SUTD researchers used mobile phone GPS traces, street view imagery, and open-source spatial data to show that pedestrian route choices in a rapidly developing city are shaped far more by street conditions and context than by distance alone.

A new artificial intelligence framework developed at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering aims to alert water managers to E. coli contamination risk before anyone falls sick.

Food noise, defined as persistent, intrusive thoughts about food that are disruptive to daily life and make healthy behaviors difficult, has gained attention with the introduction of GLP-1 receptor agonists (RAs) for the treatment of obesity. Based on anecdotal reports, GLP-1 RAs may produce significant changes in food noise. There is no empirical evidence, however, testing if GLP-1 RAs reduce food noise more than behavioral treatments alone. This study examined short-term changes in food noise in a digital behavioral weight management program with and without GLP-1 RAs.

A new method could enable physicists to spot signs of dark matter in gravitational waves that are detected on Earth. This could occur if two colliding black holes spiral through a dense region of dark matter and merge, leaving an imprint in gravitational waves that are rippling across space and time.
