In order to optimize traffic flow through city streets, municipalities often install car-counting cameras or other sensors at a few set locations. A new study, however, suggests that using existing bus-mounted cameras may be a better way to go.

Using old insurance maps, researchers enabled a machine-learning system to create 3D models of neighborhoods that no longer exist. The technique could lead to VR tours of the 'hoods, as well as provide data on the various impacts of urbanization.

A new clinical trial has found that an eye drop commonly used before eye exams may be a safe and effective way of slowing the progression of nearsightedness in children, a condition that can lead to visual impairment later in life.

Want to play a part in the survival of bumblebees? Cater for them! A new study has revealed which plants these VIPs (very important pollinators) make a beeline for, so you can grow their favorite flora and help these fuzzy fussy eaters thrive.

Overweight and obesity have been associated with many health conditions, including diseases such as cancer. A new study has found a link between weight across different life stages and the risk of developing gastrointestinal cancer.

Whether they're patients with degenerative diseases or astronauts in weightless environments, there are some people who need to know if their muscles are wasting away. A new wearable could one day allow them to check, when and wherever they wish.

Ohio State researchers have shown how a common ceramic material can change its thermal conductivity in response to an electrical field, opening the door to solid-state heat switches that could make thermoelectric generators much more efficient.

Despite making up 85% of the total mass in the universe, dark matter eludes detection. A new study proposes a unique way to look for it using the Earth’s atmosphere as a giant detector for dark matter particles streaming through the air like meteors.

Treatments for osteoarthritis-related knee pain range from medication all the way up to knee joint replacement. The recently trialled Misha Knee System is intended to help fill the gap between those extremes, by acting as an implanted shock absorber.

Most treatments for strokes aim to help reduce or repair damage to affected neurons. But a new study in mice has shown that a drug already in use could help stroke patients regain motor function by getting undamaged neurons to pick up the slack.

Researchers have shown in mice how a heightened sense of alert among immune cells may drive some of the long-term consequences to cognitive function after concussion, and opened up new possibilities around therapies for human sufferers.

In the event of a traumatic brain injury (TBI), chemical changes take place that can act as precursors for secondary damage, and scientists at Ohio State University have demonstrated a new monitoring device that can pick up these warning signs.
