Integrating human pluripotent stem cell models with population genetics and cellular genomics can help elucidate functional mechanisms underlying complex disease risk loci and uncover relationships between common genetic variation and pharmacotherapeutic phenotypes.
Since the first microbial genome was sequenced in 1995, scientists have reconstructed the genomic makeup of hundreds of thousands of microorganisms and have even devised methods to take a census of bacterial communities on the skin, in the gut, or in soil, water and elsewhere based on bulk samples, leading to the emergence of a relatively new field of study known as metagenomics.
Granite Code Models: A Family of Open Foundation Models for Code Intelligence — ibm-granite/granite-code-models.
LimX Dynamics has revealed that the W1 quadruped robot can walk on two feet across a smooth floor. In the future, it might also climb stairs bipedally as with other robots in the company.
Engineers at MIT have developed a groundbreaking method for detecting bioluminescent light within the brain.
By modifying the brain’s blood vessels to express a specific protein, they induced dilation in response to light exposure.
The approach enabled researchers to visualize the dilation using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), facilitating precise localization of light sources within the brain.
Researchers have developed a method to turn chicken fat into carbon electrodes for supercapacitors in energy storage.
A new study has attempted to uncover the mysteries of the brain’s signal conversion process and the findings are interesting.
A materials breakthrough could lead to radically smaller phones that are more powerful and energy-efficient.
A novel algorithm enables robots to flexibly squish, bend, or stretch for tasks such as obstacle avoidance or item retrieval.
Researchers in Japan have discovered that manganese could help reduce reliance on iridium as a catalyst for hydrogen production.
