An instrument found on workbenches around the world has been scaled down enough to be used in a smartphone.
Dr. Peter Fedichev, Ph.D. is the CEO of Gero (https://gero.ai/), a biotech company focused on hacking complex diseases, including aging, with AI for novel drug discovery, as well as digital biomarkers.
Gero’s models originate from the physics of complex dynamic systems, combining the potential of deep neural networks with the physical models to study dynamical processes and understand what drives diseases.
Oocytes prevent the production of reactive oxygen species by remodelling the mitochondrial electron transport chain through elimination of complex I, a strategy that enables their long-term viability.
Turtles, unlike humans, do not continue to age once their bodies reach adulthood because they are “negligibly senescent.” It is theoretically possible for them to live indefinitely, although it is unlikely to happen in actuality. They will eventually die of injury, predation, or sickness. It has been documented that tortoises and their cousins, turtles, can live for up to two hundred years without showing any signs of aging. A turtle that is a hundred years old can experience the same feelings of youth as a tortoise that is thirty years old. This enviable trait may be found in both fish and amphibians. The idea of aging terrifies humans, and it is understandable why. Nobody wants to age slowly and painfully into a state of ill health and old age where death appears preferable to life. However, not everyone thinks this way. There are others who desire to live longer, perhaps even indefinitely. And while a life without aging might sound like something that could only be found in the pages of a fantasy story, research in the field of science suggests that this possibility is very much within our reach.

Scientists have shown that they can detect SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, in the air by using a nanotechnology-packed bubble that spills its chemical contents like a broken piñata when encountering the virus.
Such a detector could be positioned on a wall or ceiling, or in an air duct, where there’s constant air movement, to alert occupants immediately when even a trace level of the virus is present.

The ability to analyze the properties of individual cells is vital to broad areas of life science applications, from diagnosing diseases and developing better therapeutics to characterizing pathogenic bacteria and developing cells for bioproduction applications. However, the accurate analysis of individual cells is a challenge, especially when it comes to a cell’s biophysical properties, due to large property variations among cells even in the same cell population as well as the presence of rare cell types within a larger population.
Addressing this need, Dr. Arum Han, Texas Instruments Professor II in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Texas A&M University, together with his graduate students and postdoctoral researchers, have developed a new technology that can accurately analyze cell properties through the use of a single-cell electrorotation microfluidic device, which utilizes an electric field to probe the cell’s properties.
The technology works by using an electric field to first capture a single cell in a microfluidic device, followed by applying a rotating electric field to rotate the trapped single cell and then measuring the speed of rotation. By knowing the input electric field parameters and analyzing the rotation speed, accurately analyzing the dielectric properties of a single cell becomes possible.
Extending the limit of the human lifespan. The first immortal human has already been born.
“The first human to live to 1,000 has already been born” – Dr. Aubrey de Grey. How far are we in understanding aging and death? Do we have to age or is it a matter of a choice? What is the future of immortality? Is it possible to be immortal and if yes — how far are we in implementing medical treatment and technology that can forestall this natural process we have always thought “is just how life is”.
In this video I am reviewing the cutting-edge technologies and the pioneers in the field of extending life expectancy and reaching immortality eventually. Hint: is it closer than you might imagine!

Reporting in Research Ideas and Outcomes, a Kyushu University researcher has developed a new technique for scanning various plants and animals and reconstructing them into highly detailed 3D models. To date, over 1,400 models have been made available online for public use.
Open any textbook or nature magazine and you will find stunning high-resolution pictures of the diverse flora and fauna that encompass our world. From the botanical illustrations in Dioscorides’ De materia medica (50−70 CE) to Robert Hooke’s sketches of the microscopic world in Micrographia (1665), scientists and artists alike have worked meticulously to draw the true majesty of nature.

Research in the field of machine learning and AI, now a key technology in practically every industry and company, is far too voluminous for anyone to read it all. This column, Perceptron, aims to collect some of the most relevant recent discoveries and papers — particularly in, but not limited to, artificial intelligence — and explain why they matter.
Over the past few weeks, researchers at MIT have detailed their work on a system to track the progression of Parkinson’s patients by continuously monitoring their gait speed. Elsewhere, Whale Safe, a project spearheaded by the Benioff Ocean Science Laboratory and partners, launched buoys equipped with AI-powered sensors in an experiment to prevent ships from striking whales. Other aspects of ecology and academics also saw advances powered by machine learning.

Researchers at the University of Texas at Austin have developed a decoder that uses information from fMRI scans to reconstruct human thoughts. Jerry Tang, Amanda LeBel, Shailee Jain and Alexander Huth have published a paper describing their work on the preprint server bioRxiv.
Prior efforts to create technology that can monitor brain waves and decode them to reconstruct a person’s thoughts have all consisted of probes placed in the brains of willing patients. And while such technology has proven useful for research efforts, it is not practical for use in other applications such as helping people who have lost the ability to speak. In this new effort, the researchers have expanded on work from prior studies by applying findings about reading and interpreting brain waves to data obtained from fMRI scans.
Recognizing that attempting to reconstruct brainwaves into individual words using fMRI was impractical, the researchers designed a decoding device that sought to gain an overall understanding of what was going on in the mind rather than a word-for-word decoding. The decoder they built was a computer algorithm that accepted fMRI data and returned paragraphs describing general thoughts. To train their algorithm, the researchers asked two men and one woman to lie in an fMRI machine while they listened to podcasts and recordings of people telling stories.
