Professor Yeonhee Park of the Department of Statistics at Sungkyunkwan University has developed a novel statistical framework — MARGO (Machine Learning-Assisted Adaptive Randomization for Group Sequential Trials Based on Overlap Weights) — that makes machine learning practically applicable in clinical trial design.

A team including EPFL engineers has designed a rotating platform whose controlled spin can make flexible beams snap between two stable states. The simple, fast method can encode binary information directly into materials without electronics.

New research in the Wasatch Front found that when air pollution was higher than the EPA daily limit in the week before surgery, the risk of post-surgical complications increased.

The Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore (NUS Medicine) today announced a research partnership with MitoQ New Zealand to examine the potential role of MitoQ® (mitoquinol mesylate), a mitochondria-targeted antioxidant, in supporting healthy ageing. Building on existing scientific literature, the partnership aims to generate evidence on whether MitoQ® can slow or improve markers of biological ageing and support longevity potential. The joint study will also evaluate the effectiveness of biological ageing clocks in assessing health supplements and other interventions more rapidly than conventional long-term clinical trials.
