Commented on Co-exposure to aluminium and cadmium mediates postpartum maternal variation in brain architecture and behaviour
Given the observed increase in oxidative stress and the influence on the brain-to-body weight ratio due to AlCl3 and CdCl2 co-exposure during pregnancy, is there a potential correlation between these findings and specific neuroendocrine or neurometabolic markers in the postpartum mothers?

Funding

Commented on Federated European Infrastructure for intensive care units' (ICU) data
The call envisions a comprehensive, secure, and interoperable EU-centric digital infrastructure for ICU data, geared towards optimizing patient care via AI integration, dynamic simulations, best practice exchanges, multilingual interfaces, with robust governance, stakeholder-centric sustainability, and an interdisciplinary training framework.

Article

Commented on Sericin for Tissue Engineering
Sericin, a hydrophilic protein found in silk, exhibits varying molecular weights, chemical structures, and biological properties depending on the extraction method, making it a versatile candidate for diverse applications, especially in the biomedical field, where it is being explored for burn dressing, drug delivery, and tissue regeneration such as bone, cartilage, and nerve regeneration.

Article

Commented on Tissue engineering in dentistry
The recent surge in guided tissue engineering methods for managing periodontal diseases signals a promising future, although challenges persist in achieving predictable reconstruction of teeth and their supporting structures, underscoring the urgent need for reproducible and clinically safe approaches given the substantial patient demand and potential for broader applications beyond craniofacial regions.

Commented on Unmanned anti-submarine and seabed warfare
These unmanned systems offer advantages such as reduced risk to human operators and the ability to operate in challenging underwater environments.

Hub

Commented on CAR-T
This is what I understand about the CAR-T cell therapy. It is an innovative approach that involves genetically modifying a patient's own immune T cells to target and destroy cancer cells. It has shown remarkable success in treating certain types of leukemia and large B cell lymphoma, offering a personalized and potentially curative option for patients who have exhausted other treatments.

Hub

Commented on Evidence Based Public Health
Epidemiological studies contribute insights that can influence public health policies and healthcare practices, though the extent of their impact varies. While practitioners consult these findings, translating research into effective policy, behavior change, and practice requires collaboration among researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and communication experts.

Hub

Commented on AI influence on labour, work, (un)employment
The widespread adoption of AI technologies requires workers to acquire new skills. Technical skills related to AI programming, data analysis, and machine learning become more valuable, while softer skills like critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity remain essential for tasks that AI cannot perform.
