In a new paper assessing whether machines will one day become truly artificially intelligent, researchers conclude that that true, human-level intelligence remains a long way off, but their new paper explores how computers could begin to evolve learning in the same way as natural organisms did - with implications for many fields, including artificial intelligence.

A new method has been developed to analyse the physical characteristics of potato chips in a bid to develop a tastier low-fat snack.

UNIGE researchers have demonstrated how the harsh sounds used in alarm systems hold the brain’s attention by stimulating its aversion networks.

A newly published paper provides an overview of commonly used physiochemical properties and how they are assessed and measured throughout the drug discovery process.

Wilderness areas, long known for intrinsic conservation value, are far more valuable for biodiversity than previously believed, and if conserved, will cut the world’s extinction risk in half.

At the Association for Glycogen Storage Disease's 41st Annual Conference, Dr. David Weinstein of UConn School of Medicine and Connecticut Children's presented his groundbreaking, one-year clinical trial results for the novel gene therapy treatment for glycogen storage disease (GSD).

Novel data and analytic platform built to accelerate the development of drugs by addressing the need to better characterize rare diseases.

Researchers used a multi-fractal analysis technique to describe the patterns produced by bacterial sliding movement. The bacteria don't move independently but push each other within the colony by dividing and competing for the same space.

Researchers have combined nano-optics and organic chemistry to measure complex light landscapes in the tight focus of a laser beam.
