Researchers have found that a person's risk of developing psychotic-like experiences may be influenced by both childhood attention problems and their genetic makeup.

With the U.S. election just days away, several mysterious whales have popped up on the blockchain prediction market.

Burstone Group, formerly Investec Property Fund, announced on Monday that shareholders voted 100% in favour of its strategic partnership with Blackstone, the world's largest alternative investment manager, in Europe.

India's growing housing boom is increasing demand for river sand, leading to environmental damage and violence by the sand mafia. To mitigate this, the government is commissioning plants to produce manufactured sand (M-sand), reducing the reliance on river sand and supporting environmental sustainability.

What happens in the coming days will be pivotal in deciding the winner of next week’s election.

Sen. J.D. Vance said Monday he'd found an "obvious" flaw with a red state lawmaker's none-too-subtle suggestion that his running mate is a modern-day Nazi.

At 17:00 today, Bulgaria's Central Election Commission (CEC) released the final results with 100% of protocols processed across the Regional Electoral Commissions (RECs). GERB leads with 642,931 votes, representing 26.388% support, followed by the "We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria" (WCC-DB) coalition, which received 346,063 votes or 14....

Researchers have developed a new binarized neural network (BNN) scheme using ternary gradients to address the computational challenges of IoT edge devices. They introduced a magnetic RAM-based computing-in-memory architecture, significantly reducing circuit size and power consumption. Their design achieved near-identical accuracy and faster training times compared to traditional BNNs, making it a promising solution for efficient AI implementation in resource-limited devices, such as those used in IoT systems.

It amounts to spending an average of $14,070 per year, per infant.

Charity Fillers has now reached the 10,000th play of a piece of audio on-air in less than six months of operation.

Cultured meat is grown from animal muscle cells, and animal serum is required to promote the growth of these cells. However, the use of serum poses significant challenges because of its high cost and associated ethical concerns. Now, researchers have developed a system where growth factor-secreting liver cells and photosynthetic microorganisms can be grown together to create a low cost, environmentally friendly medium to grow muscle cells without the use of animal serum.

In earthquake-prone areas like Japan, there is a need for better prediction of soil stability to mitigate liquefaction risks. Towards this end, researchers have used machine learning models, including artificial neural networks and bagging techniques, to create accurate 3D maps of bearing layers using data from 433 locations in Setagaya, Tokyo. This approach can identify stable construction sites, enhance disaster planning, and contribute to safer urban development, making cities more resilient to liquefaction risks.

There is a yawning gap between national policies to enhance biodiversity and the individual and small group behavioral changes that are critical to making a real difference.

India is preparing for COP29 with plans to balance economic growth and climate targets. Focus areas include renewable energy expansion, a just transition from coal, securing climate finance, and advocating for technology transfer. India pushes for commitments from developed nations on emissions cuts and financial support while highlighting its efforts in renewable energy, adaptation, and climate justice.
