AI helps to improve Cancer detection.
Ai and Radiologists team up for a 20% improvement in breast cancer detection.
“Preliminary results from a Swedish trial showed that artificial intelligence is helping radiologists reduce their workload and detect more cases. (euronews.com) “ The researchers looked at scans from more than 80,000 women. The screenings supported by AI resulted in a cancer detection rate of 6 per 1,000 screened women, compared with 5 per 1,000 with the standard approach. -Cnn.com

Scientists Create New Material Five Times Lighter and Four Times Stronger Than Steel
Inspired by iron man?
From scitechdaily.com, Researchers from the University of Connecticut and colleagues have created a highly durable, lightweight material by structuring DNA and then coating it in glass. The resulting product, characterized by its nanolattice structure, exhibits a unique combination of strength and low density, making it potentially useful in applications like vehicle manufacturing and body armor. “I am a big fan of Iron Man movies, and I have always wondered how to create a better armor for Iron Man. says Seok-Woo Lee, a materials scientist at UConn.
