UC Berkeley research team develops new way to detect early signs of Alzheimer's disease

A research team at UC Berkeley has developed a new way to detect early signs of Alzheimer's disease. The method, which is described in a paper published in the journal Nature Medicine, uses a combination of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and machine learning to identify brain changes that are associated with the disease.

UC Berkeley scientists have discovered a new type of black hole. The black hole, which is described in a paper published in the journal Physical Review Letters, is the first to be found with a mass that is less than 5% of the mass of the sun.

UC Berkeley physicists develop new theory of quantum gravity

UC Berkeley physicists have developed a new theory of quantum gravity. The theory, which is described in a paper published in the journal Physical Review D, is the first to be able to explain the behavior of black holes without using the concept of a singularity.
