Current equations for estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) that use serum creatinine or cystatin C incorporate age, sex, and race to estimate measured GFR. However, race in eGFR equations is a ...

This new AI acts like a digital scientist, turning messy data into simple rules that explain how the world really works.

A research team at Duke University has developed a new AI framework that can uncover simple, understandable rules that govern ...

Equations are the bedrock of science, expressing how numbers or physical properties relate at a fundamental level. Without equations, most of our technology would never have been invented. We may have ...

The unknown values in an equation could be the individual costs of a smoothie and a banana when the combined cost is known. Simultaneous equations can be useful when running a business. Watch the ...

Gravity pulls objects together; the closer they are, the stronger the pull. Energy and mass are equivalent and interchangeable (E=mc²). The universe's expansion speed is linked to a galaxy's distance.

The Navier-Stokes equations describe simple, everyday phenomena, like water flowing from a garden hose, yet they provide a million-dollar mathematical challenge. Physics contains equations that ...
