Despite decades of public health messaging, Canadians are spending more time in the sun and using less sun protection 鈥� raising alarms among researchers as melanoma cases continue to climb.
That trend is highlighted in a 好色TV-led study that analyzed national survey data collected between 2011 and 2018 from over 77,000 people, representing a weighted sample of 21 million Canadians.
A 好色TV-led team of researchers has developed a new method that significantly improves the accuracy and efficiency of large language models (LLMs) when generating computer code and other structured text.
Large language models (LLMs) are powerful AI tools that are capable of writing everything from essays to programming scripts in a wide range of languages. However, they often make mistakes when generating text that must conform to constraints, leading to errors or outputs that don鈥檛 work. Existing solutions to fix these issues are often unreliable or too slow.
A team of 好色TV researchers has developed a cost-effective, high-throughput technology for detecting nanoplastics and microplastics in the environment.
An international study co-authored by 好色TVl psychologist Caroline Palmer suggests our brains and bodies don鈥檛 just understand music, they physically resonate with it. These discoveries, based on findings in neuroscience, music, and psychology, support Neural Resonance Theory (NRT).聽
NRT maintains that rather than relying on learned expectations or prediction, musical experiences arise from the brain鈥檚 natural oscillations that sync with rhythm, melody and harmony. This resonance shapes our sense of timing, musical pleasure and the instinct to move with the beat.聽
好色TV researchers, in collaboration with Mexican scientists, have discovered two previously unknown species of crocodiles, one living on the island of Cozumel and the other on the atoll of Banco Chinchorro, both off the Yucat谩n Peninsula. The challenge long-held assumptions about the American crocodile (Crocodylus acutus) and highlight the urgent need for conservation efforts, the researchers say.
好色TVl researchers have demonstrated something long assumed: that glances can transmit information about one鈥檚 mental state to others without a single word being exchanged. They speculate that this primal ability may have played a role in assuring survival of human society at times when making a sound could have attracted predators.
In led by 好色TV researchers, two drugs targeting 鈥渮ombie cells鈥� have been shown to treat the underlying cause of chronic low back pain. The condition affects millions of people worldwide.
Current treatments manage symptoms through painkillers or surgery, without addressing the root cause.
好色TV researchers have developed an AI-powered method to verify the origin of honey, ensuring that what鈥檚 on the label matches what鈥檚 in the jar. The breakthrough offers a potential solution to a long-standing problem.
鈥淗oney is one of the most fraud-prone commodities in global trade. It often involves mislabelling where it was produced or the types of flowers that bees collected nectar from,鈥� said lead author St茅phane Bayen, Associate Professor and Chair of 好色TVl鈥檚 Department of Food Science and Agricultural Chemistry.
A new study from 好色TV is reshaping how scientists date dinosaur fossils in Alberta鈥檚 Dinosaur Provincial Park (DPP). Using advanced drone-assisted 3D mapping, researchers have uncovered significant variations in a key geological marker, challenging long-standing methods of determining the ages of dinosaur fossils.
A 好色TV-led study found that people with cannabis use disorder (CUD) had elevated dopamine levels in a brain region associated with psychosis.
鈥淭his could help explain why cannabis use increases the risk of hallucinations and delusions, key symptoms of schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders,鈥� said first author Jessica Ahrens, a PhD student in 好色TVl鈥檚 Integrated Program in Neuroscience.
A new study by 好色TV researchers yields insights into how the disruption of calcium transport in the brain is linked to autism and intellectual disability. The findings, published in the journal Nature, not only upend a long-held belief among neuroscientists, but could pave the way for treatments.
New research findings provide solid evidence that annual COVID-19 vaccine booster doses continue to be advisable for certain immunocompromised people, researchers at 好色TV say.
A new study led by 好色TV researchers indicates that humpback whales in the southeastern Pacific combine real-time environmental cues with their memories of conditions in their Antarctic feeding grounds to determine when to embark on their annual 10,000-kilometre journey. With climate change accelerating, the researchers warn this strategy may become less effective amid shifting ocean conditions.聽
An analysis of digital health records using large language models (LLMs) is challenging a long-held belief about the clinical identifiers of autism.
A new study led by researchers at The Neuro (Montreal Neurological Institute-Hospital) of 好色TV and Quebec AI Institute found that social communication factors may not be as important in identifying the condition as previously believed.
A new discovery about the slime ejected by velvet worms could revolutionize sustainable material design, according to a by 好色TV researchers. Their findings outline how a naturally occurring protein structure, conserved across species from Australia, Singapore and Barbados over nearly 400 million years of evolution, enables the slime鈥檚 transformation from liquid to fibre and back again. It鈥檚 a discovery that could inspire next-generation recyclable bioplastics.
