UK scientists are developing ‘universal Covid jab’ to beat variants
British scientists are developing ‘universal Covid jab’ that would effectively beat all variants of the virus in as little as a YEAR.
Nottingham University researchers are working with Oxford-based cancer vaccine firm Scancell (pictured, its chief medical officer) to create the universal vaccine.
New skin patch brings us closer to wearable, all-in-one health monitor
Engineers at the University of California San Diego have developed a soft, stretchy skin patch that can be worn on the neck to continuously track blood pressure and heart rate while measuring the wearer’s levels of glucose as well as lactate, alcohol or caffeine. It is the first wearable device that monitors cardiovascular signals and multiple biochemical levels in the human body at the same time.
A new framework for robotics applications that merges reservoir computing with origami
Reservoir computing is a highly promising computational framework based on artificial recurrent neural networks (RNNs). Over the past few years, this framework was successfully applied to a variety of tasks, ranging from time-series predictions (i.e., stock market or weather forecasting), to robotic motion planning and speech recognition.
