In this study, the authors surveyed a number of students in Singapore to determine how their experiences changed after the implementation of home-based learning during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) affects nearly 200,000 people worldwide and there is currently no cure. The purpose of the study was to determine if Helianthus annuus seeds helped reduce nerve degeneration and increase locomotion using Drosophila melanogaster as the model organism. Through this experiment, we found a general trend suggesting that H. annuus helped increase the mobility of the D. melanogaster suggesting it could be a viable supplement for patients with ALS.

Cellular senescence plays a key role in aging cells and is attributed to a number of disease and pathology. These authors find that genetic editing of both RPS6KB1 and PPARGC1A revitalizes a human skin fibroblast cell line.

This study examines the effects of tumeric, and alph-lipoic acid on segment regeneration and cardiovascular pulse rate, using the California blackworm. Results can ultimately demonstrate potential natural compounds for tissue repair and their effect on physiological activity.

This project investigated whether previously identified genetic risk factors in non-Korean populations were associated with high gastric cancer incidence rates in Koreans.

The explored the potential of an epitope-based vaccine for Rocio virus using computational methods and M13 bacteriophage technology. Researchers identified 30 promising B- and T-cell epitopes and designed vaccine candidates using both phage display and E. coli expression systems.

This study explored using iron oxide nanoparticles embedded in liposomes and coated with antibacterial chitosan as a potential alternative to antibiotics for treating bacterial meningitis. The nanoparticles were tested for their ability to cross a model blood–brain barrier and kill E. coli, with and without magnetic guidance.

The authors studied the accuracy of two commonly used explainable AI techniques for detecting pneumonia in chest x-rays.

This study explored sunscreen storage temperature affects the efficacy of sunscreen to block UV light.

This study shows the efficacy of leveraging transfer learning, specifically from residual networks, to detect CVDs and possible signs of CVDs. The findings indicate that leveraging transfer learning from residual networks alongside medical professionals is a highly promising approach for CVD detection and diagnosis, warranting further investigation.
