How credible are research results? A new biology study shows that the same data can give different answers depending on the method of analysis used – raising questions about the stability of scientific conclusions. To strengthen credibility, researchers need to be better at accounting for their methods. Ever since the 17th century, when modern scientific research was born, methods have been refine

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Risken är att en stor del av all kommunikation på sociala medier är olaglig. I juli kom EU-domstolen med den så kallade Schrems II-domen, som skulle kunna få stora konsekvenser för bland andra Facebook och Instagram. Läget är mycket oklart i nuläget, säger juristprofessor Vilhelm Persson. Bakgrunden är GDPR-reglerin

By utilising quantum mechanics, a quantum computer can solve computational problems that today's supercomputers cannot. But there are problems. As the circuits in quantum computers get bigger, they become more difficult to control. Researchers have demonstrated a new way to construct quantum circuits for individual light particles. This could enable larger and more complex circuits – crucial to un
