Artificial intelligence-based solutions play an increasingly important role in the analysis of medical images. These systems may support clinical decision making and biomedical research as well.  Quality control of the obtained images is of paramount importance for both scientific research and clinical applications. Automating the quality control of MRI scans can [...]

Earlier the researchers emphasized that organic molecules and life could be formed on the Earth under special circumstances several milliard years ago. There was not any evidence that life similar to the Earth’ type could exist on other planets. This opinion started to change when the Tissint meteorite (formed hundreds [...]
