Researchers have identified that soil pH and total amount of soil cadmium are indicators of how much cadmium ends up in cacao beans.

A new analysis of a century-and-a-half of data shows excessively warm ocean temperatures are the new normal.

A future powered by sustainable energy sources could save the world from devastating climate change. But renewable energy has an intermittency problem. What if surplus renewable energy could be stored as computation instead? That’s the thinking behind “information batteries,” proposed in a new paper.

Researchers have fabricated a material for computer components that enable the commercial viability of computers that mimic the human brain.

MIT researchers created a machine-learning model that can directly predict the complex that will form when two proteins bind together. Their technique is between 80 and 500 times faster than state-of-the-art software methods, and often predicts protein structures that are closer to actual structures that have been observed experimentally.

A research team has re-analyzed all public RNA sequencing data to uncover almost ten times more RNA viruses than were previously known, including several new species of coronaviruses.

Researchers have developed and validated an artificial-intelligence-based method to evaluate patients with an eye disease that can lead to childhood vision loss.

Can machine learning be used to uncover the secrets of the early universe? Yes - but only with sophisticated new methods.

Research has provided evidence that BRCA1 and BRCA2 are linked to several other cancers.

Developing robust predictions of seasonal air pollution is key for controlling pollution, but data from before 2013 contain high levels of uncertainty.
