SOUTH KINGSTOWN – An international collaboration led by University of Rhode Island researchers will seek to develop wearable technology to help stroke survivors recover motor and cognitive abilities. The project, which recently won a three-year, $500,000 grant from the National Science Foundation, is led by URI biomedical engineering and health sciences faculty, who will work […]| Providence Business News
The current policies give unique license to private citizens—academic scientists in universities—to allocate and use public funds as they see fit, so long as it contributes to the interests of science as defined by scientists. This is a license to commercially exploit public resources for private gain. It is imperative to forestall the type of elite control of science which is now taking place on the nation's campuses. To do this effectively, we must examine the history of the postwar pat...| Science for the People Archives
The US House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology has unanimously approved a bipartisan bill to reauthorize the National Quantum Initiative, aimed at enhancing quantum research. The bill, co-sponsored by Committee Chairman Frank Lucas and ranking member Zoe Lofgren, is intended to maintain US competitiveness against China and Russia in quantum systems. The bill also includes amendments to consider the use of AI and machine learning in quantum science and technology. The National Scienc...| Quantum Zeitgeist
