Researchers are creating a new technology to help autonomous vehicles make split-second decisions
Vehicle accidents can happen in the blink of an eye. The time it takes camera systems in autonomous vehicles to process images is critical. Researchers are developing a first-of-its-kind technology that can make split-second assessments. Learn more on NSF's "The Discovery Files."This is an NSF Multimedia Gallery item.

Robowear! These robotic exosuits are made for walkin'.
The way we walk can be determined by our sex, height, age, and muscle strength. But for many, an accident or a health disorder can impact their ability to walk. A team of researchers have developed a wearable, soft robotic "exosuit" that could improve the quality of life for millions with walking ...This is an NSF Multimedia Gallery item.

Human Oncogenic Viruses: Nature, Discovery, and Running Around in Circles
Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series
Annual George Khoury Lecture
Dr. Chang is Distinguished Professor of Pathology in the Cancer Virology Program, University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute. Her laboratory performs basic and applied research on viral oncogenesis with efforts focused in three areas: Merkel cell carcinoma and Merkel cell polyomavirus, the latter of which she discovered; Kaposi ’ s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus, the most common AIDS-associated malignancy; and new pathogen discovery.
Seven viruses collectively comprise an important cause of cancer, particularly in less-developed countries and under conditions...

In a first, brain computer interface helps paralyzed man feel again
Imagine being in an accident that leaves you unable to feel any sensation in your arms and fingers. Now imagine regaining that sensation, a decade later, through a mind-controlled robotic arm that is directly connected to your brain. That is what 28-year-old Nathan Copeland experienced after he ...This is an NSF Multimedia Gallery item. (Source: NSF Multimedia Gallery)

NIH Research Festival: A Celebration of Intramural Science Plenary Session II: Responding to Public Health Emergencies
This plenary session will focus on the many ways that the NIH Intramural Research Program (IRP) has served a crucial role in various public health emergencies. From assessing radiation dangers after the Japanese tsunami and nuclear accident, to developing an Ebola vaccine and treating infected individuals, to tracing the origins of recent food-borne disease outbreaks through genomic analysis, the NIH IRP continues to be among the "first responders" to protect the nation's and the world's health.For more information go to http://researchfestival.nih.gov/2015/plenary_sessions.shtmlAir date: 9/17/2015 10:15:00 AM (Source: Videocast - All Events)
