Under scrutiny, UW-Madison virus lab opens its doors

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, education

Scientists studying viruses at the University of Wisconsin-Madison recently opened their lab door for a tour, looking to shine a light on their work after being targeted by a Republican bill.

The legislation would have prohibited some of the research that has been done in the past in Madison…


The bill would have ended all so-called “gain-of-function” research at higher education institutions in the state, and cut funding from any university that continued such experiments.

How a classical computer beat a quantum computer at its own game

Posted by in categories: computing, mathematics, quantum physics

Researchers explore an intriguing phenomenon in quantum systems, drawing inspiration from a recent quantum computing experiment.


Earlier this year, researchers at the Flatiron Institute’s Center for Computational Quantum Physics (CCQ) announced that they had successfully used a classical computer and sophisticated mathematical models to thoroughly outperform a quantum computer on a task that some thought only quantum computers could solve.

15 Billion Miles Away, NASA’s Voyager 1 Breaks Its Silence

Posted by in category: space

NASA reconnected with Voyager 1 after a fault protection system prompted the spacecraft to turn off a transmitter.

Engineers at JPL are investigating the incident, facing the challenge of managing commands and data over a 15 billion-mile distance. The team aims to stabilize communications and address the technical difficulties of the aging spacecraft in interstellar space.

‘World-1st’ ultra-thin film absorbs over 99% of electromagnetic waves

Posted by in categories: internet, robotics/AI

Scientists have developed a new material: an ultra-thin film that can absorb over 99% of electromagnetic waves.

The Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS) states it to be the “world’s first ultra-thin film composite material capable of absorbing over 99% of electromagnetic waves.”

Idaho State Researcher Develops Algorithm to Model Brain Activity

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, information science, robotics/AI

Thanks to an algorithm created by an Idaho State University professor, the way engineers, doctors, and physicists tackle the hard questions in their respective fields could all change.

Emanuele Zappala, an assistant professor of mathematics at ISU, and his colleagues at Yale have developed the Attentional Neural Integral Equations algorithm, or ANIE for short. Their work was recently published in Nature Machine Intelligence and describes how ANIE can model large, complex systems using data alone.

“Natural phenomena–everything from plasma physics to how viruses spread–are all governed by equations which we do not fully understand,” explains Zappala. “One of the main complexities lies in long-distance relations between different data points in the systems over space and time. What ANIE does is it allows us to learn these complex systems using just those known data points.”
