Imagine a future where computers can learn and make decisions in ways that mimic human thinking, but at a speed and efficiency that are orders of magnitude greater than the current capability of computers.
University of Minnesota Twin Cities researchers have constructed a robot that uses machine learning to fully automate a complicated microinjection process used in genetic research.
Self-assembling molecules that spontaneously organize themselves to form complex structures are common in nature. For example, the tough outer layer of insects, called the cuticle, is rich in proteins that can self-assemble.
A team of researchers led by the University of Massachusetts Amherst has drawn inspiration from a wide variety of natural geometric motifs—including those of 12-sided dice and potato chips—in order to extend a set of well-known design principles to an entirely new class of spongy materials that can self-assemble into precisely controllable structures.
Nate Diaz is the target of a newly filed lawsuit by Logan Paul lookalike Rodney Petersen for his role in a viral street fight in New Orleans in April 2023. Petersen, who also goes by the moniker Not Logan Paul, filed the suit this past week in civil district court in the state of Louisiana, alleging that he suffered “severe bodily injuries including but not limited to his head, neck, and brain, pain and suffering, mental anguish, loss of enjoyment of life, psychological distress, medical...

Vodafone Group used World Earth Day to focus on mobile device recycling, encouraging people to tackle a problem which the GSMA estimates amounts to 5 billion redundant phones.
Scientists led by the University of Massachusetts Amherst have adapted a device called a microwave circulator for use in quantum computers, allowing them for the first time to precisely tune the exact degree of nonreciprocity between a qubit, the fundamental unit of quantum computing, and a microwave-resonant cavity.
Apple's first big event of the year is fast approaching, with refreshed iPads and accessories set to be the headline reveals. While there's been a selection of leaks revealing possible new iPad features, including the switch to an OLED display on the Pro models, we're also expecting the two main iPad accessories to get an update during the May 7 showcase.
