Researchers have found that patients who suffered from type 2 diabetes reported greater improvements in their blood sugar levels when they exercised during the afternoon as compared to any other time of the day.

Siemens Healthineers offers a quantitative Covid-19 test to measure neutralizing antibodies. The company has also submitted an application to the FDA under Emergency Use Authorization.

Researchers from Brown University have developed a software that makes use of AI language models to break down instructions for the robot and also removes the need for training data. Thus, making it seamless for humans to communicate with robots.

Researchers have revealed details about a small, voice-activated device that makes DNA handling safer and hands-free for scientists and technicians working at the lab. The solution is also expected to prove useful for scientists with disabilities to conduct studies.

UC Santa Barbara researcher Satish Kumar and his team have developed an AI-powered tool called Methane Mapper that uses hyperspectral imaging to detect and trace real-time methane emissions. Methane Mapper, which achieves 91 percent accuracy and collects in-depth data from diverse terrain types, will eventually use satellites to monitor larger areas.

A new quantum sensing method has been developed which has the capability to detect and characterize molecules with greater precision. The technique could prove beneficial for environmental monitoring, medical diagnostics, and industrial processes.

Scientists have created a new way to detect the proteins that make up the pandemic coronavirus, as well as antibodies against it. They designed protein-based biosensors that glow when mixed with components of the virus or specific Covid-19 antibodies. This breakthrough could enable faster and more widespread testing in the near future.

The Human Reference Genome has been used as a standard for genetic data comparison, but it is flawed as it lacks diversity. That is why the Human Pangenome Reference Consortium has developed a pangenome that includes genomic sequences from 47 people around the world, making it more inclusive of human diversity.

What's all the buzz around futuristic labs or Labs of the Future?  // The adoption of next-gen technologies in order to come up with pioneering solutions in a highly-efficient environment is one of the central features of the Lab of the Future but is its development practical or a mere fantasy? Read on to find out…

The mosquito species Culex modestus has been found in Finland for the first time. In Southern Europe it is known to spread West Nile virus, but it is highly unlikely for the disease to occur in Finland.
