Researchers have developed a new artificial intelligence (AI)-based approach to increase the accuracy of gene editing tools, significantly reducing unwanted modifications to DNA. The technology, described in a study published in the journal Nature uses AI to redesign genetic editors and minimize off-target changes, one of the main challenges in the field. The research was […]

Light computers Optical computing ( photonic processors or light computers ) is already becoming a reality, but its development is not as fast as light. And this is for a very simple reason: The inherent property of light to travel at a fixed speed, which makes it very difficult – and more complex than one would like – to implement memory […]

A Cincinnati man says that if the fall detection feature of Apple Watch hadn’t called 911, he would have died from undiagnosed blood clotting.

Concept and photothermal structures driven by UV light. (Image: Advanced Science) Lift buttons Touch screens have left buttons somewhat forgotten, but mechanical actuation switches are still necessary in countless applications. And, not to say that mechanical buttons and keys have been relegated to the technology of past centuries, they have just received a “photonic boost” […]

  A well-known rapper and actor’s team texted Mitch Chaiet a dance video. “If you can get your robot to do this dance, we’ll post it,” they said. He was in Las Vegas for Dell Technologies World, but his Dell Pro Precision hardware was running back home in Austin. He texted the video to his […]

Today, we’re excited to share a long-term commitment to the Department of Energy’s (DOE) Genesis Mission, backed by a $60 million investment designed to accelerate AI for science and the breakthroughs it can deliver for the country. This deepened commitment includes Microsoft’s new Scientific Partnership Advancing Research & Knowledge coordination hub and program office, otherwise […]
