MIT CSAIL researchers developed “linear oscillatory state-space models” to leverage harmonic oscillators. Capturing the stability and efficiency of biological neural systems and translating these principles into a machine learning framework, the LinOSS approach can help predict complex systems.
Scientists have uncovered a bizarre new bacterium that behaves like a living wire, opening the door to pollution-fighting tech and next-gen bioelectronics.
In the 2024 SWC Lecture, Blaise Agüera y Arcas, VP and Fellow at Google Research and Google’s CTO of Technology & Society, challenged the notion that the brain is not a computer. He explained how both life and intelligence are inherently computational and may even be selected for in the same way.
From single words to sentence production: shared cortical representations but distinct temporal dynamics.

About the Maryland Language Science Center. At the Maryland Language Science Center (MLSC), we are committed to advancing the interdisciplinary science of language to tackle complex, large-scale problems in both fundamental science and society. Our work brings together linguists, psychologists, neuroscientists, computer scientists, and more to explore the many facets of language and its role in shaping human cognition and communication.
In this week’s episode we interview author, AI theorist and researcher David Shapiro is part philosopher, part theorist with a fair bit of practical wisdom thrown in. With a hit YouTube channel Shapiro travels the globe as a speaker and advisor musing on the longer-term impacts of AI, technology and human adaptability. In this deep conversation with host Brett King, we delve into the ways in which advanced AI might completely transform our way of life, including economics, politics and what it means to be human itself. This is not one you’ll want to miss.

Adriano V. Autino gave a Technical Presentation at U.N. COPUOS Legal Subcommittee, the 6 May 2025, on behalf of Dennis O’Brien, Chair of the Space Renaissance Academy Space Law Comittee: “Clarifying ambiguities of the Outer Space Treaty”
The new finding is reported in a paper published April 14 on the arXiv pre-print server.
In general, dwarf galaxies are the most numerous in the universe when compared to other galaxies but are difficult to detect due to their low luminosity, low mass and small size.
