When a molecule of tryptophan absorbs ultraviolet light, it glows faintly as it lets off lower-frequency energy. This soft glow, known as fluorescence, is a familiar effect. But when many tryptophan ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) tools are increasingly helping scientists to write papers, conduct literature reviews and even design laboratory experiments. Now researchers can add optimizing quantum ...

Explore how neuromorphic chips and brain-inspired computing bring low-power, efficient intelligence to edge AI, robotics, and ...

Electrons start behaving strangely when they are squeezed into extremely flat sheets such as graphene, which is just one atom thick. This makes graphene a promising material for generating robust ...

Explore how nanotechnology acts as the 'Convergence Engine' for AI materials discovery, CRISPR gene therapy delivery, and ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — It’s estimated it can take an AI model over 6,000 joules of energy to generate a single text response. By comparison, your brain needs just 20 joules every second to keep you alive and ...

Human behaviour is an enigma that fascinates many scientists. And there has been much discussion over the role of probability in explaining how our minds work.Probability is a mathematical framework d ...

An interdisciplinary team of researchers are working on a radically new kind of computer called a neuromorphic computer, inspired by the human brain. Mock-up of a quantum photonic device, which could ...

Researchers are no longer just simulating brains in silicon, they are wiring living human neurons into machines and asking them to compute. Tiny clusters of brain cells, grown from stem cells and ...

There are currently about 80 companies across the world manufacturing quantum computing hardware. Because I report on quantum computing, I have had a chance to watch it grow as an industry from up ...

Quantum computing is generating a lot of excitement in the tech world right now. Following several recent breakthroughs, this once theoretical technology is increasingly accessible to researchers and ...

Creating revolutionary pharmaceutical drugs, testing new materials for cars and simulating how market scenarios can affect banks — these are just some of the tasks that could take months or years to ...
