A research team has developed an approach to accelerate herbicide screening by integrating spectral image analysis with machine learning.

A new study in ECNU Review of Education examines CHATTING, a ChatGPT‑assisted writing system designed for students with dyslexia. Conducted with 101 Hong Kong secondary students, the research found the tool increased motivation and engagement, particularly among learners with dyslexia. However, writing quality declined and plagiarism rates rose. The authors recommend teacher‑guided AI integration to maximize benefits while addressing risks such as over‑reliance, weak question‑asking skills, and ethical concerns in AI‑supported learning.

Older patients susceptible to chronic neurological conditions are willing to use wearables for remote monitoring to support their health and well-being at home. Conducted at the University of Eastern Finland, a recent study found that older patients are open to using wearable smart rings and view themselves as active contributors to their own care. The possibility for caregivers to access patient data collected was seen as reassuring and motivating, providing a sense of safety and guidance.
