Decoding high energy physics with AI and machine learning

June 13, 2025

In the world of particle physics, where scientists unravel the mysteries of the universe, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are making waves with how they're increasing understanding of the most fundamental particles. Central to this exploration are parton distribution functions (PDFs). These complex mathematical models are crucial for predicting outcomes of high energy physics experiments that test the Standard Model of particle physics.

Smart sensors and smarter health: How AI and wearables are reimagining preventive health care

June 10, 2025

At the University of Arizona Health Sciences, researchers are using artificial intelligence and wearable sensors to revolutionize health care. Dr. Shravan Aras is leading efforts to turn devices like smart rings into tools that can predict health events such as the onset of labor well before symptoms appear. In one study, an AI model accurately forecasted labor up to a week in advance using minute-by-minute temperature data. In another, walking through a natural environment significantly reduced stress levels compared to urban settings. These innovations highlight the University of Arizona’s commitment to proactive, technology-driven health solutions.
