2023-05-05
(Press-News.org) QIC-DVP, an entity of Qatar Insurance Group, the leading insurance provider in the Qatar and MENA region, has launched E-Motion with Deep Longevity. It will enable the populace to measure their customers' psychological age, improve mental health, and increase longevity from the comfort of their home.  

The assessment-based and AI-powered digital application has been developed with Deep Longevity's Psychological Age . The technology aims to reinforce mental resilience and wellbeing.  

Psychological age, calculated using a proprietary questionnaire, refers to the mental state most typical for people of a certain age group. This application, E-Motion, calibrates the psychological profile of an individual and signals their maturity, drive, ability to form relationships and exercise control over their own daily lives. The best part is the easy accessibility from the comfort of your home using a smartphone or computer. 

Deep Longevity is an Aging Clock company having a portfolio of patented, AI-based aging clocks. We predict biological & psychological age and provide recommendations for better health using a variety of data types like blood reports, psychological surveys, microbiomic reports etc. to help extend healthspan and lifespan. 

“The Mind Age clock is a powerful measure of mental health and wellbeing." Deepankar Nayak, CEO of Deep Longevity informs, “Our research has shown that mental health can directly affect physical health. Poor mental health is worse than smoking. Our AI engine offers tailored recommendations to improve resilience that’ll help people live longer and healthier" 

E-Motion: A new take on psychological well-being 

Access the newly launched E-motion app online. As you launch the assessment, it presents you with a series of  questions. You're then instantly given the results of your assessment.  

 

You can  choose to answer more questions for a complete psychological profile and better analysis of your psychological age. It will give you much deeper and more accurate results. -Motion gives you a good idea of where your mental health stands right now and where it's headed. 

In the meantime, QIC-DVP and Deep Longevity continue to work on smart and breakthrough technologies that can reshape the industry and ecosystem surrounding human life. Keep your eyes open for more announcements of similar nature.

Researchers create a tool for accurately simulating complex systems

Researchers create a tool for accurately simulating complex systems
2023-05-05
Researchers often use simulations when designing new algorithms, since testing ideas in the real world can be both costly and risky. But since it’s impossible to capture every detail of a complex system in a simulation, they typically collect a small amount of real data that they replay while simulating the components they want to study. Known as trace-driven simulation (the small pieces of real data are called traces), this method sometimes results in biased outcomes. This means researchers might unknowingly choose an algorithm that is not the best one they evaluated, and which will perform worse on real data than the simulation predicted that it should.  MIT researchers ...

How online art viewing can impact our well-being

How online art viewing can impact our well-being
2023-05-05
Art can have a positive effect on our mood. But does this also work when we look at paintings on a screen? An international research team involving the University of Vienna, the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics in Nijmegen and the Max Planck Institute for Empirical Aesthetics (MPIEA) in Frankfurt am Main decided to investigate this question. The study was funded by the EU Horizon ART*IS Project. The results have now been published as an open access article in the journal Computers in Human Behavior. 240 study participants viewed an interactive Monet Water ...

Precision mass measurements of nuclei reveal neutron star properties

Precision mass measurements of nuclei reveal neutron star properties
2023-05-05
Researchers at the Institute of Modern Physics (IMP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and their collaborators recently measured the masses of several key nuclei with high-precision by employing a state-of-the-art storage-ring mass spectrometry technique. Using the new mass data, they investigated X-ray bursts on the surface of a neutron star, thus deepening the understanding of neutron star properties. The study was published in Nature Physics.  Neutron stars are considered to be the densest objects besides black holes. Type-I X-ray bursts, among the brightest stellar ...

Tuning brain cells with light

2023-05-05
An international research team, comprising scientists from DZNE, University Hospital Bonn, the Netherlands, and the US has been awarded a US$ 1.3 million grant by the “Human Frontier Science Program” to investigate brain immune cells and manipulate them via light irradiation. This will involve using gene transcripts (mRNAs) as molecular mediators. From these laboratory studies, the scientists aim to gain new insights into how these cells change their shape in response to hazards and the role they play in neurodegenerative ...

Secret behind Amazonian 'dark earth' could help speed up forest restoration across the globe

Secret behind Amazonian dark earth could help speed up forest restoration across the globe
2023-05-05
Between approximately 450 BCE and 950 CE, millions of Amerindian people living in today’s Amazonia transformed the originally poor soil through various processes. Over many human generations, soils were enriched with charcoal from their low-intensity fires for cooking and burning refuse, animal bones, broken pottery, compost, and manure. The result is Amazonian dark earth (ADE) or terra preta, exceptionally fertile because rich in nutrients and stable organic matter derived from charcoal, which gives it its black color. Now, scientists from Brazil show that ADE could be a ‘secret weapon’ to boost reforestation – not only in the Amazon, where 18% or ...

Altruism can make job seekers afraid to negotiate salary

2023-05-05
AUSTIN, Texas — Job seekers looking to land a role with an altruistic organization may feel too guilty to ask for higher pay, according to a new study from the McCombs School of Business at The University of Texas at Austin. Both for-profit and nonprofit organizations increasingly employ what has been termed “social impact framing” that emphasizes that their work has welfare benefits for society. Although companies might have entirely noble intentions when using social impact framing, a recent study by Texas McCombs Assistant Professor of Management ...

How diet quality affects the gut microbiota to promote health

How diet quality affects the gut microbiota to promote health
2023-05-05
URBANA, Ill. – We know that eating a healthy diet affects body weight, cholesterol levels, and heart health. A new study from the University of Illinois focuses on another component: the role of diet in supporting a healthy gastrointestinal microbiota. The researchers conclude that following the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) promotes a gut microbiota composition that may support overall health. “Currently, there is no definition of a ‘healthy’ microbiome. Understanding how diet may influence the structure of the gut microbiota is important so we can make recommendations on dietary approaches,” says ...
