Virtual reality systems could be used to detect the early balance-related symptoms of multiple sclerosis, according to a new study.

From a simple blood draw, microbial DNA may reveal who has cancer and which type, even at early stages.

Researchers from the University of Bristol are pioneering the use of virtual reality or "VR" as a tool to design the next generation of therapeutics.

A new study has demonstrated how commercially available head mounted displays (HMD) could be used to simulate the day-to-day challenges faced by people with glaucoma.

Researchers at ETH Zurich and Bern University Hospital have developed a method for predicting circulatory failure in patients in intensive care units – enabling clinicians to intervene at an early stage. Their approach uses machine learning methods to evaluate an extensive body of patient data.

Scientists at Osaka University built a new computing device from field-programmable gate arrays (FPGA) that can be customized by the user for maximum efficiency in artificial intelligence applications.

Using robots that expressed vulnerability, researchers have shown that robots can affect human-to-human interactions, such as communicating effectively as a team.

Why do some people feel like they need three cups of coffee just to get through the day when others are happy with only one? Why do some people abstain entirely? New research suggests that our intake of coffee - the most popular beverage in America, above bottled water, sodas, tea, and beer - is affected by a positive feedback loop between genetics and the environment.

An ultra-fast image sensor with a built-in neural network has been developed at TU Wien (Vienna). It can be trained to recognize certain objects. It has now been presented in "Nature".

When we open our eyes, we immediately see our surroundings in great detail. How the brain is able to form these richly detailed representations of the world so quickly is one of the biggest unsolved puzzles in the study of vision. Now, a computer model that captures the human visual system's ability to quickly generate a detailed scene description from an image has been developed.
