Support vector machines improve classification by mapping inseparable signals into higher-dimensional spaces. Random forest models, through ensemble decision trees, increase robustness against ...

Monkeypox is a growing current health concern, with a potentially fatal variant of human mpox spreading across certain African countries, and a different non-lethal variant also now being observed ...

Porous silicon (PSi) has emerged as a highly versatile material for biosensing and optical applications, owing to its high internal surface area, tunable pore sizes and exceptional optical properties.

Biosensing has been valuable for detecting biomolecules, including novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), but achieving both high sensitivity and rapidity has been challenging. Rapid and high-sensitivity ...

Jun 26, 2025 Scientists build first self-illuminating biosensor Engineers have harnessed quantum physics to detect the presence of biomolecules without the need for an external light source, ...

On immune cells, Toll-like receptors are capable of detecting infections just like a sniffer dog, using special sensors known as Toll-like receptors, or TLRs for short. But what signals activate TLRs, ...

A telecommunications engineer of the NUP/UPNA-Public University of Navarre, has designed in his Ph.D. thesis optical resonance-based biosensors for use in medical applications like, for example, the ...

Scientists at Cornell University, NY, have developed a synthetic biosensor that mimics properties found in cell membranes and provides an electronic readout of activity. They say it “could lead to a ...

A new variant of human mpox has claimed the lives of approximately 5% of people with reported infections in the Democratic Republic of the Congo since 2023, many of them children. Since then, it has ...
