Radiologist Domenico Mastrodicasa, based at the University of Washington School of Medicine, uses ChatGPT, an AI tool powered by the GPT-4 language model, as a sounding board for writing research papers, finding it accelerates manuscript preparation. While many scientists remain in the minority in using large language models (LLMs), generative AI tools like ChatGPT are anticipated to become regular aids for writing manuscripts, grant applications, and peer-review reports. However, concerns include the potential for inaccuracies, poor-quality papers, and AI-assisted fakes. Publishers are exploring ways to address these issues, such as bans or transparency policies. Generative AI may benefit non-native English speakers and enhance equity in science. Ethical concerns involve AI’s automated plagiarism and information sourcing methods. Some news organizations have blocked AI tools. LLMs might change research dissemination, allowing interactive and tailored access to research findings.

Immune Networks in Tumors found to Prime Responses to Personalized Immunotherapy
The battle against cancer has witnessed a revolutionary shift with the emergence of personalized immunotherapy. Adoptive T cell therapy (ACT), a promising approach, empowers a patient’s own immune system to fight cancer. However, individual responses vary significantly. A groundbreaking study published in Science Immunology sheds light on a crucial factor influencing success: preexisting immune networks […]
The Mechanics Behind How the Lawnmower Works
Researchers have taken a significant step towards bio-inspired nanotechnology with the development of the “Lawnmower“, an autonomous protein-based motor that utilizes a clever “burnt-bridge” principle for self-propulsion. How the Lawnmower Works: The Lawnmower is comprised of a spherical protein hub decorated with protease enzymes. These enzymes act like tiny scissors, cutting through a “peptide lawn” […]
