house › Sciences › health › 50 years after the first MRI, scientists are getting a clearer picture of the brain The scan in mice has a resolution up to 64 million times better than brain MRI techniques currently used. Carolina Fiorati 2 hours ago In 1973, scientists performed the first magnetic resonance imaging in history. Fifty years have passed, and now a team of researchers from the Center for In Vivo Microscopy at Duke University, in the United States, has achieved the clearest picture of the brain. Test performed with an accuracy of up to 64 million times better…

Scientists have been able to produce MRI images that are clearer than ever before. The results have been published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences In the last month of March. This unprecedented level of detail could represent a breakthrough in the visualization of certain conditions affecting the brain.Scientists report that the new images are 64 million times sharper than clinical MRIs. It turns out that, just as a 2D image can be reduced to pixels, an MRI can be reduced to 3D pixels. With the new technology, each voxel is 64 million times smaller than…

Today, WhatsApp is one of the most popular apps among Brazilians. Among its functions is the ability to block other users. But how do you know if this feature has been used against you? When this happens, the blocked person does not receive any kind of signal or notification. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to some details to see if there is a blockage. Image: reproductionSo here are four tips to find out if someone blocked you. 1. Messages are not being delivered When a number is blocked, it is impossible to send any messages. Therefore, if you…

Learn about the largest rocket in history, created by Elon Musk’s company The new takeoff should take place around 10:28 AM (Brasilia time). The rocket will launch from Starbase, SpaceX’s space base in Boca Chica, Texas, according to AFP. Takeoff was suspended on Monday minutes ahead of schedule, due to a pressure issue in the thrust stage, according to company information. “We expect at least 48 hours before we can attempt this test flight again,” a SpaceX employee said in a live video broadcast by the company. “It’s a very risky journey,” Musk said Sunday, during a Twitter’s Spaces event.…

Aurora lovers and viewers were in for a surprise when they watched the green lights dance across the Alaskan sky: A pale blue, galaxy-like spiral appeared in the middle of the aurora borealis for a few minutes early Saturday. The reason was nothing exceptional. Not a portal or alien invasion. It was excess fuel released from a SpaceX rocket that launched from California about three hours before the helix appeared in the sky.

The new image is the result of observations with the James Webb Supertelescope. – Image: NASA/ESA/CSA/DISCLOSURE In the image of Arp 220, the meeting of the two spiral galaxies is called a confluence. The new image is the result of observations with the James Webb Supertelescope. – Image: NASA/ESA/CSA/DISCLOSURE Scientists classify it as a super-bright galaxy. Arp 220 is about 250 million light-years from Earth, but it emits 300 times more light than our entire Milky Way galaxy.. For comparison, according…

London Stress at work can manifest itself in many ways, and one of those ways is the way people type or move a computer mouse, which can be more effective than a heart rate test for chronic stress. That’s what researchers at the Zurich Federal Institute of Technology (ETHZ) claim in a study released this week. Based on new data about stress and on a machine learning engine, they developed a model that is able to identify stress early where it is most common: the office, whether face-to-face or virtual. “How we type on the keyboard and move the mouse…

One of the biggest mascots in gaming is the crazy fox Crash Bandicoot. The character originally appeared for the PlayStation, in 1996, in the game that bears his name in the title “Crash Bandicoot”. The character was very successful in its launch, it has frantic and very interesting gameplay with an eloquent and completely insane hero.

Therefore, they are releasing promotional materials for their latest release, ‘Crash Team Rumble’. ‘Crash Team Rumble’ Details…

WhatsApp, the messaging app available for Android phones and iPhone (iOS), will get a series of new tools to improve user experience. Of the six new features, some have already been released for the entire base, while others are still being tested. The ability to pay for purchases directly in the app via credit and debit cards and device verification are examples of this. There are also WABetaInfo resources that have not been released, but are highly anticipated – such as Expired Collections. WhatsApp: a new function that prevents your account from being stolen; See newsIn the following lines, see…

Scientists are a little concerned that the James Webb Space Telescope continues to find galaxies that “shouldn’t exist.” Recent observations of some distant galaxies by NASA’s powerful James Webb Space Telescope have raised questions about our current understanding of the universe. These galaxies appear more mature and massive than expected, given their location in the universe. This startling discovery prompted scientists to re-examine some fundamental aspects of cosmology and galaxy formation. New research, led by Mike Boylan-Kolchin of the University of Texas at Austin, attempts to “test” these galaxies for information about their composition. Boylan-Kolchin’s paper suggests that the observed…
