Australian scientists make breakthrough in Alzheimer's research
Canberra, Feb. 1 -- A team from Australia's national science agency has used artificial intelligence to make a breakthrough in Alzheimer's disease research.
The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) said on Wednesday that, in partnership with the Queensland University of Technology, it has developed a world-first benchmark for measuring brain atrophy in neurodegenerative diseases.
