Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Just as birth rates decline in many wealthy and developed nations, dog parenting is remaining steady and even gaining in popularity. Up to half of households in Europe and 66 percent of homes in the United States have at least one dog and these pets are often regarded as a family member or "fur baby." To dig into what this shift says about our society, researchers from Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, Hungary conducted a literature review to analyze the data. They propose that while dogs do not replace children, they can offer a chance to fulfill an innate nurturing drive similar to parenting, but with fewer demands than raising biological children.

At school there was always one pupil who seemed to excel in every subject, from maths to literature and music. Scientists call this phenomenon'general intelligence' or the'g factor' – and for the first time they've found evidence that it exists in dogs too. The researchers in Budapest, Hungary recruited over 100 dogs for various tasks, testing key skills like memory, learning and problem-solving. Rather than just excelling in one area, the smartest dogs tended to score highly across the board, just like a top student at school, they found. While the g factor in humans is linked with better academic and workplace performance in life, gifted dogs may be better able to fend for themselves or assist humans in a crisis. Just like humans, dogs excel at different tasks involving different cognitive skills, regardless of breed, the new study shows.

Adults will adopt the same facial expressions they use when speaking and playing with babies as they do with their pet dogs, a new study has found. Scientists from Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, Hungary, determined humans use the same six overly animated expressions in both scenarios. Studies have previously found there is a similar cross over in the high pitched tone used to speak with pets and babies, too. The study identified six common expressions, ranging from the'special happy' face to the'mock surprise' face and the'fish' face, among the 42 participants. Man's best friend: Scientists in Hungary have cracked the code in speaking to dogs - and believe there are six faces humans pull when communicating with their pets The babies in the study ranged from three months to 17 months old, while the dogs were up to 12 years old and included collies, dachshunds, poodles and mongrels, The Telegraph reported.

The AI-powered medtech solutions company, Brainomix, has been awarded the national tender in Hungary to deploy its AI stroke imaging software across all stroke centers in Hungary as part of the National Institute for Health Development initiative to improve stroke care. Awarded following a competitive process, the 5-year program is funded under the EU4Health programme and is the first time that a single stroke AI imaging platform will be deployed across an entire country. This latest tender will build upon an earlier EU grant that had funded the installation of Brainomix's flagship e-Stroke platform in 10 hospitals in and around the Hungarian city of Pécs. It will enable e-Stroke to be deployed across the remaining 28 stroke centres in Hungary's national healthcare system, with the support of eRAD, who will be serving as a technological partner. The initiative to use AI to improve stroke care and patient outcomes for the benefit of all stroke patients in Hungary was driven by world leading neuroscientist, Prof Dr István Szikora of the National Institute of Mental Health, Neurology and Neurosurgery, (OMIII) in Budapest, which will serve as the national stroke centre with full oversight for the program.
