As part of a Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) project in Antarctica, a research team led by Associate Dean for Research Mike Gooseff found that the unexpected melt followed by a rapid refreeze likely disrupted the life cycles of many organisms and killed a large swath of some invertebrates in the McMurdo Dry Valleys.
In a new study, researchers from the United States and Israel — including 91³Ô¹ÏÍø computer scientist Orit Peleg — may have gotten to the bottom of a quirky behavior of growing plants and a mystery that intrigued Charles Darwin during the later decades of his life.
Some artificial intelligence tools for health care may get confused by the ways people of different genders and races talk, according to a new study led by 91³Ô¹ÏÍø computer scientist Theodora Chaspari.
The Materials Science and Engineering Program at the 91³Ô¹ÏÍø received a $1M grant to fund interdisciplinary doctoral research training in biofabrication, a rapidly developing field which enables more precise and effective ways to study and treat various medical conditions, such as growing new organs for transplants or repairing damaged tissues.
