Novel Method Forecasts if COVID-19 Clinical Tests Will Fail or be Successful

Studies to develop drugs, vaccines, devices, and repurposed drugs are urgently needed to win the battle against COVID-19. Randomized clinical trials are used to supply evidence of safety and efficacy and better understand this new and evolving virus. Since July 15, over 6,180 COVID-19 clinical trials have been registered through ClinicalTrials.gov, the United States...

Using Artificial Intelligence to Predict Oxygen Demand for Patients with COVID

Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge and 20 other hospitals worldwide and healthcare technology leader NVIDIA have utilized artificial intelligence (AI) to anticipate Covid patients' oxygen needs on a global scale.The pandemic triggered the research study and set out to develop an AI tool to forecast how much additional oxygen a Covid-19 patient may require in...

Mathematical Model Anticipates Ideal Method to Build Muscle Mass

Scientists have established a mathematical model to anticipate the maximum exercise program for building muscular tissue.The scientists from the University of Cambridge utilized methods of theoretical biophysics to create the model, which can inform just how much a certain amount of physical effort will lead a muscle to grow and how much time it...

Cosmic Rays – From Supernova Remnants and Pulsars – May Be the Secret to Understanding Galactic Dynamics

via GIPHYFast cosmic rays originating from supernova residues and pulsars most likely influence galactic dynamics and star development far more than previously recognized.Cosmic rays are charged subnuclear particles that move close to the speed of light, regularly raining down on the Earth. These particles are relativistic, as defined by Albert Einstein's special relativity, and...

Spacecraft in Sun’s Backyard Unravels the Origins of Interplanetary Dust

https://vimeo.com/601024128 Researchers working with data from NASA's Parker Solar Probe set up the most complete photo yet of the internal structure and behavior of the big cloud of space dust, referred to as the zodiacal cloud, that swirls throughout the solar system. They identified three dust populations in the cloud. A lot of the grains...

Allowing Cells to Talk to Computers

University of Washington and Microsoft researchers have introduced a new class of reporter proteins that can be directly read by a commercially available nanopore sensing device. Raw nanopore signals stream from the MinION device, which contains an array of hundreds of nanopore sensors. Each color represents data from an individual nanopore. The team uses...

The Growth of an Organism Rides on a Pattern of Waves

MIT researchers observe ripples across a newly fertilized egg that are similar to other systems, from ocean and atmospheric circulations to quantum fluids. Credit: MITWhen an egg cell of virtually any kind of sexually reproducing species is fertilized, it triggers a chain of waves that ripple across the egg's surface area. These waves are...

Supernova Requiem: Rerun of Enormous Blast From Exploding Star Expected To Appear in 2037

Titan Galaxy Cluster Magnifies the Light from a Distant Supernova and Splits It into Multiple ImagesIndividuals over the centuries have not been reluctant to make forecasts concerning the future. However, a few of them should have maintained their projections to themselves. The head of state of the Michigan Savings Bank, as an example, forecasted...
