Do responses generated by artificial intelligence systems such as ChatGPT reflect social prejudice? A KAIST research team has quantitatively analyzed and identified age-related stereotypes embedded in the responses of generative artificial intelligence. The study sheds light on t

RNA interference is a natural mechanism for living cells to control whether specific genes are being used. Crowned with the 2006 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, the discovery of RNA interference has since been harnessed by scientists to create a powerful and growing class

Over 70 million people in the U.S. are impacted by hearing loss, and age-related hearing loss is the second most common health problem in older adults, according to the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health. However, scientists still do not fully understand how the cochlea

Published in Nature Climate Change, new research from the University of Wisconsin–Madison finds that reaching net-zero emissions by midcentury would substantially improve public health in the United States. However, climate strategies that heavily depend on carbon dioxide removal

Coral reef decline driven by climate change could cost Hawaiʻi residents between $1.8 billion and $3 billion in lost reef-related activities by 2100, according to a new study published in Ecological Economics. The research projects that these burdens will not fall equally, with l

Many important medicines and agricultural compounds have origins in natural products made by microorganisms. One such compound is prodigiosin, a vivid red pigment produced by certain bacteria. Beyond its color, prodigiosin and related compounds known as prodiginines have attracte

A new study finds that publicly traded companies that disclose more numbers related to what they pay in taxes improve their transparency, allowing the market to make more informed investing decisions. The finding highlights an exception to previous work that suggested including m

A University of Miami study has developed a new approach to evaluate how multiple climate resilience plans work together—or fail to do so—in addressing the growing risks posed by climate-related hazards. The researchers analyzed 37 resilience plans developed at the regional, coun

Extreme weather events are becoming increasingly frequent and severe. The El Niño predicted for 2026–2027 is one such event. These events have caused environmental, economic and social impacts in Brazil, requiring specific public policies. To transform scientific data into a foun

A surprising discovery is reshaping scientists' understanding of how humans develop sharp central vision before birth. Instead of blue cone cells migrating away from the retina's center, the study found they transform into red and green cones under the influence of vitamin A-rela

A joint research team led by Professor Narae Lee from the School of Business and Technology Management at KAIST, in collaboration with Professor Heli Wang from Singapore Management University (SMU), analyzed immigration-related legislation and environmental data across the United

You may be spotting dead bumblebees lying on pavements near you during the summer months. There are several reasons for this, some related to the weather and some very much due to humans.
