A newly developed open-source tool designed for rigorous reanalysis of genomic data is highly effective at detecting new rare disease diagnoses. The tool's ability to frequently and automatically reexamine stored DNA data will ensure more timely answers for hundreds of families.

From detecting pneumonia on a chest X-ray to assessing whether a dark spot on the skin is benign or malignant, medical AI systems are playing an increasingly important role in clinical diagnosis. Unfortunately, the models used to train these AI systems are often victims of cybera

A collaborative research team has identified a novel blood-based biomarker capable of detecting early-stage lung cancer and predicting patient prognosis. The findings are published in the Journal of Extracellular Vesicles.

NASA's exoplanet-hunting spacecraft TESS has a new method for detecting worlds beyond the solar system, and it is thanks to Einstein.

Medications can save lives, yet for some drugs, the concentration in a patient's bloodstream determines whether a treatment is effective or whether harmful side effects may occur. Researchers at the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology (Leibniz IPHT) in Jena, Germany, have de

McGill University researchers have developed a light-detecting nanoscale structure that mimics how a neuron processes information. The neuron-like behavior emerges from the materials themselves, reducing the energy demand associated with similar devices that rely on circuits or s

A new study finds a widely used technique for assessing the health of freshwater streams is not effective at detecting a range of water quality problems, including those related to acidity, oxygen levels and the presence of pathogens.
