The TRIPOD+AI update provides harmonised guidance for reporting prediction model studies, superseding TRIPOD 2015, to accommodate AI and machine learning methods. The new 27-item checklist aims for complete, accurate, and transparent reporting, facilitating study appraisal and model implementation.

MIT researchers observed 'edge states' in ultracold atoms, mimicking electrons' frictionless flow along material edges, potentially enabling super-efficient electronic circuits and quantum computers.

Algae, tiny photosynthetic eukaryotes, could be key to sustainable solutions for agriculture, pollution, and conservation. Researchers explore algal abilities like nitrogen fixation, lipid production, and nutrient recovery from wastewater, aiming to engineer algae for biofuels, food, bioplastics, and more. Despite initial hype, algal biofuels proved impractical due to high nutrient demands and energy costs. However, algae's unique biological capabilities offer potential in food production, crop improvement, water treatment, and sustainable product creation, addressing humanity's environmental impact.

Pitt's BioForge project aims to combine Pittsburgh's industrial history with cutting-edge innovation, focusing on precision biological medicines. The $250 million facility, set to be completed by summer 2026, will create around 830 jobs and is part of Hazelwood Green's redevelopment, which includes residential housing and other tech centers.

Developed an AI model to predict long-course sepsis patients for clinical trial enrollment, enhancing patient homogeneity. Utilized conformal prediction to assess model output uncertainty, aiding informed decision-making. Model performance validated internally and externally, with a web-based calculator aiding clinician understanding and feedback, potentially improving clinical decision-making.
