Imperial College London and tech giant AMD are joining forces to accelerate scientific breakthroughs using artificial intelligence. The collaboration aims to harness AI's power to solve complex research challenges while developing sovereign AI capabilities.
AMD and Imperial College London are joining forces to tackle humanity's biggest challenges using artificial intelligence and supercomputing. The collaboration aims to accelerate breakthroughs in healthcare, climate science, and engineering while training the next generation of AI talent.
Lisa Su, who transformed AMD from struggling to thriving, returned to MIT to share the career advice that changed everything: chase the hardest challenges you can find. The semiconductor pioneer told 2026 graduates that tough problems reveal what you're truly capable of.
Researchers at University of Rochester Medicine received NIH funding to develop a breakthrough treatment that could stop macular degeneration before it steals vision from millions of older adults. The new therapy targets a protein that drives the disease at its earliest stages.
Scientists developed a gene therapy that could reduce painful monthly eye injections for macular degeneration patients down to just once or twice a year. The breakthrough offers hope to nearly 20 million Americans battling the leading cause of vision loss in older adults.
A Valve engineer just solved a frustrating bug that prevented old Apple iMacs from running modern Linux graphics drivers, breathing new life into machines nearly a decade old. The fix means better gaming and performance for owners who refused to give up on their trusty computers.
A wireless retinal implant smaller than a grain of rice is restoring vision to people blinded by macular degeneration, with over 80% of trial participants now able to read letters and words after years in darkness. The breakthrough offers hope to 5 million people worldwide living with advanced AMD.
A cheap, widely available diabetes medication could save millions from the most common cause of blindness in older adults. Researchers found metformin reduces age-related macular degeneration progression by more than a third.
A common diabetes medication may protect aging eyes from one of the leading causes of blindness. People over 55 taking metformin were significantly less likely to develop macular degeneration over five years.
Scientists in Finland developed a gentle heat treatment that activates the eye's natural repair systems before dry macular degeneration causes vision loss. Human trials start this spring for a condition affecting 20 million Americans over 40.
A single injection of experimental drug Axpaxli kept vision stable for up to a year in patients with age-related blindness, potentially reducing treatment burden. The Phase 3 trial showed significantly better durability than the current standard treatment.
Personal computers are getting a major AI upgrade that could put a supercomputer on every desk. Nvidia's new chip will power laptops and desktops from Dell, HP, Lenovo, and Microsoft later this year.
Scientists in Finland developed a gentle heat treatment that helps aging eyes repair themselves before dry macular degeneration causes vision loss. Human trials begin this spring for a condition affecting 20 million Americans.
Young entrepreneurs across the UAE have one final chance to submit their startup ideas to Red Bull Basement 2026, with submissions closing April 14th. The competition brings students and first-time founders together to solve real-world problems through technology and creativity.
Over 3,000 young Nigerian innovators submitted tech solutions to tackle everything from education access to healthcare, with five finalists now competing for a chance to represent their country on the global stage. The Red Bull Basement program is fueling Africa's next generation of problem solvers.
Scientists at Cambridge University are using satellites and AI to map hedgehog habitats across Britain, helping reverse a dramatic 75% population decline in rural areas since 2000. The technology can spot individual hedgerows from space and predict hidden wildlife havens to guide conservation efforts.
Millions face vision loss from age-related macular degeneration, but simple lifestyle changes can help delay or prevent the condition. An NYU ophthalmologist shares science-backed steps anyone can take today.
Scientists could discover breakthroughs 100 times faster thanks to AI systems that run experiments from start to finish. The Genesis Mission is combining America's brightest minds with cutting-edge technology to revolutionize research.
OpenAI just launched a coding assistant that writes code 15 times faster than before, giving developers a tool that keeps up with the speed of their ideas. The breakthrough comes from partnering with chip maker Cerebras instead of relying solely on industry giant Nvidia.
Saudi Arabia just announced a $100 billion investment in artificial intelligence infrastructure, one of the largest single-nation AI commitments in history. The bold move aims to transform the Kingdom's economy beyond oil while building cutting-edge tech for 400 million Arabic speakers worldwide.
