Innovative Therapy Boosts Natural Killer Cells to Fight Blood Cancers: Study

USA: Medical researchers at the University of Minnesota have developed an experimental method for treating hard-to-treat blood cancers using natural killer cells pre-treated with nicotinamide, a compound commonly known as vitamin B3. These natural killer cells are part of the body’s immune system and have the unique ability to target and destroy malignant cells.

A recent study, published in Science Translational Medicine by Frank Cichocki and colleagues, highlights the potential of this approach in treating relapsed or refractory leukemias and lymphomas, where traditional treatments have often failed. The study involved boosting the effectiveness of natural killer cells through pre-treatment with nicotinamide and interleukin-15 (IL-15).

This Portable Innovation Saves Lives by Bringing Doctors to 30 Lakh Pregnant Women

“High-risk mothers in many parts of rural India are usually identified in the third trimester, which is around the eighth month of pregnancy. However, by this time, it’s often too late to manage complications before labour. This can lead to fatal outcomes,” says Senthil Kumar Murugesan.

An electronics and communications engineer by profession, Senthil is trying to bridge this gap with JioVio Healthcare, an IoT-based maternal healthcare startup that provides early-risk monitoring services at home.

He first encountered the pregnancy healthcare gap when his sister was pregnant in 2016. She is a career-driven woman and would miss her antenatal appointments due to the lack of time. Also, the… More.

Madurai’s Senthil Kumar started JioVio Healthcare, which provides early risk monitoring for pregnant women in rural India. So far, he has catered to 30 lakh women in Kerala, Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Tamil Nadu.

Researchers develop ‘Woodpecker’: A groundbreaking solution to AI’s hallucination problem

VentureBeat presents: AI Unleashed — An exclusive executive event for enterprise data leaders. Network and learn with industry peers. Learn More

A group of artificial intelligence researchers from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) and Tencent YouTu Lab have developed an innovative framework, coined as “Woodpecker”, designed to correct hallucinations in multimodal large language models (MLLMs).

The research paper outlining this groundbreaking approach was published on the pre-print server arXiv, under the title Woodpecker: Hallucination Correction for Multimodal Large Language Models.

NIST reveals new superconducting camera technology with 400,000 pixels

Intricate details within the human brain, faint signals in outer space, say cheese!

Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and their collaborators revealed the creation of a superconducting camera in a statement.

Boasting an impressive 400,000 pixels, this innovative leap represents a four-hundred-fold increase in pixel count compared to any other device of its kind, revolutionizing the way scientists can capture faint light signals from the far reaches of space or explore intricate details within the human brain.

Virtual Reality Generates Cold Sensations Without Real Temperature Shifts

Summary: Researchers have created a groundbreaking non-contact technology to simulate cold sensations in virtual reality, maintaining consistent skin temperatures.

By combining cold airflow and light, they induce cold sensations without actual temperature shifts. This breakthrough provides a novel approach to simulating persistent thermal experiences in VR environments, enhancing the user’s immersion.

The technology holds the promise of revolutionizing VR experiences by providing instantaneous and sustained thermal sensations.

Ultra-bright light breakthrough could spark ‘technological and scientific revolution’

A new method of producing an ultra-bright light which breaks traditional laws of particle physics could potentially spark a technological revolution.

The ultra-bright light, a form of ‘coherent light’, is created by particles moving in synchrony rather than independently. This synchrony creates incredibly fast, intense pulses that operate on a scale of atto-seconds – or one thousandth of a millionth of a billionth of a second.

While machines that can currently create ultra-bright light are miles long, scientists have now produced plans for a light source that can fit into a single room. The discovery could create a “mini-societal, technological and scientific revolution”, the researchers behind the development told BBC Science Focus.

Oxford researchers’ photonic-electronic AI chip puts apps on steroids

The team estimates that their hardware can outperform the best electronic processors by a factor of 100 in terms of energy efficiency and compute density.

A team of scientists from Oxford University and their partners from Germany and the UK have developed a new kind of AI hardware that uses light to process three-dimensional (3D) data. Based on integrated photonic-electronic chips, the hardware can perform complex calculations in parallel using different wavelengths and radio frequencies of light. The team claims their hardware can boost the data processing speed and efficiency for AI tasks by several orders of magnitude.

AI computing and processing power

The research published today in the journal Nature Photonics addresses the challenge of meeting modern AI applications’ increasing demand for computing power. The conventional computer chips, which rely on electronics, need help to keep up with the pace of AI innovation, which requires doubling the processing power every 3.5 months. The team says that using light instead of electronics offers a new way of computing that can overcome this bottleneck.
