New cellular model for rare and deadly melanomas enables study of immunotherapy resistance

New cellular model for rare and deadly melanomas enables study of immunotherapy resistance

A research team at the University of Turku in Finland has developed a reliable laboratory model to study BAP1-deficient melanomas, which are a rare type of melanoma that evade the immune system once they have metastasized and are universally resistant to current state-of-the-art immunotherapies. The tool could change how therapies are developed for aggressive melanomas…

Age bias discovered in AI

Age bias discovered in AI

Do responses generated by artificial intelligence systems such as ChatGPT reflect social prejudice? A KAIST research team has quantitatively analyzed and identified age-related stereotypes embedded in the responses of generative artificial intelligence. The study sheds light on the potential impact of hidden AI biases on social perceptions and suggests directions for the development of more…
