Scientists at University of Galway have taken part in a first-in-human study on stroke patients using a thin wire fitted with sensors to assess and map the clot they have experienced.

Common, wide-ranging vertebrate species, such as foxes, may be finding more suitable habitat in towns and cities than in the wider landscape, while rarer species – which live in smaller areas – appear to favour different habitats, according to new research into species across Europe. 

A new CMCC-led study looks at how European industry can decarbonize without deindustrializing, laying out a future pathway that can combine competitiveness and environmental goals. The study finds that energy-intensive industries in Europe can attain both, but only through targeted investments and policies for specific sectors, whilst focusing on importing green intermediate products and maintaining the final part of the supply chain.  

The pressure to be the perfect parent can be overwhelming, but social media and perceived world threats are causing some to be overprotective parents, and it is having a negative impact on our youth.

Researchers at Durham University have developed a new drone navigation system that enables autonomous aircraft to fly faster, more smoothly and more safely through crowded and obstacle-filled environments.

Executives increasingly turn to generative AI to help evaluate strategic decisions, from ranking business models to weighing competing options — but new research published in Strategic Management Journal cautions that no single AI-generated evaluation should be trusted at face value. The study finds that individual generative AI evaluations of strategic decisions are inconsistent and often biased, simply by the order in which two options are presented — but aggregating many evaluations across different prompts, roles, and models produces judgments that closely resemble those of human experts.

The research team of Anil R. Doshi of University College London, J. Jason Bell of the University of Oxford, and Emil Mirzayev and Bart Vanneste, both of University College London, tested large language models by having them rank 60 business models through pairwise comparisons, repeated across multiple models, ten assumed roles — including journalist, strategy professor, and industry expert — and two prompting strategies. No human expert panel evaluates the same option set that many ways, giving the researchers a rare way to measure where AI’s judgment holds up, and where it doesn’t.
