Neuralink’s first patient says he’s given his brain-chip implant a name seven months after it was surgically implanted.

Noland Arbaugh, who is quadriplegic and became the first person to get the computer-controlling implant developed by Elon Musk’s brain-interface company, said Wednesday that he had named the device “Eve” and was working with it to improve himself in different ways.

The JUICE spacecraft recently swung past the Moon and Earth in a rare maneuver on its journey to Jupiter.

Recent research has found that resilient individuals have healthier gut microbiomes and more active brain regions for emotion regulation, highlighting a strong gut-brain connection that supports better stress management and overall mental well-being.

Researchers from Karolinska Institutet have shown that there is a connection between medication against ADHD and a reduced risk of dying prematurely.

Forskare från Karolinska Institutet har visat att det finns ett samband mellan medicinering mot adhd och minskad risk för att dö i förtid. Risken för dödsfall av onaturliga orsaker, som olyckor och överdoseringar, kan minska med en fjärdedel, enligt den nya studien publicerad i JAMA.

It provides new options for patients with poor access to this essential testing.

Many SaaS companies want to leverage AI in their products. However, since AI is so new, pricing remains volatile. Costs can drop drastically for an AI model when the next iteration is out, and many companies lower their pricing in response to a competitor launch to gain or retain market share.

In addition to the fluctuating and unpredictable model prices, AI pricing is mostly based on usage. Customer usage is usually difficult to predict, which affects the costs your product will incur if it relies on AI models.

Researchers have mapped 50,000 of DNA’s mysterious “knots” in the human genome. The innovative study of DNA’s hidden structures may open up new approaches for treatment and diagnosis of diseases, including cancer.

An international group of researchers has developed a novel approach that enhances the efficiency of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), a key process in renewable energy technologies. By introducing rare earth single atoms into manganese oxide (MnO2), the group successfully modulated oxygen electronic states, leading to unprecedented improvements in OER performance.
