A research team led by Prof. Boseok Kang at Sungkyunkwan University has uncovered the origin of polarity inversion, a long-standing phenomenon in polymer semiconductors that occurs only in certain materials. The team, in collaboration with Prof. Yun-Hi Kim (Gyeongsang National University) and Prof. Han-Sol Lee (Gachon University), has published their results in the journal Advanced Functional Materials.
Digital Planet, the research center at the forefront of researching the AI transformation at The Fletcher School at Tufts University, today released the American AI Jobs Risk Index. It is a first-of-its-kind data-driven framework that maps the potential of AI-driven job vulnerability across every major occupation, industry, metropolitan area, and state in the United States. Drawing on 15 years of labor market data and the most current AI adoption research, the Index goes beyond prior studies by measuring... Читать дальше...
A new study from the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT), in collaboration with Uppsala University (Sweden) and AstraZeneca, shows how computational chemistry and supercomputers can help scientists better understand the fundamental mechanisms of life, specifically those of human cells. This research was conducted by the Molecular Modeling and Drug Discovery Unit, led by Marco De Vivo at IIT in Genoa, and was published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Households with high incomes are the main beneficiaries of subsidy programs supporting the clean energy transition. A team of researchers from the University of Freiburg, Stanford University, Indiana University and the University of Pennsylvania has analyzed why this is the case and how energy policy can be made more equitable. The results have now been published in the journal Nature Reviews Clean Technology.
The bond between humans and dogs is one of nature's most enduring partnerships, but exactly when it began has long been a mystery. Now, a new study has turned back the clock. The study, titled "Dogs were widely distributed in Western Eurasia during the Palaeolithic," is published in the journal Nature.
Billed as the first comprehensive report on the state of U.S. lands, water, and wildlife, the Nature Record National Assessment includes the decline of butterfly populations and other species to the remarkable comeback of the bald eagle.
Researchers at NYU Abu Dhabi have discovered new large-scale waves moving deep inside the sun, driven by magnetic fields far below the surface. These waves provide a window into parts of the sun that are otherwise inaccessible, giving scientists a new tool to study how its magnetic field is formed and evolves over time.
New LiDAR analysis suggests Raknehaugen may have been built in response to a devastating landslide, not to honor a high-status individual. The study by Dr. Lars Gustavsen, published in the European Journal of Archaeology, challenges the long-held assumption that Scandinavia's largest prehistoric mound was built as a burial mound for a high-status individual.
Imagine a man wants to buy a new shirt for work that he plans to wear once a week for at least the next five years. When browsing for options, he finds one shirt from a lower-quality brand priced at £20 and one shirt from a high-quality brand for £50. Which one should he buy?
A recent study published in Physical Review Letters reveals that many widely used signatures of criticality in brain data may be statistical artifacts. They propose a more robust framework that, when applied to whole-brain fMRI data, confirms the brain operates near, but not exactly at, a critical point.
