Microbial study reveals extended lifespan of starved bacteria Posted: 13 Aug 2021 12:20 PM PDT New research shows how bacteria can overcome starvation situations and survive for an extended period, which has broader implications for chronic infections. |
Faster path planning for rubble-roving robots Posted: 13 Aug 2021 12:19 PM PDT Robots that need to use their arms to make their way across treacherous terrain just got a speed upgrade with a new path planning approach. The improved algorithm path planning algorithm found successful paths three times as often as standard algorithms, while needing much less processing time. |
Progress in algorithms makes small, noisy quantum computers viable Posted: 13 Aug 2021 07:03 AM PDT Instead of waiting for fully mature quantum computers to emerge, researchers have developed hybrid classical/quantum algorithms to extract the most performance -- and potentially quantum advantage -- from today's noisy, error-prone hardware. |
Unprecedented peek into life of 17,000-year-old mammoth Posted: 12 Aug 2021 11:50 AM PDT An international research team has retraced the astonishing lifetime journey of an Arctic woolly mammoth, which covered enough of the Alaska landscape during its 28 years to almost circle the Earth twice. |
Analysis can predict individual differences in cardiovascular responses to altered gravity Posted: 12 Aug 2021 10:59 AM PDT With recent trips to space travel by business moguls like Jeff Bezos and Richard Branson, visiting the edge of space has never been more within the grasp of commercial travel. However, at these altitudes, passengers experience weightlessness, or more generally, altered gravity, that can affect the body's normal physiology. |
