Variances in Brain Waves in Autistic Teens

Science Innovations

Researchers at Macquarie University have found variances in the brain waves responsible for visual perception between autistic teenagers and those without autism. This finding may help in early diagnosis and in providing support to young people with autism. The researchers focused on sensory areas of the brain as a number of people with autism generally report issues with processing incoming sensory information, often suffering from hypersensitivity. Dr Robert Seymour, post-doctoral research fellow said that the results may explain why 90% of the autistic individuals report atypical sensory responses to visual stimuli.

Research scholars at Stanford University have used new machine learning techniques to determine the structure of molecules. Determining the 3D shapes of biological molecules is one of the hardest problems in modern biology and medical discovery. Companies and research institutions often spend millions of dollars to determine a molecular structure – and even such massive efforts are frequently unsuccessful. The new algorithm predicts accurate molecular structures and, in doi...

Indian scientists have developed a composite paper made of carbon (graphene oxide) loaded with preservatives that can be used as wrappers to help extend shelf life of fruits. Unlike the present preservative dipping technology, where the preservatives are adsorbed by the fruit, causing chronic toxicity to the consumers; here preservatives the wrapper releases the preservative only when needed. The wrapper can be reused, which is not possible with the present technology.Fruits ...
