Rensselaer researchers develop approach that predicts protein separation behavior

Applying math and computers to the drug-discovery process, researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have developed a method to predict protein separation behavior directly from protein structure. This new multi-scale protein modeling approach may reduce the...

Carnegie Mellon researchers discover key deficiencies in brains of people with autism

...("Addition, subtraction and multiplication are all math skills.") The findings confirmed that the regions of the brain associated with visualization were activated when participants with autism read both kinds of sentences, while those regions of the brain were only activated when the control group rea...

On the golf tee or pitcher's mound, brain dooms motion to inconsistency

...he mind plans motion. An analogy might be to doing math problems. Someone who has studied will find it easier to solve a new problem than someone who has not prepared. Given the endemic nature of movement variability, the research doesn't point to any definitive means for combating it. In their paper, t...
