How Mars Lost its Oceans

Planet Mars illustration. Credit: NASA It has long been recognized that Mars once had oceans due, in part, to a protective magnetic field similar to Earth's. Nevertheless, the electromagnetic field disappeared, and a new research study may lastly be able to explain why. Scientists recreated conditions anticipated in the core of Mars billions of years...

Global Elimination of Animal Farming Could Save the Planet

The elimination of all animal agriculture in the following 15 years would severely diminish greenhouse gas emissions and remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Research into the climatological impacts of raising animals for food implicates that eliminating all animal agriculture has the potentially to considerably change the direction of global warming. The project is a cooperation...

Researchers Discover New Insights About Lymphangioleiomyomatosis

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 research As scientists studied LAM cells in the lab, they found a "mixed phenotype," or distinctions in physical expression in...

A New Way to Store Sustainable Energy: ‘Information Batteries’

What if surplus renewable energy could be stored as computation instead? that’s the thinking behind “information batteries.” Photo/ISTOCK. A future powered by sustainable energy sources can save the globe from drastic climate change and reduce energy expenses. But the renewable resource has an intermittency issue-- the sun offers no power during the night, while winds...

The Negative Aspect of Machine Learning in Healthcare

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...

Pythagoras’ Revenge: Humans Didn’t Invent Mathematics

Many individuals believe that mathematics is a human invention. In this way of thinking, mathematics is like a language: it may define actual things on the planet. However, it does not "exist" outside the minds of the people who utilize it. However, the Pythagorean school of thought in ancient Greece held a different sight. Its...

Australian Politicians Need to Stop Meddling with Basic Research

In nations like Denmark and Germany, gifts are given on Christmas Eve rather than Christmas morning. Furthermore, on Christmas Eve 2021, 587 groups of researchers at universities around Australia got a festive present from the Australian Research Council (ARC), in the form of information that their 2022 Discovery Projects were to be financed. More brutally,...

Study Identifies Several Ways to Improve Exercise

Most people make fitness resolutions for the new year. Unfortunately, these resolutions are usually only temporary. Numerous studies have discovered the magic bullet for getting people to achieve long-term gains in their fitness regimen. The majority of interventions were unsuccessful. Researchers from a variety of universities, including five from Carnegie Mellon University, approached the problem...

Science Made Simple: What Is Exascale Computing?

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...

Revolutionary Carbon-Based Magnetic Material Finally Synthesized After 70 Years

Researchers from Osaka University and Osaka City University synthesize and crystallize a molecule that is usually too unstable to thoroughly study in the laboratory. The molecule is also a model of a revolutionary class of magnets. Since the very first documented production in 2004, researchers have been hard at work utilizing graphene and identical...
