Age-adaptive polymeric skin electronics enhance neural data and machine learning accuracy
Skin-interfaced bioelectronics can help enhance health monitoring and early disease prediction. However, biomechanical and compositional differences in skin, such as dryness, wrinkling, and thinning due to the loss of collagen, can alter skin electrical impedance and conductance, compromising the functionalities of these devices.

Signal in the silence: Researchers uncover hidden potential in discarded MRI data
In every functional MRI scan, after the whir and pounding begins, there is a brief 10 to 20 seconds of stabilization as the machine’s magnetic field settles into place. For decades, scientists have treated this period as dead time, discarding the data or “dummy scans.”
AI predicts when donor livers are viable, potentially slashing canceled transplants by 60%
There are more candidates on the waitlist for a liver transplant than there are available organs, yet about half the time a match is found with a donor who dies after cardiac arrest following the removal of life support, the transplant must be canceled.
