A student in an Advanced Placement biology class might dissect a fetal pig to study internal organs and the skeleton. But can a student get the same level of experience from a virtual dissection ...

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory has published an extensive paper confirming the validity of its 2022 fusion experiment where multiple lasers focused on a sphere of deuterium and tritium to ...

Humans have unwittingly been carrying out evolution experiments for millennia through the domestication of plants, animals, and fungi. Starting with the seminal experiments of William Dallinger in the ...

Sometimes science can be painfully slow. Data comes in dribs and drabs, truth trickles, and veracity proves viscous. The world's longest-running lab experiment is an ongoing work in sheer scientific ...

Artificial intelligence is rapidly learning to autonomously design and run biological experiments, but the systems intended to govern those capabilities are struggling to keep pace. This is ...

Eight years ago, a team of researchers launched a project to carefully repeat early but influential lab experiments in cancer research. They re-created 50 experiments, the type of preliminary research ...

Joseph Agnew, undergrad and research assistant from the University of Alabama in Huntsville’s Propulsion Research Center (PRC), presented the results of his study “An Examination of Warp Theory and ...

A virtual laboratory under development at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro aims to let students experiment with physics concepts without physically being in a lab. Computer simulations ...

OpenAI’s GPT can summarize research papers and make predictions—but can it do science? Can it generate hypotheses, design experiments, interpret results and iterate? Last summer researchers at OpenAI ...

“COVID brought our research activities essentially to a complete halt,” said Jared Hysinger ’21, voicing the reality for researchers around the world whose labs have been forced to close due to ...
