Exploring New Frontiers in Educational Research and Generative AI
With recent developments in generative AI, five faculty from the Colleges of Education and Natural Science presented a series of flash talks that explore ways AI can enhance learning environments and education research.
MSU Researchers Discover Honeybees Can Detect Lung Cancer
Michigan State University researchers have discovered that honeybees can detect biomarkers or chemical concentrations associated with lung cancer in human breath. The researchers have also shown that the honeybees can distinguish between different lung cancer cell types using only the ‘smell’ of the cell cultures. These findings could be used as a model for developing new tests to diagnose lung cancer early.
