Alphafold AI and Robotic Science Lab Identified a New Liver Cancer Treatment
AlphaFold accelerates artificial intelligence powered drug discovery: efficient discovery of a novel CDK20 small molecule inhibitor”) has applied AlphaFold to an end-to-end AI-powered drug discovery platform (Pharma.AI) that includes a biocomputational engine (PandaOmics) and a generative chemistry platform (Chemistry42), to identify a new drug for a novel target for the treatment of the most common

A robotic exoskeleton adapts to wearers to help them walk faster
An exoskeleton that uses machine learning to adapt to its wearers’ gait could help make it easier for people with limited mobility to walk. The exoskeleton, which resembles a motorized boot, is lightweight and allows the wearer to move relatively freely, both increasing their walking speed and reducing the amount of energy they use while

The Download: robotic bees, and China’s surveillance state
Something was wrong, but Thomas Schmickl couldn’t put his finger on it. It was 2007, and the Austrian biologist was spending part of the year at East Tennessee State University. During his daily walks, he realized that insects seemed conspicuously absent. Schmickl, who now leads the Artificial Life Lab at the University of Graz in

Robotic Transcranial Doppler Improves PFO Detection After Stroke
The use of a robotic-assisted device to perform transcranial Doppler ultrasound greatly improved the detection of right-to-left cardiac shunts in patients with presumed embolic strokes compared with the current standard of care — transthoracic echocardiography, in a new study. In the study, the robotic-assisted TCD device detected three times as many large shunts that were…

See a large robotic arm ‘crawl’ across China’s space station (video)
Home News Tech Footage from China's space station shows how its large robotic arm can "crawl" along the outside of the spacecraft.The new video from the Chinese Manned Space Agency (CMSA) shows the space station's 33.5-foot-long (10.2 meters) robotic arm rising up from behind the Tianhe module and reaching out to find a docking port…

Robotic Drones Can Now Fly, Stop and Perch Just Like Birds
When it comes to doing aerobatic maneuvers, aerial drones seem to be rapidly catching up to birds. But flying robots also are becoming adept at another avian feat of agility that's nearly as amazing — the ability to land and perch on just about any object or surface, ranging from tree branches to telephone wires,…

Robotic heart surgery – What you should know and what you should ask
September 24, 2021
Hello, my name is Joseph Dearani, and I'm the Chair of Cardiovascular Surgery at the Mayo Clinic. And we're going to talk about robotic heart surgery. What you should know, and what questions you should ask. So robotics is really the ultimate in minimally invasive surgery. There is no bone breaking, and there's no significant…
