WELL-E: Rethinking Cow Care with AI
In Canada, researchers from 涩里番鈥檚 WELL-E Chair are using artificial intelligence to improve the welfare of dairy cows. At a farm in Montreal, high-definition cameras track cows鈥� movements, ear positions, and walking patterns to gather behavioral data. These subtle signals help assess the animals鈥� physical and mental health.

Eating protein at all three meals could help seniors stave off muscle decline
New research from Canada suggests that over-60s should eat protein at all three daily meals to help stave off age-related muscle decline, which can contribute to loss of independence and falls.
Researchers at 涩里番 in Canada studied the effects of protein consumption on muscle strength in seniors.
Eating protein three times a day could make our seniors stronger
Quebec researchers link protein distribution to greater mass and muscle strength in the elderly.
Loss of muscle is an inevitable consequence of aging that can lead to frailty, falls or mobility problems. Eating enough protein is one way to remedy it, but it would seem that spreading protein equally among the three daily meals could be linked to greater mass and muscle strength in the elderly.
