It's still a mystery how snails ended up scattered around the globe

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

Joris Hoefnagel: How do organisms that are so sedentary end up being so widely dispersed? He says there have been surprisingly few experimental efforts to explore the possible avenues by which Hawaii's snails might have crossed oceans to arrive in their new home. He says Charles Darwin, in a letter to Alfred Russel Wallace in 1857, summed up the situation succinctly.See the Story

Integrating humans with AI in structural design

100% Center coverage: 2 sources

Researchers at MIT have found a way to achieve some of the best of both of these approaches. They used an automated design system but stopped the process periodically to allow human engineers to evaluate the work in progress. The system can be used to optimize a design based on any desired properties, not just strength and weight.

How Huntington’S Disease Affects Different Neurons

100% Center coverage: 4 sources

Neurons in a part of the brain called the striatum are among the hardest-hit. Degeneration of these neurons contributes to patients' loss of motor control. Damage to the other population, located in structures called striosomes, may account for the mood disorders often see in the early stages of the disease.
