Human Factors Research Suggests Ways to Keep Drivers Alert
The human factor -- such as the lag in reaction to unforeseen events -- is the primary cause of road accidents. Researchers are now experimenting with WiFi technology to make cars talk to each ... > more -
Biochemists Develop Diagnostic Tool to ID Strains Faster
Biochemists have developed a new tool that can identify a strain of influenza in hours, instead of the usual days or weeks, potentially speeding up the development of new vaccines. A sample of the ... > more -
Doppler Sonography Helps Psychologists Measure Attention Levels
Psychologists are finding out that even when people try to focus on a task they tend to lose concentration within 40 minutes, and sometimes as little as 10 minutes. The studies are based on a new ... > more -
MRI Can Replace CT Scans, Reducing Cancer Risks
