Covid: PM insists July unlocking will go ahead in England But scientists warn a rise in deaths could derail the plan, and some MPs fear a further delay. [BBC News UK]  Tuning the energy gap: A novel approach for organic semiconductors What is already established for inorganic semiconductors stays a challenge for their organic counterparts: Tuning the energy gap by blending different semiconducting molecules to optimize device performance. Now, scientists demonstrated how to reach this (...) [Science daily] Cloud computing expands brain sciences People often think about human behavior in terms of what is happening in the present -- reading a newspaper, driving a car, or catching a football. But other dimensions of behavior extend over weeks, months, and years. [Science daily] Wharton Professor Joins Forces with Former BuzzFeed and CBS Execs to Unveil Jumpcut: The First Data-Driven Studio Matching Hollywood and Streaming Companies With Fresh Voices Today, Jumpcut launches out of stealth as the first data science-driven studio reimagining the way films and TV shows are developed, to elevate fresh voices and stories. The company, which comprises a Wharton Professor, and former BuzzFeed and CBS executives and is backed by venture capital (...) [WebWire Computer software] Machine learning speeds up simulations in material science Research, development, and production of novel materials depend heavily on the availability of fast and at the same time accurate simulation methods. Machine learning, in which artificial intelligence autonomously acquires and applies new knowledge, will soon enable researchers to develop (...) [Science daily] Early endeavors on the path to reliable quantum machine learning The future quantum computers should be capable of super-fast and reliable computation. Today, this is still a major challenge. Now, computer scientists conduct an early exploration for reliable quantum machine learning. [Science daily] A quantum step to a heat switch with no moving parts Researchers have discovered a new electronic property at the frontier between the thermal and quantum sciences in a specially engineered metal alloy -- and in the process identified a promising material for future devices that could turn heat on and off with the application of a magnetic (...) [Science daily] Applying mathematics takes 'friendship paradox' beyond averages In network science, the famous 'friendship paradox' describes why your friends are (on average) more popular, richer, and more attractive than you are. But a slightly more nuanced picture emerges when we apply mathematics to real-world (...) [Science daily] New £210 million centre to provide industry and research access to AI and quantum computing The new Hartree National Centre for Digital Innovation (HNCDI ) will bring together world-leading expertise with innovative AI and quantum computing technology, to benefit industry and public sector. The joint centre with UK's Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) and IBM, a leading (...) [WebWire Computer software] New £210 million centre to provide industry and research access to AI and quantum computing The new Hartree National Centre for Digital Innovation (HNCDI ) will bring together world-leading expertise with innovative AI and quantum computing technology, to benefit industry and public sector. The joint centre with UK's Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) and IBM, a leading (...) [WebWire Internet technology] Aviva and Darwin announce five-year strategic partnership - • An autonomous shuttle controlled by 5G and satellite connectivity will transport members of the public around the Harwell Science and Innovation Campus in Oxfordshire, with a second shuttle to be introduced later - • The electric shuttles, which do not have a steering wheel, will operate 24/7 (...) [WebWire Mobile communications] Let's talk about the elephant in the data Many data scientists try to create models that can 'fit an elephant,' referring to a complex set of data points. While the role of strong prior knowledge can work well in some situations, the complete absence of prior assumptions will work adequately in others. One expert discusses a (...) [Science daily] Scientists found a new and promising qubit at a place where there is nothing In the world of quantum mechanics, researchers can even make empty space, the lack of something, do their bidding. Scientists have now created a new setup to control the absence of electrons in a solid material. They want to use these holes as a basis for a quantum (...) [Science daily] Tabita Rezaire unveils healing vision for the world with WePresent and Serpentine's environmental Groundwork series WePresent, the editorial platform of WeTransfer, presents AMAKABA : a vision for collective healing by artist Tabita Rezaire. From atop the Amazonian rainforest of French Guiana, Rezaire shares her vision to build a center for the arts and science of the earth, body and sky. She offers a (...) [WebWire Internet technology] Shadow figment technology foils cyberattacks Scientists have created a cybersecurity technology called Shadow Figment that is designed to lure hackers into an artificial world, then stop them from doing damage by feeding them illusory tidbits of success. The aim is to sequester bad actors by captivating them with an attractive -- but (...) [Science daily]
