Efficient technique improves machine-learning models' reliability

Powerful machine-learning models are being used to help people tackle tough problems such as identifying disease in medical images or detecting road obstacles for autonomous vehicles. But machine-learning models can make mistakes, so in high-stakes settings it's critical that humans know when to trust a model's predictions.

Researchers engineer spinal cord-like tissue with drug-guiding function for spinal cord injury repair

In a recent study published in Science Advances, a research team led by Profs. Dai Jianwu and Zhao Yannan at the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology (IGDB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences demonstrated a strategy for covalent conjugation between biomaterials and cells to construct spinal cord-like tissue with drug-guiding function for spinal cord injury (SCI) repair.

Fish don't dither: A new study investigates danger-evasion tactics

Decisions are difficult. Humans often find themselves deliberating between multiple conflicting alternatives, or frustratingly fixated upon a single option. When faced with a threat, zebrafish larvae don't have that luxury. The direction they take to escape from a predator is a matter of life and death.
