USC study indicates periodic low-calorie diet could help patients with inflammatory bowel disease: A clinical trial shows reduction of inflammation.
At USC Dornsife’s Spatial Sciences Institute, Andrew Marx uses satellites and data such as crowdsourced mapping to analyze and inform human migration and refugee policy.
USC Viterbi researchers have developed 3D-printed rubber materials that can fix themselves, a potential game changer for industries like shoes, tires, soft robotics and even electronics.
The tool uses a camera and computer vision to record patterns in children’s eye movements and compares them to other children’s patterns.
Bistra Dilkina and her graduate students help to address environmental needs, from predicting where poachers are likely to strike to designing wildlife reserves and preventing the spread of invasive species.
Undersea carbon reservoirs have caused global warming before — and it could happen again, according to research by an international team of scientists led by USC.
USC experts agree: Online dating and shopping have many of us wondering if a day dedicated to romantic love might be passé.
Iridium has been generating light and color for screens on smartphones and TVs, but it’s the rarest metal on Earth. USC scientists found a way to make copper work.
