or distinctions in physical expression in...
Assistant Professor Marzyeh Ghassemi analyzes how disguised biases in medical data can jeopardize artificial intelligence approaches.While completing her dissertation in computer science at MIT, Marzyeh Ghassemi wrote numerous papers on how machine learning strategies from artificial intelligence could be applied to medical data to anticipate patient outcomes. "It was not till the end of...
Exascale computing is the following milestone in the advancement of supercomputers. Capable of processing information much faster than today's most powerful supercomputers, exascale computers will certainly give researchers a new tool for addressing a few of the most significant obstacles facing our world, from climate change to understanding cancer to designing brand-new sort of...
