A single plant costs U.S. ranchers $35 million a year. Now, a team of researchers is using artificial intelligence to keep it in check.This post was originally published on this site

Large surface waves produced by powerboats are a mainstay for recreational watersports. A new study from the University of Minnesota shows that beneath the surface, factors such as propeller thrust and other types of waves […]

Researchers have demonstrated a technique that geometrically models organic objects and creates photorealistic, three-dimensional (3D) images of those objects. These mathematically precise images can be used to engineer robotic systems capable of identifying and sorting […]

Carbon fibers are essential in aviation, wind energy, and lightweight construction. However, since they are based on petroleum, their production has been very harmful to the environment. A research consortium led by the Technical University […]

There may be a new artificial intelligence-driven tool to turbocharge scientific discovery: virtual labs.This post was originally published on this site

Researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) agent powered by a large language model (LLM) that creates more accurate and informative descriptions of biological processes and their functions […]

The binding of proteins to DNA is crucial for producing other proteins, ensuring that all the necessary processes in cells are performed, and for switching genes on or off. Proteins that bind to DNA are […]

A KAIST research team led by Professor Won Do Heo (Department of Biological Sciences) has developed an optogenetic platform, RELISR (REversible LIght-induced Store and Release), that enables precise spatiotemporal control over the storage and release […]

EPFL researchers are developing robotic beehive frames that help locate honey stores inside of beehives over time, without relying on cameras. The aim is to develop new observation tools to study honeybee behavior that better […]

Researchers at the University of Birmingham have developed a powerful new method to detect harmful blue-green algae in freshwater lakes. Their method, which involves advanced mass spectrometry technology, can identify toxin-producing blue-green algae before they […]
