A study underscores the value of physical activity. Researchers found patients who responded in a survey that they are physically active have a statistically significant lower risk of having 19 chronic conditions. University of Iowa researchers are recommending all patients be surveyed about their physical activity levels, after a new study underscores the link between
A special report outlines opportunities to enhance justice in genomics, toward a world in which genomic medicine promotes health equity, protects privacy, and respects the rights and values of individuals and communities. Genomics is being integrated into biomedical research, medicine, and public health at a rapid pace, but the capacities necessary to ensure the fair

Researchers design a new way to more reliably evaluate AI models' ability to make clinical decisions in realistic scenarios that closely mimic real-life interactions. The analysis finds that large-language models excel at making diagnoses from exam-style questions but struggle to do so from conversational notes. The researchers propose set of guidelines to optimize AI tools'

University of Wisconsin--Madison engineers have developed low-cost sensors that allow for real-time, continuous monitoring of nitrate in soil types that are common in Wisconsin. These printed electrochemical sensors could enable farmers to make better informed nutrient management decisions and reap economic benefits. University of Wisconsin-Madison engineers have developed low-cost sensors that allow for real-time, continuous
Children who are not considered 'school ready' by their teachers are more than twice as likely to become persistently absent at some point in their education, according to a new study.

Neuroscientists have discovered how the brain bidirectionally controls sensitivity to threats to initiate and complete escape behaviour in mice. These findings could help unlock new directions for discovering therapies for anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

That people are drawn to others who are similar in physical attractiveness. This study highlights the importance of self-perception and the role it plays in mate selection. It also emphasizes the concept of "matching" in relationships, shedding light on the dynamics of physical attraction and its impact on partner selection. Overall, the study provides intriguing insights into the intricate nature of human relationships and the role of physical attractiveness in partner preferences
Sahiti Chebolu from the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics delves into the complex world of procrastination, using a precise mathematical framework to understand its various patterns and underlying reasons. Her research offers valuable insights that have the potential to revolutionize strategies for reclaiming productivity and combatting procrastination
Recent study utilized statistical modeling to analyze the impact of Texas' abortion ban on infant mortality rates. The findings revealed a significant increase in infant deaths, particularly among infants with congenital anomalies, following the implementation of the strict abortion law. This research sheds light on the potential consequences of such legislation and highlights the importance of reproductive rights in safeguarding maternal and infant health
Over a 20-year period people from these sectors changed their behavior -- resonating with one another significantly more than they used to and gearing towards a more engaging style. We talk like others to be more inclusive and 'resonate' with them. People from the corporate world and higher education sectors are increasingly adopting each other's
Children who report being more empathetic are more likely to show signs of poorer health in the face of more interparental conflict than less empathetic children, according to a new study.

Young people aged 14 to 20 years are nowadays more satisfied with being single than their counterparts ten years ago. Young people aged 14 to 20 years are nowadays more satisfied with being single than their counterparts ten years ago. This is the conclusion of a study undertaken by the Institute of Psychology at Johannes
Many dynamic processes can be described mathematically with the aid of stochastic partial differential equations. Scientists have found a new method which helps to solve a certain class of such equations. Whether it's physical phenomena, share prices or climate models -- many dynamic processes in our world can be described mathematically with the aid of
Do you have trouble recognizing faces, or do you never forget a face? The better you are at facial recognition, the more supportive relationships you are likely to have, regardless of your personality type. Do you have trouble recognising faces, or do you never forget a face? The better you are at facial recognition, the
The cost of nutritious food and the lack of access to it are of significant concern to U.S. consumers. New public opinion poll and expert analysis reflect crucial need to make healthy food accessible to avert projected crisis in cardiovascular disease incidence, costs.
