Compared to open hemihepatectomy, the laparoscopic approach resulted in faster recovery time and higher quality of life, researchers found. Treatment with laparoscopic hemihepatectomy (resection, or surgical…
Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University’s Robotics Institute (RI) have developed a robotic system that interactively co-paints with people. Collaborative FRIDA (CoFRIDA) can work with users of any artistic ability, inviting collaboration to create art in the real world.
The JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) program led to the discovery of this new galaxy dubbed JADES-GS-z14-0.
“The instruments on Webb were designed to find and understand the earliest galaxies, and in the first year of observations as part of the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES), we found many hundreds of candidate galaxies from the first 650 million years after the big bang,” said Stefano Carniani from Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa, Italy.
