Fallen av bröstcancer mellan två screeningundersökningar blev färre, och av de cancrar som hann utvecklas var färre allvarliga och aggressiva. Nu är slutresultaten från Lunds universitets forskningsstudie MASAI klara, och de visar på ytterligare nytta med AI-stödd bröstcancerscreening. Studien har redan tidigare visat att AI-stöd bidrar till 29 procent fler hittade fall av bröstcancer jämfört med

Utvecklingen av intelligenta robotar tillsammans med möjligheten att ändra i människors DNA, och kanske – att stöta på liv i rymden! Det är faktorer som gör det brådskande att tänka igenom hur vi ska definiera vad som är liv och anses som levande. En forskargrupp på Pufendorfinstitutet har nu tagit sig an denna stor

Last year was the warmest year on record and 2024 is on track to be even warmer. Democracy is in decline and food insecurity is increasing as a result of military conflicts, economic crises and extreme weather. The ability of the United Nations to act globally is significantly weaker than before owing to the geopolitical situation. This comes at a time when we really need international cooperation

When electrons move within a molecule or semiconductor, this occurs on unimaginably short time scales. A Swedish-German has now made significant progress toward a better understanding of these ultrafast processes: The researchers were able to track the dynamics of electrons released from the surface of zinc oxide crystals using laser pulses with spatial resolution in the nanometre range and at pre
