 E-Mail Peri-implantitis, a condition where tissue and bone around dental implants becomes infected, besets roughly one-quarter of dental implant patients, and currently there's no reliable way to assess how patients will respond to treatment of this condition. To that end, a team led by the University of Michigan School of Dentistry developed a machine learning algorithm, a form of artificial intelligence, to assess an individual patient's risk of regenerative outcomes after surgical treatments of peri-implantitis. The algorithm is called FARDEEP, which stands for Fast and Robust Deconvol...

What happens when a group of longtime friends get together over drinks and — unexpectedly — come up with a business prospect? It’s a story that’s not all that unfamiliar, but how often do those ideas, stirred casually among pals, actually fully materialize? In the case of Scott Miller, Jeff Wang, and Craig Rudder — co-founders of GoodTimesDrinks — an evening of gin and tonics spurred a full-blown business, filling a gap in the ready-to-drink market. “Craig had just got a basil mint plant and proceeded to make Jeff and I a couple of G&Ts.  We absolutely loved how he made them �...

Indigenous artists shine as Taiwan's mainstream embraces its island identity Alicia Chen and Gerry Shih, The Washington Post Feb. 17, 2021 FacebookTwitterEmail TAITUNG, Taiwan - Deep bass kicks and nose flute melodies pulsated from the outdoor stage framed by lush greenery just a few blocks from the Pacific Ocean. Sangpuy Katatepan Mavaliyw stopped singing, then switched to Mandarin. This was an ode to the ancestral land that he revered, he explained - the land on which the crowd of 200 Chinese-speaking Taiwanese now stood. "We have had many colonists who have come here," Sangpuy said, not d...

Digital CRISPR‐assisted assay for rapid detection of SARS‐CoV‐2 The first digital CRISPR/Cas‐assisted assay that can detect SARS‐CoV‐2 in under 30 minutes. Image credit: Testalize.me on Unsplash The discovery of CRISPR enzymes isolated from bacteria has not only transformed our ability to edit the genome and therefore treat a number of genetic disorders, but has also opened the door to enhanced diagnostic testing. Nucleic acid tests detect genetic information such as DNA and RNA, and are often used in the identification of viruses or bacteria. They are currently being widely use...
