"Self-Taught Machine Learning Models Identify Molecular Properties"

Biomedical engineers at Duke University have developed a new method called yoked learning to improve the effectiveness of machine learning models in identifying molecular properties for potential therapeutics or materials. By pairing a teaching machine learning model with a student model, the technique, known as YoDeL, outperformed or matched the accuracy of active deep learning systems while being much faster. This approach could enhance the efficacy of deep neural networks and help discover new drugs and drug delivery solutions.

"Revolutionizing Classroom Furniture for Gen Z Learning: Pearson Lloyd's Innovative Approach"

Industrial design studio Pearson Lloyd has collaborated with British brand Senator to create CoLab, a collection of furniture designed specifically for next-generation learning in classrooms. The furniture aims to support active and social learning, moving away from traditional lecture-style setups. The designs incorporate various seating and surface options to encourage non-hierarchical interaction and collaboration among students. The furniture also includes integrated power outlets and modular components for easy repair or replacement. Pearson Lloyd plans to test the furniture at Nottingham Trent University and believes it has the potential to influence future workspace design.
