A high school student has developed an artificial intelligence tool that diagnoses autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder with 89 percent accuracy using retinal scans.
Seventeen year old Edward Kang from Bergen County Academies in New Jersey created RetinaMind. Drawing inspiration from research linking eye structure to brain development he built a deep learning convolutional neural network. The system examines subtle variations in the macula and retinal nerve layers that are difficult for humans to detect. By combining multiple models through ensemble learning it reaches high diagnostic precision.
Traditional assessments for these conditions often depend on lengthy behavioral evaluations. RetinaMind offers a faster non invasive alternative. Kang also explored genetic connections such as the ABCA4 gene that may contribute to observed retinal differences.
His project earned second place and a $175,000 award at the 2026 Regeneron Science Talent Search. Experts note that further validation is needed as retinal changes can relate to other neurological issues. Nevertheless the work highlights the potential of artificial intelligence to identify biomarkers and enable earlier intervention.
@politvidchannel PEOPLE WTF?? Do you really want to open this can of worms and set a legal precedent for an American citizen, naturalized or otherwise, to be stripped of their citizenship and deported?! I understand that he's a POS, but please consider the repercussions of doing this!
@CWMadel I am a former Republican voter. I was raised in a conservative family, but I never voted for Trump. I no longer recognize the Republican party. They've become filled with money idolaters, fraudsters, and are willing to cover up sex traffickers. That's not who we are!
"Trump has issued over 2,000 pardons and commutations this year, letting a string of drug dealers, corrupt politicians, and MAGA-friendly businessmen off the hook in a gross abuse of the Constitution."

@core_bell Thank you! It's true that most of them don't want to be deployed by this administration into their own nation. They don't really have the luxury of defying direct orders to just patrol around federal parks and buildings, because THAT is NOT illegal.
@3rdTrythecharm@Willow_of_the_D@SenatorSlotkin What part of "illegal orders" do you not understand? They never called any of the orders currently given "illegal" but did remind military members that they have a DUTY to the US Constitution. The jags in my family know that this is all Trump's use of stochastic terrorism.
If you care anything about the Epstein Case and what files *should be* released by this administration, give this interview a watch, or read the transcript at the very least! I don't think they will actually provide the 40+ victim FBI interviews.

@TaylorIndiana@JoshEakle@DHSgov This is absolutely when you get a picture of the tag and report them to the police, stating that you were threatened at gunpoint just for walking by and recording. Threats of harm with a deadly weapon are still illegal in some states.
ICE agents just snatched a Journalist & were Speeding away when they hit a woman’s vehicle that was going to work & doing nothing wrong! They almost left the scene after slamming into her,but then snatched her out of her car at gunpoint and took her with them! 🤬
Would think Fox News would be interested in a story about a US military veteran getting imprisoned for 3 days by the government but doesn’t seem like it @BretBaier@seanhannity
@mjohnston09@Florenc06081005@OSUDOC63@RepJeffries Incorrect. Three senators from the Democratic caucus voted with Republicans on previous votes: John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, Nevada's Catherine Cortez Masto, & Angus King of Maine.
Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky voted with Democrats to oppose. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, did not vote.
