Navigating the Pharmaverse: How Medical Affairs Can Map the Omnichannel Galaxy

The pharmaceutical industry is no longer a solitary planet orbiting around academic conferences and clinician consultations. Instead, it’s an expanding universe buzzing with information, where healthcare professionals (HCPs) and patients navigate a constellation of digital and traditional chan...

The first dark, primordial galaxy has gas, but no stars

Imagine, if you dare, what the Universe was like before any stars had ever formed within it. All of the normal, atom-based matter within it was pristine, but the regions that had slightly more matter than normal would start attracting everything in their vicinity. Over time, they would build up larg...

Galaxy clusters are graveyards for Milky Way-like galaxies

The low-mass, dusty, irregular galaxy NGC 3077 is actively forming new stars, has a very blue center, and has a hydrogen gas bridge connecting it to the nearby, more massive M81. As one of 34 galaxies in the M81 Group, it’s an example of the most common type of galaxy in the Universe: much sma...

What is at the Centre of Our Galaxy? Tussle of the black hole with its sibling!

Recently, this image gained widespread popularity within moments of its release by the Event Horizon Telescope group (EHT group) on May 12, 2022. Depicting the center of our galaxy, the Milky Way, the EHT group propelled it to fame with the headline “Astronomers Reveal First Image of the Black...

Galaxy Formation

In the early stages of the formation of the universe, matter filled the raw universe homogeneously. But the distribution of matter was not exactly perfectly uniform. Some regions were negligibly denser than others. The relatively large gravitation in these relatively dense regions helped to overcome...

Applying a Deep Learning Approach to Galaxy Classification with Galaxy Zoo

Using classical Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to classify the galaxies of the Galaxy Zoo dataset is by no means a novel idea and has been investigated repeatedly and with higher frequency with the rise of Machine Learning literacy and spread across Data Science domains. However, combining m...
