A team of scientists and students from TU Delft has taken first place at the A2RL Drone Championship in Abu Dhabi - an international race that pushes the limits of physical artificial intelligence, challenging teams to fly fully autonomous drones using only a single camera.

Anthropologist Susana Narotzky publishes an article in which she shows how the global economy increasingly relies on precarious, unrecognized and invisible forms of labour that fragment the working class and call into question traditional categories of labour and class.

The City of Mendrisio, in collaboration with Handy System and SUPSI's Service for Forensic Informatics (SIF), presented DEEP: a video-translator totem equipped with a camera capable of recording and translating from Italian Sign Language (LIS) to Italian and vice versa.

Were the lockdown policies implemented around the globe during the Covid-19 pandemic racist? A thought-provoking new paper by our Philosophy Professor Alex Broadbent and Pieter Streicher of the University of Johannesburg, argues that lockdowns during Covid-19 were racist.

Avalanche bulletin and snow situation To enhance biodiversity across aquatic and terrestrial systems, natural areas of high ecological value need to be interconnected. However, the necessary collaboration between different stakeholders is often lacking, particularly in urban areas. This is shown by a new study as part of the Blue-Green Biodiversity research initiative.

To diagnose lung cancer and determine the optimal treatment strategy, physicians typically rely on tissue examination.

Men experiencing intimate partner violence turn to harmful coping strategies due to limited services and persistent social stigma, according to a new Simon Fraser University study.

A brisk walking pace, and the amount of time spent at this speed, may lower the risk of heart rhythm abnormalities, such as atrial fibrillation, tachycardia (rapid heartbeat), and bradycardia (very slow heartbeat), finds research led by the University of Glasgow and published online in the journal Heart .

Patients who receive an add-on medication soon after a heart attack have a significantly better prognosis than those who receive it later, or not all. These are the findings of a new study from researchers at Lund University in Sweden and Imperial College London. Their analysis suggests that treating patients earlier with a combination of statins and the cholesterol-lowering drug ezetimibe could prevent thousands of new heart attacks over a decade.

In the study, researchers including Oxford archaeologists Shadreck Chirikure and Helena Hamerow considered the implications for wealth distribution of variation in house sizes and their storage capacities within settlements, and how land use and farming practices impacted this variation. They found that in regions with land-intensive farming systems, such as those with specialised animal traction for ploughing, high wealth inequality became persistent, with a small number of households controlling productive land.

Once confined to Latin America, Chagas disease has become a global health concern, affecting thousands in Europe as well.
