Carbon is everywhere. It forms the graphite in pencils, the diamonds in jewelry and the molecules that make up every living thing. Under extreme conditions -- like the heat and pressure of intense ...

As transit agencies face growing climate risks and limited capital budgets, deciding which flood protection measures to implement—and where—has become a critical challenge. Now, a research team at NYU ...

We've uploaded a fruit fly. We took the @FlyWireNews connectome of the fruit fly brain, applied a simple neuron model ( @Philip_Shiu Nature 2024) and used it to control a MuJoCo physics-simulated body ...

Early demo hints at a future sci-fi writers warned us about San Francisco startup Eon Systems claims that it has created the first digital simulation of a fruit fly brain that can control a virtual ...

Researchers have identified a potential mechanism that explains how turbulent plasma can produce the vast, ordered magnetic fields observed across the universe Cosmic magnetic fields are everywhere, ...

In this spirit of rigorous worldbuilding, we just published a new study where we merged the disparate disciplines of literary worldbuilding and climate modelling. We used complex computer programs – ...

The Modelling-Informed Medicine Centre will create computer models or digital twins of organs and diseases to better understand how diseases of the lungs, liver, and kidneys progress, to discover and ...

Located at CeSViMa in Madrid, the Magerit high-performance computing system allows scientists to run complex simulations across aerospace and environmental research.

Computing and data shape nearly every aspect of modern life. In recent years, efforts to expand data and computing education in K-12 settings have grown rapidly but unevenly. A new National Academies ...

One of the defining features of George R.R. Martin’s Game of Thrones is the unpredictable and prolonged seasons of Westeros. This unique climatic feature is not just backstory. It’s a crucial plot ...

It provides a dynamic, time-resolved view of planetary transformation, a missing link between young inflated worlds and the compact sub-Neptunes that populate the galaxy.

By simulating the life cycle of a minimal bacterial cell, from DNA replication to protein translation to metabolism and cell division, scientists have opened a new frontier of computer vision into the ...
