The map provides users with information about where they've been in relation to someone else who might be infected.\u003C\u002Fspan>\r\n\r\n\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The GeauxTrace app has received an $888,642 grant from the National Institutes of Health. In addition to GeauxTrace, four other virus-related projects have been awarded funding under a joint initiative between NIH and the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD).\u003C\u002Fspan>\r\n\r\n\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The app can be utilized by individuals, but they do not need to register any personal information. Rather, the app generates a random number from their phone as an ID and broadcasts it in the background; making it harder for hackers to access private data.\u003C\u002Fspan>\r\n\r\n\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #15a3bc\">\"My group has been working on Blockchain-related projects for a few years,\" Peng said. \"Our previous work is about how we can use Blockchain to protect data, and I was thinking of using Blockchain, which can highly encrypt user data and prevent it from being hacked. So why not use this technology for a COVID-19 map?\"\u003C\u002Fspan>\r\n\r\n\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003Cspan style=\"color: #15a3bc\">“My app has been tested successfully by more than 100 volunteers. Basically, our research work has been done. The main purpose [in releasing] the app is to mitigate the spread of the virus and help the community.”\u003C\u002Fspan>, Peng said.\u003C\u002Fspan>\r\n\r\n\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Peng explains that the decentralized technique protects an individual's privacy while also making it more difficult for hackers to access private information.\u003C\u002Fspan>\r\n\r\nRead More: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Ftest.yugasa.org\u002Fnews\u002Fai-predicts-oxygen-requirement-for-covid-19-patients-globally-study\u002F\">AI PREDICTS OXYGEN REQUIREMENT FOR COVID-19 PATIENTS GLOBALLY: STUDY\u003C\u002Fa>",{"title":10,"description":13,"image":14},[38,51,63,75],{"id":39,"source":9,"title":40,"slug":41,"url":42,"excerpt":43,"image":44,"author":45,"date":46,"date_formatted":47,"categories":48,"tags":50},37296,"WhatsApp adds a new \"search by date\" function to make navigating chats easier.","whatsapp-adds-a-new-search-by-date-function-to-make-navigating-chats-easier","\u002Fwhatsapp-adds-a-new-search-by-date-function-to-make-navigating-chats-easier","The well-known messaging app WhatsApp is releasing a new feature that will make sifting through conversations easier than before.
