Carnival of Nuclear Energy 233

1. Atomic Insights – Neural network analysis “unequivocally” reveals threshold dose response in atomic bomb victims Radiation doses below about 100 – 200 mSv suppress cancer. That bold, conventional wisdom-challenging statement is supported by an incredibly important paper titled Cancer risk at low doses of ionizing radiation: artificial neural networks inference from atomic bomb survivors …

Progress towards a medical device to help the paralyzed speak and multisensory mind-reading devices

Researchers have eavesdropped on the internal monologue in our brains for the first time. The achievement is a step towards helping people who cannot physically speak communicate with the outside world. Pasley and his colleagues recorded brain activity in people who already had electrodes implanted in their brain to treat epilepsy, while they listened to …
