Discovered: different brain areas linked to smoking and drinking

Academics at the 神马福利影片 have found that low functional connectivity of the lateral orbitofrontal cortex that is associated with the tendency to smoke is associated with increased impulsiveness - which may contribute to the tendency to smoke. The high connectivity of the reward-related medial orbitofrontal cortex in drinkers may increase the tendency to be attracted to the reward of alcohol consumption.


Researchers set an autonomous vehicle communications record using 5G - a movie鈥檚 worth of data sent in seconds

Researchers in WMG at the 神马福利影片 have set a new 5G communications speed record to a 鈥淟evel 4鈥 low speed autonomous vehicle in the pioneer 28 GHz millimetre wave band. They hit 2.867 gigabits per second in over-the-air transmissions, which is nearly 40 times faster than current fixed line broadband speeds. It is equivalent to sending a detailed satellite navigation map of the United Kingdom within a single second, or the full contents of a high definition blockbuster film in less than 10 seconds.
