Researchers from Deakin University, Black Dog Institute and UNSW have completed an AI-optimized trial testing digital mental health interventions for university students experiencing psychological distress.
Researchers at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine have developed a new approach for identifying individuals with skin cancer that combines genetic ancestry, lifestyle and social determinants of health using a machine learning model. Their model, more accurate than existing approaches, also helped the researchers better characterize disparities in skin cancer risk and outcomes.
Few primary care practices are designed for the timely detection of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. The limited time that primary care clinicians are able to spend with patients, the need to focus on the health problems that brought the patient to the clinic, as well as the stigma of Alzheimer’s disease and dementia are major reasons for lack of recognition of the condition.
BraDiPho (Brain Dissection Photogrammetry) is an innovative tool for the study of white matter connections in the human brain. The realistic map was developed by a group of researchers from the University of Trento, the Provincial Healthcare Service of Trento, Fondazione Bruno Kessler and the Universities of Bordeaux and Sherbrooke.
Artificial intelligence (AI) and “protein language” models can speed the design of monoclonal antibodies that prevent or reduce the severity of potentially life-threatening viral infections, according to a multi-institutional study led by researchers at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.
Volta Medical has announced the U.S. launch of its AF-Xplorer II system, the company’s ‘next-generation’ AI solution which it says is designed to simplify real-time assessment of complex AF.
For the first time, a research team led by the Mark and Mary Stevens Neuroimaging and Informatics Institute (Stevens INI) at the Keck School of Medicine of USC has mapped the genetic architecture of a crucial part of the human brain known as the corpus callosum—the thick band of nerve fibers that connects the brain’s left and right hemispheres. The findings open new pathways for discoveries about mental illness, neurological disorders and other diseases related to defects in this part of the brain.
Chromosomal abnormalities—numerical and structural defects in chromosomes—are a common first step in this process, often contributing to normal cells turning cancerous.
In a new study, University of Arizona researchers created a model for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, a type of skin cancer, and identified two mutated tumor proteins, or neoantigens, that contain features of good candidates for a vaccine.
Researchers from Johns Hopkins Medicine and the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health report that an AI-powered lifestyle intervention app for prediabetes reduced the risk of diabetes similarly to traditional, human-led programs in adults.
