Danish algorithm predicts the survival rate of ICU patients
Determining the best treatment for each critically ill patient is a major challenge, and existing methods can be greatly improved with the use of AI and machine learning.
Forget the foam: the “liquid” helmet mimics the brain to protect the head.
One company has created helmets with small "air chambers" placed inside the helmet and filled with a thick liquid like oil that mimics the dynamics of cerebrospinal fluids.
In 2020 NASA will launch the first living organisms in space for 50 years now.
BioSentinel is one of 13 projects planned as part of the Artemis 1 mission scheduled for mid-2020. 47 years after the last launch of living organisms (Apollo 17, which reached the Moon in December 1972).
The new color night vision goggles are an extraordinary sight
Two new technologies will revolutionize the way we see in the dark by introducing colors. And one day we might drive a car at night without headlights anymore.
Putin: Russia has science fiction laser weapons
These are weapons that will determine Russia's military potential for decades to come
Europe, ECFR survey reveals: the majority of voters fear the dissolution of the EU within 20 years.
Trust and support in the European Union are still high, but pessimism is growing about the stability of the entire EU project over the next 10-20 years.
City life ruins mental health in ways that we are only now beginning to understand
Cities are dynamic and stimulating places, but their residents have a much higher rate of mental illness than the rest of the population.
Neuralink, the startup of Elon Musk who wants to connect the brain to the computer increases the funds
Neuralink wants to connect the human brain with a computer to increase data exchange between the two systems and provide a “bionic” alternative to artificial intelligence.
10 reasons why graphene will revolutionize the planet
Here are 10 applications with which graphene will change the world.
A new AI model improves breast cancer diagnostics
“Trained” on thousands of mammograms it can predict the risk of having breast cancer in the next 5 years, and it works better than any other model.
Surgery in times of climate threat: it's time for 'green' anesthesia
“I try to take precautions. I don't turn on too many lights, take shorter showers, or anything. I do what I can. But in my profession it is a very simple gesture that can have a gigantic impact."
10 jobs already on the verge of extinction by 2026
Without straying too far in the forecasts, aided by data from ISTAT and the American Labor Statistics Office, here are the professional figures who will experience the greatest contraction over the next 5 years.
Against CO2 emissions we plant trees a hundred times faster using drones.
BioCarbon Engineering proposes to combat CO2 emissions and climate change by accelerating the planting and growth of trees up to 100 times, thanks to the use of special "farming" drones.
A totem produces face cream 'tailor-made' for the user
A German startup, Skinmade, has produced a 'fleet' of small totems capable of mixing and making face creams on demand based on the specific characteristics of each user.
The colorectal cancer vaccine test was a success
The first phase of human testing of the colorectal cancer vaccine was a success and holds great promise. A new study published in major scientific journals proves that the vaccine is safe and stimulates the activation of the immune system: a real "green light" for new large-scale tests. A relentless killer – Colorectal cancer is the second highest mortality rate in the world: not only is it difficult to diagnose, but it is also… Read more
China builds special highways for autonomous vehicles
China is absolutely racing to change its transport in the direction of unmanned vehicles: for this reason it is building special highways for this type of car. The new route, approximately 100 kilometers long, includes two completely dedicated lanes: the objective is to give autonomous vehicles a space adjacent to those driven by humans but with equal conditions, to better test their yield and performance. The new highway will rise between the urban areas of Beijing… Read more
Singularity: Kurzweil expects intelligent computers as humans within 12 years.
According to futurologist and Google chief engineer Ray Kurzweil, the singularity is approaching by leaps and bounds. “By 2029, computers will have the same level of intelligence as humans.” This is the statement made in a recent interview at the SXSW Conference. What is the singularity? (It is always good to remember this) It is a process-event that will bring the intelligence of computers to a higher level than that of human beings. And according to leading experts on the subject it seems to be getting closer over time. Even the theoretical physicist Stephen… Read more
Infrared Wifi: 40 giga per second.
Infrared Wifi: 100 times faster than the current one. This is the goal achieved by Joanne Oh, a researcher at the University of Eindhoven. By developing a low-intensity infrared “network” to transmit data within an environment, she obtained a formidable system: 40 Gigabits per second of speed and no overhead (each device uses its own infrared “ray”). The system is simple and in principle very economical to set up. The data is distributed by some small antennas… Read more
The next hard drive? It will be DNA.
The preservation of information is increasingly crucial: this is why companies like Microsoft are studying the "hard disks" of the future. Among the most promising research is that which focuses on a truly exceptional "physical memory": DNA. Our DNA is a medium that stores data about us: on an IT level its "performance" is extraordinary. Like Hard Disk, DNA does not degrade over time. It is so versatile that it contains in just 4 grams all the information produced in an entire … Read more
Probably the first person capable of living 1000 years has already been born.
“The biggest health problem in the world is age-related diseases.” Not a revolutionary statement from Dr. Brad Perking, the medical director of Human Longevity. Yet of his recent speech in Abu Dhabi, these were the last words stuck in the present. In his projections of the near future, the doctor's analysis was much more visionary, as is typical of him. Human Longevity inc. is the company founded by Craig Venter with an initial investment of over… Read more
