Researchers investigating atomic-scale phenomena impacting next-generation electronic and quantum devices have captured the first microscopy images of atomic thermal vibrations, revealing a new type of motion that could reshape the design of quantum technologies and ultrathin electronics. Yichao Zhang, an assistant professor in the University of Maryland Department of MaterialsContinue Reading
Imagine trying to wear a left-handed glove on your right hand: it doesn’t fit because left and right hands are mirror images that can’t be superimposed on each other. This ‘handedness’ is what scientists call chirality, and it plays a fundamental role in biology, chemistry, and materials science. Most DNAContinue Reading
“Space ice” contains tiny crystals and is not, as previously assumed, a completely disordered material like liquid water, according to a new study by scientists at UCL (University College London) and the University of Cambridge. Ice in space is different to the crystalline (highly ordered) form of ice on Earth.Continue Reading
As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to advance, researchers at POSTECH (Pohang University of Science and Technology) have identified a breakthrough that could make AI technologies faster and more efficient. Professor Seyoung Kim and Dr. Hyunjeong Kwak from the Departments of Materials Science & Engineering and Semiconductor Engineering at POSTECH, inContinue Reading
In the intricate world of quantum physics, where particles interact in ways that seem to defy the standard rules of space and time, lies a profound mystery that continues to captivate scientists: the nature of deconfined quantum critical points (DQCPs). These elusive critical phenomena break away from the conventional frameworkContinue Reading
Biologists and chemists have a new programming language to uncover previously unknown environmental pollutants at breakneck speed — without requiring them to code. By making it easier to search massive chemical datasets, the tool has already identified toxic compounds hidden in plain sight. Mass spectrometry data is like a chemicalContinue Reading
The real-world data collected and derived from patient journeys offers a wealth of insights into patient characteristics and outcomes and the effectiveness and safety of medical innovations. Researchers ask questions about patient populations in the form of structured queries; however, without the right choice of structured query and deep familiarityContinue Reading
This post is co-written with Maciej Mensfeld from Mend.io. In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, the ability to effectively analyze and categorize Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) is crucial. This post explores how Mend.io, a cybersecurity firm, used Anthropic Claude on Amazon Bedrock to classify and identify CVEs containing specificContinue Reading
4kodiak Much of the investor attention surrounding Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) is about its cloud computing prospects and generative artificial intelligence offerings. While the tech giant has other levers for growth — including devices, video games and more — cybersecurity is an area that is increasingly gaining attention, according to KeyBanc CapitalContinue Reading
