AnatomyCarve: A VR occlusion management technique for medical images based on segment-aware clipping
Visualizing 3D medical images is challenging due to self-occlusion, where anatomical structures of interest can be obscured by surrounding tissues. Existing methods, such as slicing and interactive clipping, are limited in their ability to fully represent internal anatomy in context. In contrast, hand-drawn medical illustrations in anatomy books manage occlusion effectively by selectively removing portions based on tissue type, revealing 3D structures while preserving context.

TIL the sound from clapping is from air jets expelled out rapidly, not from the skin of our palms slapping together. Wild #science

Because it was a US phone , my first cellphone wasn’t in the museum, but my first iPhone was.
A week ago @… and I were exploring the great London Science Museum. Really worth a visit.

Längst ist das englische Clubbing auch in Mainz angekommen.

The Secret History of Trump’s Private Cellphone
“Who’s calling?” the president asks as he answers call after call from numbers he doesn’t know.

This is an interesting article about FFOTUS's cell phone.
Apparently many people know the number. And apparently FFOTUS often picks up and answers.
If I had the number I would publish it so that all of us could carry out our First Amendment right to "right to petition the government for redress of grievances".

CHIME/FRB Discovery of an Unusual Circularly Polarized Long-Period Radio Transient with an Accelerating Spin Period
We report the discovery of CHIME J1634+44, a Long Period Radio Transient (LPT) unique for two aspects: it is the first known LPT to emit fully circularly polarized radio bursts, and it is the first LPT with a significant spin-up. Given that high circular polarization ($>90$\%) has been observed in FRB~20201124A and in some giant pulses of PSR~B1937+21, we discuss the implications of the high circular polarization of CHIME J1634+44 and conclude its emission mechanism is likely to be ``pulsar-lik…
