AI tool needs more diverse skin types in datasets
A dermatology algorithm powered by artificial intelligence (AI) that can identify a range of skin conditions doesn't work effectively on black skin, according to researchers in Uganda and Sweden. The study highlights the potential risks of AI-based healthcare and the need to ensure diversity in datasets used to train algorithms.

MRI reveals molecular composition of the brain
Researchers from Israel have developed a model that compares the water content of the brain with measures of physical properties obtained from MRI scans to calculate the molecular composition of lipids in the brain. The technique may help detect changes in the biological makeup of the brain over time and identify key changes associated with diseases like Alzheimer's.
