Genomic regulatory map of the zebrafish
Zebrafish and humans look very different on the outside. Yet about 70 percent of their genes are similar to human genes—including many that can trigger diseases. That makes the animal a popular model organism. Many observations of biological proces.....»»
Researcher creates algorithms to predict arsenic contamination in private wells
Despite the risks to human health, testing for arsenic isn't required for most private drinking wells in New Jersey. To help address this regulatory gap, a Rutgers researcher developed a machine learning model that can estimate arsenic contamination.....»»

Long-standing genomic mystery about the origins of introns explained in new study
One of the most long-standing, fundamental mysteries of biology surrounds the poorly understood origins of introns. Introns are segments of noncoding DNA that must be removed from the genetic code before it is translated in the process of making prot.....»»
Regulatory filings suggest Nvidia’s scrapped RTX 4080 will return as the “4070 Ti”
New branding is more consistent with older 1070 and 2070-series GPUs. Enlarge (credit: Nvidia) Last month, Nvidia took the unusual step of "unlaunching" a previously announced product. The 12GB version of the GeForce RTX.....»»
Study reveals genomic potential of active soil microbial populations under simulated winter conditions
Scientists estimate that northern peatlands contain one third of the Earth's soil carbon. This makes them important ecosystems for carbon storage, which keeps carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and controls climate change. In northern peatlands, ca.....»»
Cryptocurrency relates geopolitical bipolarity, seeking regulatory transparency
