science magazine article

Both magazines and journals are called periodicals but their purpose, appearance and content vary greatly. A periodical is a general term used to refer to newspapers, magazines and journals because they are produced regularly at fixed intervals (such as daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly, quarterly, or annually). 
This document outlines the differences and features of magazine and journal articles.

Figure 1: AI microscope checking blood samples (AI microscope, n,d.)
  • In APA referencing, all pictures are labelled using the word figure. 
  • Graphs, photographs, illustrations and charts are all examples of figures.
  • Italicise the word figure.
  • Include the in-text citation below the image or table.

Your reference at the end will still look like this:

Paraphrasing
This is where you summarise the ideas in your own words.
​A machine powered by artificial intelligence (AI) is scanning blood tests and taking high-resolution photographs, according to Professor Brian Lovell from the University of Queensland. The machine, which processes 35,000 blood samples daily, can now identify microscopic diseases in samples, automatically emailing the results to a pathologist for confirmation. The AI can now classify patterns and identify diseases in samples, improving the overall diagnostic process (Roberts, 2023).

Your reference at the end will look like this:
Roberts, G. (2023, July 21). Queensland claims 'world first' in medical artificial intelligence with new tech detecting diseases in blood. ABC News. ​https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-07-21/qld-artificial-intelligence-used-to-detect-blood-disease/102593142
Direct Quote
This is where you use the exact words from the article.
This is remarkable technology as "the AI is able to identify microscopic diseases in the blood samples, automatically emailing the result to a pathologist for confirmation" (Roberts, 2023).

If you quote someone directly from an article:
Dr Michael Harrison (as citied in Roberts, 2023) said it has really sped up the process as ​"we used to look at 100 cells to classify [them], now we can look at 1,000 cells, and you get a much better outcome".
