Researchers have developed an artificial intelligence platform to analyze potentially cancerous lesions in mammography scans to determine if a patient should receive an invasive biopsy. But unlike its many predecessors, the algorithm is interpretable, meaning it shows physicians exactly how it came to its conclusions.

Complex crystals that mimic metals -- including a structure for which there is no natural equivalent -- can be achieved with a new approach to guiding nanoparticle self-assembly.

Researchers have completed a comprehensive international validation of artificial intelligence (AI) for diagnosing and grading prostate cancer. The study shows that AI systems can identify and grade prostate cancer in tissue samples from different countries equally well as pathologists. The results suggest AI systems are ready to be responsibly introduced as a complementary tool in prostate cancer care, researchers say.

Efficient electrocatalysts, which are needed for the production of green hydrogen, for example, are hidden in materials composed of five or more elements. A team has developed an efficient method for identifying promising candidates in the myriad of possible materials. To this end, the researchers combined experiments and simulation.

Researchers demonstrated that phosphorus-alloying significantly increases the activity of precious metal nanoparticles for the deoxygenation of sulfoxides into sulfides. In particular, ruthenium phosphide nanoparticles exhibit excellent catalytic activity and high durability against sulfur-poisoning, outperforming conventional catalysts.

Chemists have solved a problem in the field of organic synthesis that had been considered a challenge for years. To do so, they employed what is known as ternary catalysis.

Sweating it out through exercise may be a New Year's resolution but it could also help to provide new insights into the state of your health, according to new sensing technology being developed.
