A new method can quickly diagnose COVID-19 more accurately than existing approaches. The technique is based on how the body expresses genes in response to infections. When a gene is expressed, different segments of the gene create different mRNA isoforms. The mix of those isoforms changes the types of proteins produced, including proteins involved in fighting viruses. By measuring the relative abundance of various isoforms, the new method can confidently identify when the body is mounting an immune response to the…

Whenever someone talks or asks me what’s the best 13-inch laptop, I instinctively think about the Dell XPS 13. It has been the king of premium 13-inch Windows ultrabooks and still remains one of the best in its class. But if you are looking for some variety, there are many options to choose from. One such product is the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i Carbon. The latest 7th-generation model is powered by Intel’s 12th-gen Alder Lake-P processors (Core i5 and Core i7) and features a sharp 13.3-inch 2.5K resolution display with a 16:10…

It’s not often that humans are lucky enough to spot two neutron stars colliding, with the first ever collision observed only a few years ago in 2017. Now scientists have taken a closer look at that neutron star collision and discovered that it created a near-perfect spherical explosion, which has left many of them shocked and scratching their heads. “No one expected the explosion to look like this,” astrophysicist Darach Watson shared in a statement. Watson says that the near-perfect sphere that the neutron…

Very few franchises end in definitive fashion, and that’s truer than ever today when any property is capable of being dusted off and given a legacy sequel. However, it felt for the longest time as though Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade would indeed send the iconic title hero out in a blaze of cinematic glory. The third installment in the original trilogy literally sent the principal cast riding off into the sunset, and there was nary a better conclusion for any long-running film series to bow out on. And yet, there…

The mid-range and budget tablet segment has been steadily gaining steam in the country. In fact, we recently reviewed the Realme Pad X (review), the Xiaomi Pad 5 (review) and the OPPO Pad Air (review), which offer enticing features at wallet-friendly price points.

The new MacBook Air is one of Apple's most important computers since Steve Jobs pulled the original Air out of an envelope. It shows what's possible when Apple builds an ultraportable entirely around its mobile chips, instead of lazily sticking them in old laptop designs, like with the recent 13-inch MacBook Pro. The Air is impressively thin and light, but it also has a bigger and better screen, a great set of speakers and a nifty MagSafe power adapter. And thanks to Apple's M2 chip, it's also far speedier than the last…
